In Act 5 of God’s story, we discover that the mission of God didn’t end with Jesus’ resurrection—it continues through us today. Acts 5 shows that God provides everything needed for his mission by giving us the Holy Spirit, he fulfills his promises to bless all nations through Jesus, and he sends his people to bear witness to the risen Christ. We are not spectators in God’s story; we are participants. Wherever we go, we are sent as ambassadors of Jesus.Subscribe for More: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdBjWoX3iFFfi7rhni6iUxQ?sub_confirmation=1Learn More on Our Website: https://www.calvary-church.comFollow Us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania and Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania#calvary #church #christian #sermon #message #souderton #quakertown #pennsylvania

As we continue our series The Story – Our Place in God’s Plan, we turn to Act 5: God Sends. From the beginning, God has been on mission – not to recruit helpers, but to rescue people. When God sends, we see his heart for people that are helpless and hurting. In Matthew 9:35–38, we see the heartbeat of that mission – the compassion of Jesus that moves him to heal, save, and send.Subscribe for More: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdBjWoX3iFFfi7rhni6iUxQ?sub_confirmation=1Learn More on Our Website: https://www.calvary-church.comFollow Us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania and Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania#calvary #church #christian #sermon #message #souderton #quakertown #pennsylvania

As we continue in The Story we arrive at Act Four - God Appears. God has always been present, but he now appears in human flesh, in the birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus. One of the best examples of the heartbeat of Act Four - is the Transfiguration of Jesus in Matthew 17. Carlos Velez shows how Jesus reveals God’s glory, bridges the gap between us and God, and calls us to new life. As we see the truth of who Jesus is we understand that there is nothing we can place above Jesus in our lives.Subscribe for More: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdBjWoX3iFFfi7rhni6iUxQ?sub_confirmation=1Learn More on Our Website: https://www.calvary-church.comFollow Us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania and Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania#calvary #church #christian #sermon #message #souderton #quakertown #pennsylvania

In Acts 6:1–7, the early church faced division and real need, and their Spirit-led awareness led to action that brought restoration and protected the witness of the gospel.

We all long to be encouraged, but even more, God calls us to be encouragers who strengthen others in their walk with Jesus. In Acts 11, we see how God’s grace was at work in the early church, turning persecution into growth, building up new believers, and sending out generosity that fueled mission far beyond their city.In this message, Brad McKerley unpacks what biblical encouragement looks like. True encouragement comes from being changed by God’s grace, pointing out his fingerprints in the lives of others, speaking words that strengthen, and living generously so the gospel continues to spread.Discover how you can see grace, share grace, and spread grace this week in your home, church, and community.Subscribe for More: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdBjWoX3iFFfi7rhni6iUxQ?sub_confirmation=1Learn More on Our Website: https://www.calvary-church.comFollow Us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania and Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania#calvary #church #christian #sermon #message #souderton #quakertown #pennsylvania

Accountability isn’t about control, it’s about community and commitment. It’s how we walk together in grace, truth, and humility. Honest community creates space for restoration, support, and growth.In this message, Steve Sauers unpacks the rhythm of accountability as part of God’s design for discipleship. It restores us when we fall, helps carry one another’s burdens, and keeps us humble before God. When we live in honest, grace-filled relationships rather than hiding and shame, we not only grow stronger in Jesus, but we show the watching world the beauty of the gospel.Subscribe for More: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdBjWoX3iFFfi7rhni6iUxQ?sub_confirmation=1Learn More on Our Website: https://www.calvary-church.comFollow Us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania and Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania#calvary #church #christian #sermon #message #souderton #quakertown #pennsylvania

Blessed to Bless (Acts 3)What happens when God’s blessings don’t stop with us, but flow through us to others?

What does true worship really look like? In this message, Charles Zimmerman unpacks a powerful truth: worship isn’t a song or a moment, it’s a whole-life response to who God is and what he’s done. Through stories across Scripture, he challenges common misconceptions and offers a biblical definition: seeing God accurately and responding appropriately. From Moses and Peter to the Samaritan woman and Lydia in Acts 16, worship begins with a moment of recognition—catching a glimpse of God’s holiness, grace, or power—and leads to a personal response, whether it’s surrender, obedience, or awe. The rhythm of worship is part of our Three Relationships Discipleship model as we grow in relationship with God. It’s not just about music or a church service. Worship begins by creating space to see God accurately—so we can respond appropriately, with our whole lives.Subscribe for More: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdBjWoX3iFFfi7rhni6iUxQ?sub_confirmation=1Learn More on Our Website: https://www.calvary-church.comFollow Us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania and Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania#calvary #church #christian #sermon #message #souderton #quakertown #pennsylvania

Are you tired from the relentless pace of life, burdened by responsibilities that never seem to let up? In this message, Brad McKerley shares the comforting invitation of Jesus in Matthew 11, an invitation to step into the rhythm of rest.This kind of rest goes deeper than a nap or a vacation. It’s the soul-level peace that comes from coming to Jesus with our weariness, exchanging our heavy burdens for his light yoke, and learning to walk in step with him. In the book of Acts, we see the early church live out this rhythm, even in chaos and suffering, because they trusted the one who leads.The rhythm of rest is part of our Three Relationships Discipleship model, how we grow in relationship with God by pausing regularly to declare that he, not productivity, rules our lives. Jesus offers more than a pause, he offers a person, a path, and a peace that changes everything.Subscribe for More: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdBjWoX3iFFfi7rhni6iUxQ?sub_confirmation=1Learn More on Our Website: https://www.calvary-church.comFollow Us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania and Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/calvarychurchpennsylvania#calvary #church #christian #sermon #message #souderton #quakertown #pennsylvania

In the book of Acts there is an ever present setting of prayer in the early church. Prayer was the way that normal, imperfect people connected with an almighty, powerful God. Prayer was the starting point for when decisions had to be made, for when hardships were faced and for every other part of the church’s everyday life. In this sermon we continue to look at the rhythms of Three Relationships Discipleship as we take a look at prayer. Prayer is talking, listening and responding to God. We will take a look at how the early church was a praying church. And in this examination we will learn that the church today needs to be a praying church as well. Join us as we learn about how we can live out the rhythm of prayer together as a church.

In Acts 16, we see how one Spirit-led moment of engagement helped launch the church in Europe. God opened Lydia’s heart, and in turn, her hospitality created space for the gospel to take root in the lives of others.In this message, Carlos Velez unpacks the rhythm of engagement: welcoming others into your life and intentionally participating in theirs. It’s not about having the perfect words or a polished plan. It’s about being present, living with intention, and trusting God to do what only he can.Three Relationships is our discipleship model at Calvary Church. It’s centered on growing in relationship with God, the church, and the world. It’s not a to-do list. It’s about living in step with Jesus through real love, trust, and purpose. The rhythm of engagement is one way we live out our relationship with the world. One invitation, one conversation, one step of obedience at a time.Submit a Prayer Request: https://www.calvary-church.com/prayerNew to Calvary?

Sharing your faith doesn’t require a stage, just a willing heart. Whether it’s a moment like KidFest, where over 1,000 kids heard the gospel, or a quiet conversation in your everyday life, the rhythm of sharing invites us to live and speak in ways that point others to Jesus.In Acts 8, Philip responds without hesitation, reveals the truth about Jesus, and repeats the mission wherever he goes. If your life has been changed by Jesus, you already have everything you need to help someone else meet him, too.About this Series:This summer at Calvary, we’re taking a fresh look at the spiritual rhythms that formed the first Christians. These weren’t religious routines or programs; they were patterns of grace that naturally flowed from knowing Jesus – habits like prayer, community, generosity, worship, and mission.Whether you’re in the midst of family life or learning to walk through a quieter season, these rhythms can help deepen your walk with Jesus. They’re not about doing more, but about living more fully…rooted in God’s story of redemption, and in step with Jesus in your everyday life.
