About Calvary

When I see those words I visualize a church that has one concern, to demonstrate Jesus to the world.

The Bible tell us that God loved you and me so much that he sent Jesus to die for us so that we might spend eternity with him.

The message of Calvary's love is wrapped up in what Jesus did for us.  He didn't have to die on our behalf.  He didn't have to give His life.  He could have made another choice.  But, because He loved humanity... Because He sees us as His highest and most chosen of all creation...  Jesus made the volitional choice, out of love, to die on a cruel, inhumane, Roman cross so that the price for sin would be paid.  Because of His love (the love demonstrated on Calvary) and His sacrifice, we have eternal life in Him!

That's what we are striving to be at Calvary Baptist Church.  Not only do we want to share what Jesus has done and the love He demonstrated, but we also want to express that same love to everyone who enters our doors.  I John 4:10 says, "And this is love; not that we loved God, but that he loves us and sent his Son to pay the price for our sin."


Matthew 6:33

10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

-Ephesians 6:10-18 (NIV)
