Dear Calvary Church,
Over the past number of months, we have been asking ourselves important questions about the future of the church. As the sands of culture continue to shift and the church adapts to new norms, we are continually challenged to re-articulate Truth—that holds all things together—the foundation of our community.
Throughout the Church Renewal Lab, Calvary has been listening to God’s direction for our future and last October revealed a new mission, vision, and values. Join us this winter as we unpack why we exist, who God is calling us to be, and how we will follow the Holy Spirit as the Future Church.
Join us Sundays at 9:30am!
Blessings,
Matthew Hochhalter
Pastor of Leadership & Care

Daily Devotional.
Over these 7 weeks, we’ll be collectively reading through the book of Romans to look back at the early church to listen for the Spirit's guidance as we seek to follow God in our renewed future as a church. As you read each scripture text, we encourage you to do so with the discernment question in mind. As God speaks to you through scripture, a thought, or a question, we encourage you to share that by emailing, calling, or visiting us in person.

Small Group Resources.
As we unpack our mission, vision, and values, we want to give small groups the resources to continue to discuss what is being talked about on Sunday mornings. Our weekly discussion guides can help your group ask questions that will create deeper conversations.
Grace
// Truth
Starting January 16.
This winter, we'll be living into our value of being "brave" by working through a 10-part Sunday School series called Grace//Truth 1.0 & 2.0. Centered around human sexuality, this series will prompt important conversations about our theology of sexuality, understanding cultural terms, and following the Jesus way-- who is the embodiment of both grace and truth. Participants are encouraged to pre-order books here.
