Next Steps

Following Jesus is a journey with like-minded friends consisting of numerous next steps over a lifetime. Many have reduced Christianity to a decision made once that doesn’t affect real life at all. The New Testament has a radically different vision for the followers of Jesus: a journey taken one step at a time, sometimes taken with shaky legs, that slowly but surely positions us to experience the eternal kind-of-life right now.

Calvary exists to help you on your journey of discipleship.

We want nothing more than to see you flourish as a disciple. What we have learned is that the Christian life is nearly impossible alone.

Let’s journey together.

On this page, you will find various opportunities for you to take your next step with the Lord at Calvary. If you do not find what you are looking for, please contact us and we will do all we can to help you!

Membership @ Calvary

We want to recapture the original purpose of membership in the church. In the early church, if you wanted to join a local congregation you had to go through a rigorous catechism of learning and training. ALL IN is a small-group experience for people interested in becoming a member at Calvary.

Tell Your Story

When God moves in our lives, we have an amazing story to tell. As a community, we love when God moves in the lives of our community. We want to hear your story, celebrate it and remember it along with you. Maybe you recently received the Lord as savior; maybe you have been a Christian for decades and have experienced a season of mercy; maybe you found mercy in the valley of the shadows; maybe you have grown in some significant way; maybe you are more in love with Jesus more than ever before. Your story will bless this community and honor the Lord. Share your story
