Calvary Revival Church

In the message titled, The Rhythm of Love, Pastor David reminds us that revival moves to the rhythm of God’s unstoppable love. Drawing from Romans 8, we’re reminded that if God is for us, nothing can stand against us—and He proved His love by giving His Son for our redemption. Through Christ, we are not only forgiven but made more than conquerors, secured forever in His grace. No fear, failure, or force in heaven or on earth can separate us from the love of God revealed in Christ Jesus. This is the rhythm that sustains our faith, fuels our revival, and keeps us moving forward—anchored in His unbreakable love.

Thanks to Bishop Brian Greene's message, Script Sure, we were reminded that God’s Word is more than ink on paper—it is living, breathed out by God, and profitable for every part of our lives. He showed how Scripture equips us by teaching us truth, warning us through reproof, correcting our faults, and training our hearts in righteousness.But as Hebrews 4:2 reminds us, the Word only transforms when it is mixed with faith. When we anchor ourselves in God’s Word and allow it to shape us, we gain the advantage of walking in His wisdom, power, and direction for daily life.

This week’s message, The Rhythm of Living (Romans 8:12-13), reminded us that as children of God, we are free from the pull of the sinful nature and invited into a Spirit-led life of discipline, relationship, and transformation. Pastor David and Pastor Lydia showed us how discipline is not about empty checklists, but about creating holy rhythms that keep us centered on Christ, even in life’s busiest seasons. Living in step with the Spirit affirms our identity, grows the fruit of the Spirit in us, and frees us from fear, doubt, and striving. This is the Rhythm of Living—walking in the Spirit, resting in relationship, and standing firm in our anointing.

In this week’s message, The Warrior’s Way, we journeyed through Romans 8 to discover how true strength is found in Christ and in living by the Spirit. Pastor David reminded us that in Christ there is no condemnation, no bondage to sin, and the gift of abundant life. The way of the warrior is the way of the Spirit—where the mind becomes the battlefield, sensitivity to God outweighs material distractions, and grace produces lasting fruit. Because the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives within us, we are empowered to walk in freedom, transformation, and resurrection power. This message is a call to rise, live by the Spirit, and embody the Warrior’s Way.

This past Sunday, our Senior Founding Pastor, Janeen McBath, delivered a life-changing message on The Rhythm of Praise from 2 Chronicles 20. She reminded us that while battles may come, victory is not won through our strength but through faith, worship, and trust in God’s word. Just as Judah’s praises released God’s power to defeat their enemies, Pastor Janeen showed us that our willingness to lift up a sound of praise can shift atmospheres, break strongholds, and turn battles into blessings. 

In “All Things Considered,” Pastor David Osborne reminds us that while the law reveals our struggle with sin, only Jesus brings true freedom. Life’s pauses and struggles may feel like setbacks, but God is still shaping us through them. All things considered, we don’t just need rules—we need a Savior. All things considered, we don’t just need rules—we need a Savior, and in Christ we find both redemption and rhythm for a revived life.

In this powerful message, Pastor David Osborne unpacks The Rhythm of Grace through Lamentations 3:22–23 and Romans 7:4, reminding us that revival begins when we align our lives with God’s unmerited favor. Just as music is shaped by rhythm, our spiritual lives find meaning and freedom when ordered by grace—not the exhausting demands of the law or self-striving. Drawing on Scripture, every day life experiences, and even powerful hip-hop testimonies from Virginia’s own legendary rap duo Malice and Pusha T, Pastor David shows how God’s grace empowers us to belong to Christ, live in freedom, and bear fruit through the Spirit.Revival isn’t about performance—it’s about living, moving, and having our being in the rhythm of God’s grace.

In his message “Leveling Up from the Inside Out,” Pastor Derrick Barbee reminds us that true transformation begins within, showing us how Jesus called ordinary fishermen not to “do” first, but simply to “be” with Him. Just as the Smurfs’ names reflected their true identity, Pastor Barbee explains that only God’s call defines who we really are—not the labels others put on us. With honesty and encouragement, he teaches that God sees us right where we are, calls us into authentic relationship with Him, and patiently works with us as we stumble, return, and grow. Real change, he says, is a process that happens from the inside out—when we let go of old nets, embrace God’s naming, and step into purpose that makes an eternal difference.

In his stirring message, “Win Anyway,” Dr. Bobby Manning challenges us to embrace unwavering faith in the face of trials. Drawing from Scripture and from personal stories like visiting a Lakers game, playing spades, and even Wrestling, Dr. Manning shows how Christians can triumph not by ignoring setbacks, but by leaning into God’s promises. Through seasons of difficulty, the Apostle Paul’s example surfaces—to rejoice in suffering, claim peace amidst turmoil, and activate hope that transcends circumstances. Dr. Manning reminds us that victory isn’t measured by earthly outcomes—it’s found in a posture of trust when we lean into divine purpose, pray with conviction, and keep moving forward. Whether today’s challenges feel heavy or hopeful, this sermon equips you to rise and WIN ANYWAY.

In his engaging and visually impactful message titled "Nail it",  Pastor Rodney Manley brought the Word to life once again—complete with his signature use of props on stage. Centering on  2 Kings 6:8-16 and Ephesians 6:10-12, Pastor Rodney walked us through a spiritual strategy for overcoming opposition and stepping into purpose.He reminded us to pray for permission like Nehemiah’s builders who worked with one hand and held a weapon in the other, to prepare ourselves through study of God’s Word, to move into position by facing the enemy boldly, and to receive promotion by living with compassion and service to others. This message wasn't just inspiring—it was a call to action for spiritual readiness, faith-filled positioning, and kingdom impact.

In his powerful and soul-searching message, “How to Catch the Real Thief,” Bishop B. Courtney McBath challenged us to transform our thinking so we can live in the freedom Christ intended. Using the story of a falsely accused jewel thief as a metaphor, Bishop reminded us that many of us are blaming the wrong people—or even ourselves—for the pain and setbacks in our lives. Drawing from Romans 12:2, Ephesians 6, and John 10:10, he made it clear: the real thief is the enemy of our souls, not our past, our boss, or our church. We must stop living in condemnation, stop arresting others, and most importantly, stop arresting ourselves. Instead, we are called to renew our minds, receive God’s grace, and fight back with the truth of God’s Word. When we finally catch the real thief—Satan—we can begin reclaiming all that he has stolen from us, sevenfold. It’s time to take back your peace, your purpose, and your identity in Christ.

In his dynamic message titled “Outsmarting the Opps,” Pastor Terrance Wilson took us to John 7:1–13, where Jesus navigates intense pressure, opposition, and misunderstanding—even from His own family. As the Festival of Tabernacles approached, Jesus’ brothers urged Him to publicly prove Himself, but He chose divine timing over public approval. Pastor Terrance reminded us that sometimes the greatest form of strength is restraint, and real power is found in walking in purpose—not performance. Jesus shows us how to move with wisdom in the face of threats, criticism, and spiritual opposition, demonstrating that God's plan will always prevail—even when it's not public, popular, or fully understood. When you’re on divine assignment, you don’t have to prove yourself—you just have to move with strategy, trust, and obedience.

In celebration of CRC's 35th anniversary, Pastor Richard Hilton delivered a heartfelt and powerful message titled “I Have You in My Heart,” centered on Philippians 1:3–7. Reflecting on the deep bond Paul shared with the church at Philippi, Pastor Hilton reminded us that ministry is more than moments—it’s about meaningful relationships built through financial support, friendship, and fellowship. He emphasized that we’re called to do life together: remembering each other with gratitude, praying with joy, and walking in deep, limitless love. When someone is in your heart, you set your affection on them, you share vision with them, and you sacrifice for their destiny. With joy woven throughout the message—just as it flows through Philippians—Pastor Hilton closed with the reminder that God is a Finisher, faithful to complete the good work He began in us. This message marked not just an anniversary but a reaffirmation of our calling to love deeply, dream boldly, and serve one another wholeheartedly.

In Heart Pt. 6, Pastors David and Lydia Osborne guide us through a transformative conversation rooted in Romans 6:15-18, challenging us to examine the posture of our hearts in light of God's grace. This message reminds us that grace isn't a license to sin—it's the power to live free from it. As believers, we are no longer slaves to sin but have been made obedient from the heart to sound teaching, becoming servants of righteousness. The conversation highlights how true transformation begins in the heart and continues through sanctification—a daily surrender that reshapes our habits, our thinking, and our relationships. Ultimately, this freedom leads to fruitful living and the gift of eternal life in Christ. It’s a powerful call to live with hearts aligned to God's, pressing forward in purpose and love.

In his powerful message Since Freedom, Pastor David Osborne explores Romans 6:14 and challenges us to truly live like people who have been set free by God’s grace. Drawing from both Scripture and the wisdom of Nelson Mandela, Pastor David reminds us that freedom isn't the end—it's the beginning of a new way of life. Since we’ve been freed from the dominion of sin, we are no longer slaves to our old nature. We’ve died with Christ and now live with Him, called to walk in righteousness and use every part of our lives for God’s glory. Freedom means more than casting off chains—it means choosing a path of holiness, transformation, and obedience. This message calls every believer to step into the power of grace and live like sin no longer has control—because it doesn’t.

In Grace and Peace, Bro, Pastor David Osborne brings a timely and empowering word from Romans 5:12–15, reminding us that while sin entered the world through Adam, an even greater gift—God’s grace—has come through Jesus Christ. Tying together the cultural weight of Paul’s New Testament greeting “grace and peace,” Pastor David challenges us to not only receive the gift of grace but to live in it and give it away. Grace is not just a concept—it’s power for today. As we surrender to God, our weakness becomes strength, chaos is exchanged for peace, and performance gives way to true transformation. This message calls men, fathers, and believers everywhere to walk in the divine grace they've been given and to be living witnesses of God's peace in a world longing for hope.

In We Need You, Pastor David Osborne delivers a powerful Pentecost Sunday message reminding us that the Holy Spirit isn’t optional—it’s essential. Rooted in Acts 2:1–4 and Acts 1:3–8, this message explores how the Spirit regenerates, sanctifies, and empowers us to live as bold witnesses in a world that desperately needs light. Just as God moved with fire and wind at Pentecost to birth the Church, Pastor David shows how we, too, are called to be filled, guided, and helped by the same Spirit today. Whether it's through truth, conviction, comfort, or power, the Holy Spirit is our Advocate—our Parakletos—and without Him, revival is impossible. This message is a call to embrace the fire and say, “Holy Spirit, we need You!”

In It’s Game Time, Pastor Rodney Manley uses the classic card game of Spades to deliver a powerful and practical message from Romans 5:1–5. Just like in Spades, winning in life requires strategy, discipline, and trust in your partner—God. Pastor Rodney challenges listeners to get into position with humility (Luke 14:10), play by the rules through obedience to God’s Word (Jeremiah 7:23, Psalm 119:115), and collect the books—claiming every promise and purpose God has for us (1 Peter 2:9). This timely message reminds us that when we follow God’s lead and stay in alignment with His will, we’re not just playing the game—we’re positioned to win.

In God Did Pt. II, Pastors David and Lydia Osborne continue SZN 2: Revival Through Reason with a compelling look at Romans 5:5–11. This message centers on the overwhelming love of God—a love that was poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, revealed on the cross, and restores our friendship with Him. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us, not to make us simply “better,” but to make us His. Pastor David and Pastor Lydia remind us that God's love is not only universal, but deeply personal, offering us more than religion—He offers relationship. Through this divine love, our joy is made whole, our faith is strengthened, and our hearts are awakened to the beauty of being known and loved by God. Because God did, we can now truly live.

In his powerful kickoff to SZN 2, Revival Through Reason, Pastor David Osborne delivers a faith-building message titled God Did, rooted in Romans 5:1–4. With bold declarations and deep biblical insight, Pastor David reminds us that everything we are, everything we've endured, and everything we hope for is possible because God did the work through Jesus Christ. From the tribulations that shape our endurance, to the character refined through trials, to the hope that rises from the fire—this message challenges us to reflect on the "why" behind our revival. No matter the circumstance, we can live, thrive, and move forward because God Did!
