Patrick answers thought-provoking questions about the Eucharist, clarifying why its substance changes but the physical aspects remain unchanged, and relates this to philosophical and theological principles. He helps listeners who wonder if the Mass connects them to Calvary and the Last Supper, backs it with Scripture, and shares personal encounters with anti-Catholic sentiment, offering resources to strengthen faith and understanding. Joseph - As Catholics, we believe in transubstantiation. Why is it that the chemical bonds are not part of the substance? (00:47) Kathy - Are we with Jesus at the Last Supper during the Mass? (16:05) Andy – My family told me the Catholic Church was created for political gain. What do you think of this? They also accuse Catholics of preaching a different Gospel and that Protestants have the true Gospel. (18:59) Fr. Rocky talks with John Morales about his book, Mary at the Crossroads of History (35:10) Originally aired on 12/04/25

In this week's episode, The Captured Heart, we turn to Luke 2:1–20 and rediscover the heart of Christmas through the humble arrival of Jesus. From a crowded Bethlehem to a quiet manger, God reveals that true joy and peace are found not in comfort or circumstance, but in receiving and believing Christ. As the shepherds respond in faith and worship, we are reminded that Jesus is our Savior, our Messiah, and our Lord—inviting us to treasure Him above all else and allow our hearts to be fully captured by His glory.Support the showFind us at!

Pastor Ray Bentley points out the real dynamic of the judgment to come during the last days. The presence of God is restraining, holding evil back from its full, disgusting intent. So when we come down and it says, oh, God's going to, you know, here's this judgment. You know what the judgment is. All he does is he lets loose, he lets go and says, okay, who starts the wars?

Luke 2:1-10: The Perfect Christmas (Christmas 2025 Special Message) taught by Associate Pastor Justin Butorac on 12-21-25.

DAY 21 — Good FridayThe manger leads to the cross, where Jesus carried our sin and opened the way back to God. Today we stand at Calvary and reflect on the darkest day that became the world's brightest hope. Why is the death of Jesus truly “good”? Advent helps us see Christmas in the shadow of the cross.

The Rev. Sarah Bonay looks at how the promise of Immanu-el,' God is with us', given in the Isaian prophecy, is fulfilled by the saving grace of the miraculous child, Jesus, on the cross.

Was Mary standing by a tree at the Annunciation?   In today's Peace on Earth reflection, Fr. Jonathan Meyer explores Luke 1:26–38 and the powerful biblical connection between the Garden of Eden, the Annunciation, and Calvary.   Mary is the new Eve — where Eve disobeyed by a tree, Mary obeyed. Where Eve chose fruit that brought death, Mary chose the fruit of her womb — Jesus — who brings eternal life.   This reflection invites us to see: • Mary's “yes” as the reversal of the Fall • The tree of Eden fulfilled in the tree of the Cross • The Eucharist as the true fruit of the Tree of Life   A beautiful meditation on Scripture, symbolism, and the deep unity of God's plan of salvation.

Send us a textWhat does it actually mean to love as Christ loved?In Day 18 of Daily Devotions with Dead People – Christmas Advent, Cass from Her Theology shares a deeply confronting and searching devotional from Amy Carmichael, an Irish missionary who served in India for 55 years and rescued countless young girls from temple exploitation.Amy Carmichael's reflection, Calvary Love, is not sentimental or soft. It is a heart-examining series of statements that expose how easily our love falls short of the love displayed at the cross. Again and again she presses the question: “If this is true of me, do I really know Calvary love?”This episode invites listeners to slow down, examine their hearts, and measure their lives not by intention, emotion, or comfort — but by the self-giving, sacrificial love of Christ shown at Calvary.You'll hear:Who Amy Carmichael was and why her life still speaks powerfully todayWhat “Calvary love” truly looks like in everyday relationshipsWhy conviction is not condemnation, but an invitation to transformationHow fixing our eyes on the cross reshapes how we love, serve, forgive, and sufferThis is a challenging episode — intentionally so. But it is also deeply hopeful. Calvary love is not something we manufacture. It is something we return to again and again, allowing Christ's love to form us.If you've ever felt uncomfortable reading devotionals that feel too gentle, this one may be exactly what your soul needs.

Pastor Ray Bentley explains how Jesus was treated 2000 years ago and will be treated as the Last Days plan unfolds. What did Jesus receive when he came? He received beatings. He received a beard pulled from his cheeks. He received a crown of thorns on his head. And he was the creator of all things. Now he will receive power, which he is.

In this week's episode, The Joyful Heart, we turn to Luke 1:39–56 and witness the overflow of joy that follows a surrendered “yes” to God. As Mary visits Elizabeth, her response erupts in praise—magnifying the Lord for His mercy, His power, and His faithfulness. This passage reminds us that true joy is not rooted in circumstance, but in recognizing who God is and what He has done, inviting us to magnify the Lord and trust His promises in our own lives.Support the showFind us at!

Pastor Ray Bentley reveals a portion of Revelation where John, the earthly author, was tearful. John's tears represent the tears of all God's people throughout all the centuries. No wonder John wept so fervently. If no Redeemer could be found to remove the curse, it meant that God's creation was forever consigned to remain in the hands of Satan. But then all of a sudden, everything changed.

Send me a Text Message!Today we go back to our Calvary series...ONE CHRISTMAS. And it dovetails well with our regular series, "Come Lord Jesus." Because it's all about having one Christmas that Jesus will never forget. AND it's all about joy. You are pursued. You are invited. There are still empty seats around His table and around His table, the joy overflows! He's inviting us to a Christmas party that could change your world!

In this Christmas message, we unpack the line “He comes to make His blessings flow far as the curse is found.” From Eden to Bethlehem, Calvary to the New Creation, we see how Jesus breaks the curse of sin and brings restoration to every corner of creation. This sermon will deepen your understanding of the gospel story and renew your hope as we look toward Christ's return.

1 John 3:13-24: The Core of Christianity (Special Message) taught by Pastor Dave Rolph on 12/14/25.

The Rev. Dr. Meredith Hawkins teaches on Isaiah 35:1-10 on the Third Sunday of Advent.

We cry out for peace of mind and heart—anything to soothe our anxieties in a world of chaos or in a life that’s spiraling out of control. And there’re answers—really good answers that are easily overlooked or forgotten in all the turbulence—answers that will bring peace like you’ve never known…

Send me a Text Message!This will be my 31st Christmas at Calvary. 31 years of reading and preaching from the same old stories of Christmas, but to be honest, they never get old. What we celebrate at Christmas is so wondrously holy. The heaven's opened up and poured the uncontainable blessings and unmistakable presence of Immanuel God with us. Every year that I think I know it all, I'm reintroduced to the wonder and awe of that truth. And if you think about it, there are some pretty amazing Christmas stories filled with heaven on earth moments. So in this episode, as we take a break from Revelation, we're going to look at an  ordinary Joe, that probably doesn't have main character energy. But this ordinary Joe can teach us more than a little bit about faith!

Let's turn together in our Bibles to the book of Genesis, chapter 3, and focus our attention on verse 15. This is one of those pivotal verses in Scripture that has rightly been called the protoevangelium—the first announcement of the good news of salvation. In the King James Version, which we'll use throughout our study today, it reads: "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." Imagine the scene in the Garden of Eden just moments after the fall. Adam and Eve have disobeyed God, eaten the forbidden fruit, and now they stand before Him in shame and fear. The harmony of creation is shattered. Sin has entered the world, bringing with it death, curse, and separation from God. It seems as though Satan, working through the serpent, has scored a complete victory. Yet right here, in the midst of pronouncing judgment, God speaks a word of incredible grace—a promise that shines like a beacon in the darkness. This verse is the seed from which the entire message of redemption grows. It's the foundation for everything that follows in the Bible, pointing us ultimately to the Lord Jesus Christ. Today, I want us to unpack this promise carefully, phrase by phrase, and trace how it unfolds through Scripture. We'll see God's sovereign grace at work, the conflict between the two seeds, the suffering and triumph of the Savior, and what it all means for us personally. My prayer is that as we study this together, we'll gain a deeper appreciation for the gospel and a stronger confidence in God's unbreakable plan. 1. The Divine Initiative: "And I Will Put Enmity" Notice first who takes the initiative here. God says, "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman." The "thee" refers to the serpent, and as Revelation 12:9 and 20:2 make clear, this is none other than Satan himself: "And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him." God doesn't command Adam or Eve to start fighting the devil. No, He declares sovereignly, "I will put enmity." This is pure grace from beginning to end. Fallen humanity, left to ourselves, has no natural hostility toward Satan. In fact, we're at peace with him and at enmity with God. As Ephesians 2:1-3 reminds us: "And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others." And Colossians 1:21: "And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled." By nature, we love the darkness and hate the light (John 3:19-20). But when God plants this enmity in a heart, everything changes. The one who once listened eagerly to the serpent's lies now becomes his enemy. This is the beginning of regenerating grace—the Holy Spirit turning a heart of stone into a heart of flesh. Think about it: Eve had just been deceived by the serpent, yet God promises to create hostility between them. From that moment, humanity is divided into two spiritual lines: those who remain friends with the serpent and those in whom God has worked to make them hate sin and love holiness. This isn't something we muster up on our own; it's God's doing. What encouragement this is! If you're a believer today, that enmity toward sin in your heart is evidence of God's grace at work in you from the very foundation of the gospel promise. 2. The Two Seeds: "Between Thy Seed and Her Seed" Next, God speaks of the ongoing conflict: "and between thy seed and her seed." Throughout Scripture, this theme of two seeds runs like a thread, dividing all humanity spiritually. The serpent's seed are those who belong to him by nature and choice. Jesus said it plainly in John 8:44: "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it." We see this line early on with Cain, who murdered his brother Abel. It continues through history: Pharaoh oppressing Israel, Haman plotting against the Jews, Herod slaughtering the innocents, Judas betraying Christ, and every unregenerate person who opposes God and His people. But there's another seed—the seed of the woman. This is unusual language. Everywhere else in Genesis, offspring is described as the seed of the man: Abraham's seed, Isaac's seed, Jacob's seed, David's seed. Why here "her seed"? Because this points to the virgin birth. The promised Redeemer would have no human father. He would be conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of a woman alone. Paul understood this clearly in Galatians 4:4: "But when the fulness of time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law." And Isaiah prophesied it in Isaiah 7:14: "Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel." This singular wording in Genesis 3:15 is God's early hint at the miraculous incarnation. The Champion who would defeat Satan would be fully human—born of a woman—yet fully God, without a sinful human father to pass on Adam's guilt. As we trace this promise, we see it narrowing. From the seed of the woman, to Seth's line, to Noah, to Shem, to Abraham (whose seed would bless all nations—Galatians 3:16 points this to Christ), to Judah (Genesis 49:10: "The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be"), to David (2 Samuel 7:12-16, the everlasting throne), to the virgin's Son in Bethlehem (Micah 5:2: "But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting"). Every type and shadow in the Old Testament points forward to this Seed: Abel's acceptable lamb, the ark preserving Noah through judgment, the ram provided for Isaac, the Passover lamb, the bronze serpent lifted up (John 3:14), the scapegoat bearing away sins, the daily offerings—all crying out, "The Seed is coming!" 3. The Conflict and Victory: "It Shall Bruise Thy Head, and Thou Shalt Bruise His Heel" Now we come to the heart of the promise: "it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." Note the pronouns carefully. In the Hebrew, it's singular and masculine: "He shall bruise thy head." This isn't a general conflict between groups; it's personal. One individual—the Seed of the woman—will deliver the decisive blow. The bruising of the heel speaks of real suffering. The serpent will strike, causing pain, humiliation, even apparent defeat. But a bruised heel is not fatal; it heals. A crushed head, however, is final—total destruction of the enemy's power. This is a preview of the cross and the resurrection. At Calvary, Satan bruised Christ's heel. From the manger onward, the enemy opposed Him: Herod's massacre, the temptations in the wilderness, the opposition of religious leaders, the demons' fury, and finally the horrors of Gethsemane and Golgotha. Philippians 2:6-8 describes the depth of this humiliation: "Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross." The eternal Son veiled His glory, entered a virgin's womb, lived as a servant, and died a criminal's death. On the cross, darkness covered the earth, and He cried, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" (Matthew 27:46, quoting Psalm 22:1). Satan seemed triumphant—the Seed was dead and buried. But the promise was only a bruised heel, not a crushed head. On the third day, Christ rose victorious! As Psalm 16:10 prophesied: "For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption." Hebrews 2:14 declares the result: "Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil." And Colossians 2:15: "And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it." At the cross, Jesus disarmed the demonic forces. Death's sting is gone for believers (1 Corinthians 15:55-57). Satan's head received a mortal wound, though he still thrashes about. The full crushing awaits Christ's return. Then, as Revelation 20:10 promises: "And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever." The King will return in glory (Revelation 19:11-16), and the ancient Eden promise will be completely fulfilled. 4. The Incarnation: God Manifest in the Flesh To accomplish this victory, the Seed had to become one of us. Galatians 4:4-5 again: "But when the fulness of time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons." 1 Timothy 3:16 captures the wonder: "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." The infinite God became finite, the eternal entered time, the Creator became a creature—yet without ceasing to be God. He who upheld the universe lay in a manger. This is the heart of the gospel: Immanuel, God with us. Personal Application: Living in the Victory What does all this mean for us today? Genesis 3:15 isn't just history; it's our story. By nature, we were all seed of the serpent—children of wrath. But if God has saved you, He has planted enmity in your heart toward sin and Satan. You've begun to hate what you once loved and love what you once hated. At the cross, Christ's heel was bruised for you, and Satan's head was crushed on your behalf. By faith in Him, you've passed from death to life, from darkness to light. Now we live out this victory daily. When you resist temptation, bear suffering for Christ, or share the gospel boldly, you're participating in the ongoing conflict—and the outcome is certain. Satan may bruise your heel through trials, slander, or temptation, but he cannot touch your Head, who sits at God's right hand (Psalm 110:1: "The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool"). So stand firm. The battle is the Lord's. The victory is already secured. And soon, the Seed of the woman will return to make all things new. May this first gospel promise encourage your heart today. The God who spoke grace in Eden is the same God who speaks it to us now through His Son. Trust Him. Walk with Him. Look for His coming.

Thefirst thing that we see as an evidence of spiritual maturity and spiritualgrowth is that we are Christlike in our attitude, actions and speech. Jesus wasalways submitted to the will of His Father. Read the Gospels. Jesus always didHis Father's will. This quote from Psalms is most descriptive of Jesus: “Ihad delight to do Thy will. Oh my God. Thy law is written within my heart” (Psalm40:8). That was the heart and mind of Jesus, my friend. That's what happens tous when we're submitted in obedience to the will of God. As Oswalt Chamberssaid in one of his writings.  We'vebeen perfectly adjusted to the fact that Christ lives in us, and we now know andlive in His righteousness. We're robed in that righteousness, and we want towalk with Him with all of our heart. It's a surrendered life, as Andrew Murrayput it. Thenwe see the second evidence of our spiritual growth is stability. We're nolonger children tossed to and fro. Today, we looking at the third evidence of our spiritual growth that wefind in verse 15: “But speaking the truth in love may grow up in allthings unto Him who is the head Christ”. The third evidence of spiritualmaturity is that we consistently “speak the truth in love”. Someonehas said that truth without love is brutality, but love without truth ishypocrisy. We somehow another, by the grace of God, can combine the two. Youmust have truth expressed in love. I love that verse in Psalm 85:10 where itsays, "Love and truth and mercy have met. Righteousness and peace havekissed." I believe this happened at the cross of Calvary. It was therethe truth of God, that we're sinners that our sin must be punished, met withthe love and mercy of God, as Christ died in our place for our sins. We now canbe set free from our sin and experience peace along with God's righteousness! Nowwe can speak truth out of a heart of love to those around us because we'veexperienced the love of God. 1 John 4:7-11 tells us where this love comes from:"Beloved, let us love one another. For love is of God, and everyone wholoves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God. ForGod is love. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God hassent His only begotten Son into the world that we might live through Him. Inthis is love, not that we love God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to bethe propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought to loveone another." Evidencethat we have spiritual maturity is that we can love, but we love in truth. We speakthe truth in love. We don't speak the truth to hurt, to condemn, todestroy, to tear down. We speak it in love to build up, to encourage, to help aperson get back on track. We speak the truth in love. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8tells us the kind of love that God has and that we should have. “Lovesuffers long. Love is kind. Love does not envy. Love does not parade itself. Isnot puffed up. Does not behave rudely. Does not seek its own. Is not provoked.Thinks no evil, does not rejoice in iniquity, rejoices in the truth, love bearsall things.” Whenwe have a heart that is surrendered and obedient to the will of the Lord GodAlmighty, we will have the mind of Christ, and we will speak the truth withlove. It will be evidence that there is something in our heart that's differentthan when the natural man is in control of our lives and tearing down anddestroying the lives of those around us as we see so often in Christian circles.God help us to have this mark of spiritual maturity, and spiritual growth, andthat is “speaking the truth in love”. Godbless!

Jesus came to orient all our attention on himself, ministering for us first on Calvary as our final Sacrifice and then in heaven as our final Priest.

Today, pastor Ray Bentley looks to revelation for the Lord's plan of redemption. The Book of Revelation has comforted the church that there is a plan. There is an unfolding of the divine will of the father in heaven. And the central theme is the sun. And it's going to a conclusion. And the conclusion is that the very title deed of the earth that was lost and forfeited is to be reclaimed spread.

A study in 2 Kings 10 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.

Pastor Ray Bentley offers a glimpse of angels, and it may be different than we think. You know, you have those little novelty shops and you go in and they have these chubby little babies that they call cherubs with little miniature wings and dimples, and they're really cute. Okay. That's fine. That's cool. But that's not what real cherubim look like.
