Calvary Church - Maumee

The reason Jesus came to earth, the reason He taught, and the reason He died and rose again was because of people. The love of people drove Jesus and His ministry. If we want to be more like God, we need to remember that people are the priority to Him. On Sunday, January 26, 2020, Pastor Chad Gilligan continues his sermon series, Life Change Initiative, and teaches how we can make people the priority in our lives as well.

Roots (1/19/20) by Calvary Church

In the Sermon of the Mount, Jesus showed us that prayer is more than the words we say, it's a call to action. It's a call to reverence. It's a call to forgiveness. And we need God's help and guidance to live accordingly. On Sunday, January 12, 2020, Pastor Keith Kurtz breaks down the Lord's Prayer and show us how to apply it to our daily spiritual walk.

Christmas Lights (12/22/19) by Calvary Church

Few people knew Jesus as the disciple John did. John was Jesus’ closest friend, the disciple whom He loved, a brother of His heart. Yet, when John wrote his gospel, instead of recounting the story of the manger, John reminds us of Jesus’ power and divinity from the very beginning. On Sunday, December 15, 2019, Pastor Chad Gilligan reminds us to go beyond the nativity story and make Jesus big this Christmas.

Three Questions for Christmas (12/8/19) by Calvary Church

“Everything is meaningless!” Nothing matters…and yet, somehow, in the end, everything matters. It’s where we focus our actions, thoughts, and attention that makes a difference. On Sunday, December 1, 2019, Pastor Chad wraps up his Sunday Drive sermon series by reviewing the lessons learned from the book of Ecclesiastes.

Life happens fast, and before we know it, our life will come to an end.

On Sunday, November 10,2019, Pastor Jordan Moore challenges us to shift gears when we face the prospect of our own mortality.

What Does God Want? (11/3/19) by Calvary Church

Eat. Work. Sleep. One hour later. One day done. One year gone by. Following our routines and schedules, we get so caught up in living our lives that we never question whether this is the best life we’re living. Our hours, days, and years are worth more than just the passing of time. On Sunday, October 27, 2019, Pastor Chad Gilligan gives us Four Rules to Live a Better Life.

When misery becomes a part of your daily life, it can be hard to see your life without it. Feelings of discontent, listlessness, and unhappiness become your constant companions. And, often times, we don’t even realize that it’s our own actions and thoughts that’s the cause of it, On Sunday, October 20, 2019, Pastor Chad Gilligan gives us three things that make us miserable.

People are everywhere. We see them every day: at the grocery store, at work, in our homes. But we are called to more than live alongside people; we are called to create and thrive in community. God never intended for us to live alone. On Sunday, October 13, 2019, Pastor Jay Heiss teaches the importance of community and our role as Christians to support and strengthen it.

Life is unfair. No one said it was going to be easy. No one said it was going to go according to plan. There will be people who will go out of their way to make your life miserable. That’s the bad news. We live in a fallen world of selfishness, greed, malice, and every kind of evil. But just as there is bad in this world, there is also good. Good that can triumph over whatever you are facing. Good enough to heal, make you whole, and redeem your disappointments. On Sunday, October 6, Pastor Chad Gilligan continues from the book of Ecclesiastes and breaks down for us the Good News and the Bad News.
