Godspeak Calvary Chapel

The Chief Cornerstone | 1 Peter 2:1–10 | Pastor Micah Stephens

Pastor Micah Stephens, senior pastor of Godspeak Calvary Chapel, delivers a powerful exposition of 1 Peter 2:1–10, teaching that believers are living stones being built into a spiritual house with Jesus Christ as the chief cornerstone. Using vivid construction imagery and personal anecdotes—like sorting warped 2x4s at Home Depot and the miraculous way a mother’s breast milk customizes antibodies for her baby—Micah urges the church to lay aside malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and evil speaking, to crave the pure milk of God’s Word like newborns, and to draw near to Jesus daily. He explains that only through Christ are we formed into a holy, royal priesthood offering acceptable spiritual sacrifices: praise, generosity, prayer, evangelism, repentance, and ultimately our whole lives as living sacrifices. In a culture that rejects the perfect cornerstone, believers are called to build everything upon Him—finding stability, belonging, and purpose—or stumble over Him in disobedience.

Never Stumble | 2 Peter 1:1–15 | Pastor Scott Bland

In a passionate post-Thanksgiving message fresh from the Holy Land, guest speaker (filling in for Senior Pastor Micah Stephens) unpacked 2 Peter 1, showing how every believer possesses the same “like precious faith” as the apostles through Christ’s righteousness alone. Sharing vivid stories from walking Hezekiah’s tunnel and floating in the Dead Sea, he reminded the congregation that Scripture is historically true and life-changing. The heart of the sermon was Peter’s promise: diligently adding virtue, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness, brotherly kindness, and love to our faith ensures we “never stumble” and live fruitful, grace-filled lives by partaking in God’s divine nature—transforming ordinary believers into bold reflections of Jesus in a watching world.

Walking through Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Moses, Rahab, and more, he reveals how every hero’s story was always pointing to Jesus—the better sacrifice, the better ark, the author and finisher of our faith—calling us to run the race looking unto Him.

Power Love And A Sound Mind | 2 Timothy 1:1-7 | Pastor Micah Stephens

In a raw and relatable message from 2 Timothy 1, Pastor Micah Stephens urges believers to abandon paralyzing fear and stir up God's gift within, drawing from Paul's prison farewell to Timothy amid impending execution. With humor from his elk hunt in Montana and a tender anecdote of his two-year-old daughter fearlessly launching off the coffee table into his arms after watching her siblings, Pastor Micah illustrates how observing God's faithfulness builds reckless trust. Tying to Godspeak’s anchored reading, he confronts cultural complacency, emphasizing remembrance of heritage—like Timothy’s grandmother Lois and mother Eunice—to fan the Holy Spirit's flame of power, love, and sound mind, culminating in communion's call to remember Christ's victory over the cross's "doom" for eternal joy.  Reference Verses 2 Timothy 1 verses 1–7, Genesis 15 verse 1, Luke 1 verse 30, Luke 2 verse 10, Luke 24 verse 6, Joshua 4 verses 1–7, 1 Samuel 7 verse 12, Philippians 4 verses 11–13, Philippians 3 verse 8, James 5 verse 16, Romans 11 verse 29, Acts 1 verse 8, Ephesians 3 verse 20, Proverbs 9 verse 10, Matthew 10 verse 28, 1 Corinthians 14 verse 33, Isaiah 41 verse 10 Make sure you subscribe to this channel and follow us on all our platforms to always stay up to date with our latest content!

Your Sanctification | 1 Thessalonians 4-5 | Pastor Scott Bland

Pastor Scott Bland, Godspeak’s youth pastor, delivered a passionate sermon on God’s will for believers: sanctification. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians, he emphasized that sanctification is not optional but a divine command to be set apart, transformed into Christ’s image through the Holy Spirit’s power. With humor and relatability, Bland shared personal anecdotes, like his wife’s medicinal honey remedy, and cultural references, such as neighborhood Halloween displays, to illustrate the battle against worldly conformity. He urged the congregation to rejoice always, pray ceaselessly, and give thanks in all circumstances, aligning with Godspeak’s anchored reading program and mission to live biblically in a dark world. The closing prayer called for surrender, trusting God’s faithful promise to complete His sanctifying work.
