The Shipwrecked Life

Acts 27:9-20

June 26, 2019 • Ben Martinez

Where do you run when life gets messy? Much like a physical shipwreck in the life of Paul, our souls can get shipwrecked too. Many times we try to avoid the wreck with things other than Jesus. We even attempt to sustain ourselves with good things like church. Jesus is the only one to cling to.

Pastor Ben has been the Senior Pastor of Calvary Chapel Lubbock since 2003. He loves teaching the word of God and has an incredible gift of evangelism. His heart is to see everyone saved and walking with Jesus. Ben and Nathalie have been married for over 31 years and have 2 grown daughters and one beautiful grand-daughter. He can be heard on his daily radio show "In-Christ Radio" throughout the Panhandle and West Texas.

Forgiven For Real

July 21, 2019 • James Grizzle

It's one thing to live as a slave not knowing that you are free. It's another thing to live as a slave knowing that you are free. Joseph forgave his brother, but they continued to live with the guilt of selling him into slavery. God used this story for good and was able to paint an elaborate picture of how He can use the bad in our lives for our own good. Our past is forgiven! Will you accept the forgiveness or will you continue to live as a slave knowing that you have been freed? Pastor James has been a part of Grace Church since 1997. Both James and his wife Nellie graduated from Calvary Chapel Bible College. He served at Grace from 2002 to 2015, when the Lord called James and his family to Galveston, TX to start Calvary Galveston. James and Nellie have been married for over 18 years and they have 4 children. James loves traveling, reading, and all sports, especially surfing and paddleboarding.

All Things New

July 10, 2019 • Quint Betts

There will be a day when God will make ALL things new. There will be a New Heaven and a New Earth, and there will be a New Jerusalem. But before the new can come the old must pass away. God will get rid of death, sorrow, and pain for those who believe in the saving grace of the blood of Jesus. Those who do not accept this salvation will be cast into Hell to die eternally. Be an overcomer and not a coward! Pastor Quint Betts accepted the Lord in 1990 and has been serving the Lord ever since. He is originally from Riverside, California and married Yolanda in 1995. They have 3 children, Mephibosheth, Grace, and Joshua. Quint attended the School of Ministry at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa in 2007 – 2009. The Lord called Quint and his family to Clovis, NM in 2010. He is the Senior Pastor at Calvary Chapel Clovis.

Temple Training

July 14, 2019 • Doug M. Gehm

The Jews were sent back to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple, but all they did was make excuses and those excuses turned to compromises. Haggai came to tell them to "put their heart on the path," and get the job done! God has a purpose for you as His temple. Put your heart on the path (Consider your ways), stop making excuses, and get your job done. Pastor Doug has been on staff since September 2005. He currently oversees all aspects of ministry at Grace. Doug attended and graduated from Calvary Chapel Bible College in California, England, and Spain. He is married to Kimberly and they are blessed with four children. Doug enjoys reading, cold weather, and sports.
