Lytt til Calvary Church Bentonville

The resurrection isn’t just a moment in history—it’s the heartbeat of our hope. In this message, we unpack how culture had started to reshape the Corinthian church’s beliefs about life after death, and how Paul brought them back to the truth: the Gospel is only complete when we respond to it. Jesus died, was buried, and rose again—and because He lives, we have the promise of life beyond the grave.

This message takes us to the heart of Jesus’ final days—a journey from palm branches to the cross. As the crowd shouted “Hosanna!” and welcomed their miracle-working Messiah, they didn’t yet understand He came not just to save them—but to be Lord over their lives. With powerful storytelling and personal challenge, this sermon asks a timeless question: will you follow Jesus when the celebration fades and the cost becomes real? He’s not just calling for our praise—He’s calling for our hearts.

The early church in Corinth was passionate and spiritually gifted, but often missed the mark when it came to unity, maturity, and love. In this message, we explore how the gifts of the Spirit are meant to edify the Body—not elevate individuals—and how God calls His church to pursue order, clarity, and Christ-like love above all. Through Paul’s guidance in 1 Corinthians 14, we’re reminded that a Spirit-led church must also be a Word-anchored church. Even in our imperfections, we can reflect the perfect love and purpose of Christ when we let every gift point back to Him.

In scripture, Jesus performed miracles to demonstrate his divine power and compassion, healing the sick, raising the dead, and calming storms. These miracles affirmed his identity as the Son of God and revealed God's kingdom on earth. While Jesus' earthly ministry ended, Christians believe that he continues to perform miracles today through the Holy Spirit, answering prayers, providing healing, and transforming lives. His power remains active, bringing hope and restoration to those who believe.

In this message, Family Pastor Justin Jeter dives into the story of Daniel and his friends in Babylon, exploring how small, intentional choices can shape our identity and faith in a world that constantly pressures us to conform. Just as Daniel set his heart to remain faithful to God despite the overwhelming influence of Babylon, we are challenged to set our hearts today—standing firm in our beliefs and resisting the subtle pulls of a world that seeks to redefine us. Whether you're a parent, a young person, or anyone in between, this message encourages you to make the daily decision to stay true to God’s calling, no matter the cost.
