Calvary Church Bergenfield

John 2: 1-11

John 3:22-30

What can we, the church, learn about our roles and our leaders roles in the Kingdom?

Philippians 1:3-6

Thanking God for the partnership in the Gospel, and knowing He will be with you until the end.

Romans 12:9-21

What does it mean to be the Church? What does it mean to strive forward together as the Body of Christ? This passage is the means by which the church goes forward.

Romans 8:31-39

Things may be hard. Things may look rough. In Christ we are enough. Through Christ we are more than conquerors. What does that even mean? How do we navigate that in Today’s world?

Hear the word from our Pastoral Candidate Joe Skaret.

Colossians 2:6-8

When we are rooted in are Christ, we are secure. It is the only place we are secure. So let us grow our roots into the promises and Hope we have in Jesus.

1 Peter 2:9-10

We are God’s called proclaimers of his grace, mercy and love. We have been called out of darkness and into the Light of his grace. May we proclaim the excellencies of our God.

2 Timothy 2:1-13

If we are faithless, he is faithful. May we remember the faithfulness of our God to his wildly unfaithful people.

Matthew 9:35-38

Hear the word from our Guest Speaker Brandon Pangman

Matthew 28:1-9

The sound of the Empty Tomb is the sound of God’s condemnation towards the believer. What hope, what joy we have as we sit in the truth and the hope of the resurrection and the Love of our Lord.

Matthew 27:11-26

The sound of the shouting mob is that of voices raised in condemnation of Jesus. There is power in words. What warning is that for us? And what hope do we have when we have raised our voices, joined them with the shouting mob?

Matthew 26:69-75

The sound of the crowing rooster is the recognition of our sinfulness. The recognition of how we failed him. How do we feel when we hear that rooster crow? What hope is there for us?

Matthew 26:47-56

The sound of stomping feet is the sound of our sins being brought to Jesus. How do we feel about that? How are we doing with that?

Mathew 26:36-46

To the sound of crying tears we see Jesus suffering in the garden. He is crying tears. Alone. He asks God to take this cup of wrath from him. And yet he submits to the Father’s will. For our sake. Because of his love for us. How does this encourage us? What does this mean for us?

With the breaking of bread a promise is kept. What does this breaking of bread, this meal, mean for the believer? What hope do we have in the breaking of bread?

With the clinking of coins the decision is made to betray Jesus. In what ways have we betrayed our Savior? How much like Judas are we? Is there hope for the betrayers?

Like Hosea’s wife, God’s people have committed adultery. They have run from him to the sins of the flesh. And yet, God instructs Hosea to not give up on Gomer, just as he will not give up on his people. In Hosea 2 we see the people rebel. And then God ‘lures them into the wilderness’. And in that Wilderness is the hope that we cling to. Intimacy with God is restored. In that Wilderness, all will be made right.

Job is a godly man whose life is torn apart. In one day he loses much of his wealth, and then he loses his kids. His kids are taken from him by a ‘great wind that sweeps in from the desert, from the wilderness’. This leaves Job in a Wilderness of his own. How does Job respond? What can we learn from this man of God as we face our own times of suffering, as things that we love are taken from us?
