Calvary Church Bentonville

In a world full of uncertainty, the Bible offers us some unshakeable truths about God. We can know that He is a faithful friend who forgives and is never far from any one of us. Join us as Bishop Dean unpacks this powerful and comforting message.

Most of us hate to lose, but what if losing is the only way to truly win? In this message, we explore the story of the rich young ruler and the hard truth Jesus reveals: surrender is the pathway to eternal life. Real victory doesn’t come from holding on, but from letting go. Discover what it means to lose your life for Christ, and gain everything that matters.

Spiritual warfare is not just symbolic, but it is real, active, and happening around us every day. This message explores the three spiritual forces that every person will encounter and how Scripture reveals their influence in our lives. Through biblical insight and practical truth, we will learn how to recognize the battle, resist the enemy, and stand strong in God's power. Do not miss this eye-opening look at the unseen war shaping our world.

In one of the darkest seasons of Israel’s history, a man named Ethan picked up his pen and wrote a song—not of sorrow, but of unwavering faith: “I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever.” From the depths of captivity, he declared what many of us need to be reminded of today: God is faithful. Whether you're standing on a mountaintop or leaning against the cold wall of a prison cell, His faithfulness never fails. This message is for anyone who’s ever asked “Why, God?”—and still dared to worship in the waiting.

In this powerful message titled “Ark Bearers,” Rev. Murray Ray shares from Joshua 3:15–17, calling fathers to step into their God-given role as the priests of their homes. Just as the priests carried the ark into the Jordan River, fathers are called to carry the presence of God with purpose, even when the waters seem overwhelming. This message is a compelling reminder that when men lead with spiritual conviction, God makes a way for their families to follow.

In Luke 1:26–31, we find that with every divine blessing comes a divine burden. Bro. Murray Ray reminds us that the weight of our calling often matches the weight of our promise. Even when it's heavy, our response should echo Mary's: “Be it unto me according to thy word.” God’s favor may not always feel easy, but it is always purposeful.

What you focus on shapes what you see. In this message, we’re reminded that God’s presence, power, and purpose are often closer than we think, but we have to be looking for them. If you’re always searching for what’s wrong, that’s what you’ll find. But if you tune your heart to God’s goodness, you’ll start seeing miracles everywhere.

The world has never been more connected—yet anxiety is on the rise. In The Anxious Generation, Richard Goble unpacks how smartphones, social media, and cultural shifts are shaping our mental health. This message offers a powerful perspective on how the Church can respond with lasting hope and truth. There is peace to be found—even in an age of overwhelm.

Life gets busy, and we’re all prone to forget things—phones, keys... even the goodness of God. This message calls us to slow down and remember what truly matters: God’s faithfulness, His provision, and the power of His Word. When we forget who He is and what He’s done, we risk losing our gratitude, our purpose, and our fire. But when we remember, our hearts are reignited—and so is our worship.

What does it truly mean to be redeemed? In this powerful message, we explore a word we often sing and say, yet rarely stop to understand. Through the rich imagery of Psalm 107, we discover that the redeemed aren’t the flawless—they’re the wandering, the weary, the rebellious, and the overwhelmed who cry out to a merciful God. And the miracle? He hears, He responds, and He redeems—not with gold, but with grace.
