Why exist if we're like every other church? We'd rather join others than take up space. In a special message drawn from Pastor Chuck Smith’s book Calvary Chapel Distinctives, Pastor Tim Molter reveals what makes Calvary unique as a vibrant, authentic expression of God’s heart. While we share common ground with other churches, our passion is fostering a living relationship with Jesus, not a lifeless religion. Calvary Distinctives Overview: God’s Model For The Church Church Government Empowered By The Spirit Building The Church God’s Way Grace Upon Grace The Priority Of The Word The Centrality Of Jesus Christ The Rapture Of The Church Having Begun In The Spirit The Supremacy Of Love Striking The Balance Ventures Of Faith To learn more, we encourage you to review our Beliefs and Statement of Faith, and read the Calvary Chapel Distinctives. Our hope is that once you know who we are and what we value, that you’ll desire to become apart of our church family.
