We want more from relationships — more passion, more connection, more happiness. But instead we often get more conflict, more distance, more quitting. Jesus talks about anger, lust, and divorce — not to restrict love, but to protect it. There is more than surface-level romance.

Parents feel it every day — the pressure to do more, give more, protect more. But what if all that anxiety is pointing to something deeper? Jesus says, “Do not worry.” Not because parenting is easy — but because your Father is good.If you’ve ever felt the weight of not being enough as a parent, this Sunday is for you. There is more than fear-driven parenting.Join us at 10:00 am as pastor Justin teaches through Matthew 6:25–34!

Everyone believes, everyone hopes, and everyone doubts. The question is where will you place your faith. Pastor Justin challenges us to question why we choose to trust some things with no evidence while at times dismissing well documented facts. Did Jesus really rise from the dead, this Easter we are challenged to doubt our doubts. Join us for Easter Sunday at 9 am as Justin teaches on the Resurrection of Jesus through John 20.

This Sunday in Mark 8:22–38, Jesus heals a man in a way that’s strangely gradual—then immediately asks a question that’s still the big one: Who do you think I am? What follows is not religious fluff; it’s Jesus challenging our obsession with control, comfort, and image, and offering a different kind of life that actually holds up. If you’re curious about Jesus but allergic to churchy talk, come to Calvary—this passage is honest, intense, and way more relevant than you’d expect.

This Sunday in Mark 6:14–29, the story turns dark—power, image-management, guilt, and a leader so afraid of looking weak that he makes a decision he can’t take back. It’s a brutal, surprisingly modern look at what happens when fear runs your life and truth becomes negotiable. If you’ve ever wondered whether Christianity can handle the real world (not just the inspirational parts), come to Calvary and hear this story—and why it still matters.

In Mark 6:1–13, Jesus is rejected in his hometown because people think they already know him, and their familiarity keeps them from faith. He then sends the disciples out with simple instructions to preach repentance, cast out demons, and heal—showing that God works through ordinary people who depend on him.

Most of us treat life like an endless scroll—lots of information, very little clarity. In Mark 4:21–25, Jesus says two sharp things: you don’t light a lamp to hide it, and what you pay attention to is what grows in you—and if you ignore the important stuff, you don’t stay the same, you slowly lose it. If you’d like your life to feel less reactive and more grounded, come to Calvary this Sunday and hear why Jesus thought attention is a spiritual (and very human) battleground.

Jesus meets two kinds of pressure every parent knows: the public kind where you’re supposed to keep it together, and the private kind you don’t talk about. A respected leader—used to being the competent one—has to admit he can’t fix what’s happening to his daughter, and he risks his reputation to ask Jesus for help. At the same time, a woman who’s been quietly losing for years reaches out in desperation, hoping a small moment with Jesus could change everything. This week Pastor Justin covers Mark 5:21–43!

This week Kyle Osland takes us through Mark 6:45-52. Jesus goes up on the mountaintop to pray after feeding the five thousand, while the disciples begin rowing for Bethsaida. The Sea of Galilee sits in a rift valley, where wind storms can quickly arise, a frequent challenge for local fishermen. Only the bigger fear this time, is that Jesus comes to them walking on the sea.

God always provides for His children, yet it demands eyes of faith to discern His unwavering faithfulness amid the shadows of dark times. True understanding blooms not in abundance alone, but in the subtle grace that sustains us through every trial. Join us as guest preacher Markel Croston shares from Mark 6:30-44, Mark 8:1-21.
