Calvary Chapel Haven

Pastor Jonathan walks through Acts 13 and the beginning of the church’s missionary movement, showing what happens when a church is surrendered and ready to be sent. As Paul and Barnabas step into what God has called them to do, they encounter both open doors and real opposition. Yet through it all, the Word of God continues to spread.

Pastor Jonathan walks through Acts 12, where James is killed, Peter is imprisoned, and Herod appears to be in control. Yet through it all, God remains sovereign and faithful.

Acts 12 reminds us what to do when life doesn’t make sense: pray when we can’t control the situation, obey when God calls us to move, and trust Him when we don’t understand what He’s doing.

In Acts 11, we see what happens when God’s grace truly gets a hold of a church. Grace makes room, makes disciples, and gives generously.

Pastor Jonathan walks through Acts 11 and challenges us to ask: What has God’s grace produced in me?

In Acts 10, God breaks down the walls that separated people from His grace. Pastor Jonathan walks through Peter’s encounter with Cornelius and shows us how God changes our hearts, challenges our assumptions, and calls us to carry the gospel beyond the boundaries we’ve built.

Following Jesus is about more than asking Him to bless our plans. In this message, Pastor Jonathan teaches through Acts 9:32-43, showing how Jesus transformed Peter into a man who learned to trust His leadership every step of the way. As we follow Christ, He not only leads us where He wants us to go, but also shapes us into who He wants us to become.

This week, guest teacher Travis Bianco walks through Acts 9, exploring the dramatic conversion of Saul and the faithful obedience of Ananias to reveal one powerful truth: God can use anyone. Through their stories, we're encouraged to never stop praying, stay ready for God's call, and trust that no one is beyond His redeeming grace.

When everything looks like it's falling apart, God is often doing His greatest work. Pastor Jonathan teaches through Acts 8, showing how God advances His gospel through persecution, unexpected places, and the ordinary obedience of His people.

Pastor Jonathan walks through Acts 7 as Stephen stands before the Sanhedrin and reveals a sobering pattern throughout Israel's history: God continually sent deliverers, yet His people continually rejected them. Discover the danger of resisting God's work and what it means to have a heart fully surrendered to Christ.

In Acts 6:8–15, Pastor Jonathan explores how a Spirit-filled life is not marked by comfort, but by faithfulness. As Stephen serves Christ with grace, power, and unwavering courage, he faces fierce opposition and false accusations. Yet through it all, the Holy Spirit transforms him to reflect the character of Jesus.
