God welcomes our honest questions about suffering, but calls us to trust in his character and his work… even when we don’t understand the details of his plan.

Worshiping anything other than God is dumb and won’t make you happy. When you have Jesus, you have all you need.

A church can believe and do all the right things and still be far from God. Jesus desires a revival of passionate love among us.

It is possible to find false comfort in religious practice. But outward observance by itself won’t change the untransformed heart. We need a Temple that will actually save us.

God exposes the sin in our lives as being not just simply a broken rule, but as an adulterous affair.  And yet, it’s in the image of a marriage that we truly see how much he loves us.

God gives us a message to proclaim to our times. Sin has serious consequences, but there is hope for the broken.

In a world of conflict and suffering, the flame of hope may appear to be just a ‘flicker’ that may fade. But because God rules history, it is a ‘glimmer’ that will grow.

Meditation from Calvary's 70th Anniversary Celebration on August 25, 2024

In a dangerous and hostile world, God invites us to remember who he is and what he does.

Santo Garofalo and his wife, Mary Ellen served as MNA church planters in Atlantic City for 13 years and are now MTW missionaries at Nuova Vita in Salerno, Italy. He grew up in Point Pleasant and first came to faith through the ministry of Calvary.
