"We strongly believe when the Bible speaks, God speaks."
At Calvary, we are committed to reading, studying, preaching, teaching, and obeying the inspired Word of God.
Presented by Senior Pastor John Munro, the exposition of Scripture is the foundation of our worship. To allow for a more comprehensive study and a deeper understanding, Pastor Munro often preaches in series form — with an in-depth approach by book or topic.
Pastor Munro's Bible preaching and teaching are also featured in The Verdict, Calvary's radio and podcast ministry. The 25-minute daily radio program challenges listeners as to their response (their "verdict") on the truth of Scripture. Pastor Munro also hosts a weekly podcast called Avizandum, with new episodes available each Tuesday.

Sundays at 9:45 AM
2,500 years ago, God placed a beautiful young woman in a position of great influence in ancient Persia in the midst of a conspiracy.
The Old Testament book of Esther tells a fascinating story with many twists and turns. With the increasing rise of anti-Semitism today, this study of Esther will give us a historical perspective and increase our understanding.
We must remember that God is always at work, even when we face seemingly impossible situations. Though His name may not be mentioned in this unusual book, God’s sovereign hand is everywhere.
This fall, join us on Sunday mornings at Calvary for Pastor John Munro’s message series on the book of Esther.
“And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” — Esther 4:14

Life can be difficult, unpredictable, and even frightening. Each day brings its own challenges and struggles. They threaten to defeat us, discourage us, and embitter us. Everyone, including followers of Jesus Christ, may feel overwhelmed. What are we supposed to do? How are we meant to handle all that life brings?
In this updated edition, Pastor Munro presents biblical encouragement to equip you for life's challenges. He offers scriptural perspective on questions including:
"Why does trusting God really matter?"
"How can I overcome my fears and anxieties?"
"How can I deal with grief?"
Print copies are available in the Word Room bookstore at Calvary ($5) while supplies last.
