Let's Be Church - Calvary Bible Church

Let's Be Members - 1 Corinthians 12:12-30

July 30, 2023 • Pastor Chris Casoni • 1 Corinthians 12:12–30

In our individualistic society, Church membership is often quickly dismissed as unnecessary or an obstacle for people to experience God’s love. As we understand what God has called us to be as a church, we will quickly realize that Scripture lays out clear examples of a committed God welcoming believers into a committed family. A temple has bricks. A flock has sheep. A vine has branches. And a body has members. Church membership is not simply a record of a box we once checked or a sentimental feeling. It should reflect a living commitment.

Let's Be Growing People

July 23, 2023 • Pastor Chris Casoni • Hebrews 4:12, Colossians 4:12, Matthew 4, Hebrews 10:24–25, Revelation 4:11

Disciples of Jesus grow in maturity as they are shaped by His presence and Word. Let’s be a church that grows personally and corporately as we enjoy the power of His Word, the comfort of His presence, and Hope of His promise.

Let's Be Attentive

July 16, 2023 • Pastor Chris Casoni • Luke 22:19, Matthew 26:26–30, 1 Corinthians 11:23–30, Romans 6:5, Galatians 3:26–28

As God's people, we are called to remember and proclaim Jesus' work and person as our identity.

Let's Be a Called-Out People - 1 Peter 2:9

July 9, 2023 • Pastor Chris Casoni • 1 Chronicles 29:17, 1 Peter 2:9, Romans 9:24, Ephesians 4:1–7, 1 Thessalonians 4:7

As God's called out people, we have an identity to live from, a community to belong to and a way of life to live in.

Let's Be Church - Acts 2:42-47

July 2, 2023 • Pastor Chris Casoni • Acts 2:42–47

Our God invites us to be a gathered people who delight in His presence. This morning we will look at the early Church as they responded to the message of the Gospel and experienced God’s presence in the form of His Spirit TOGETHER. There is much for us to know, think, feel, and do as we seek to understand what it means for us to BE church.
