Our Story

On July 3rd, 1955, at the first meeting of Calvary Church, six adults and eight children gathered in a home in Longmont to worship together. As Matthew 18:20 tells us, where just two or three gather in the name of Jesus, he is there in their midst. Although we’ve grown and the location has changed a few times since, by God’s faithfulness, people from all walks of life continue to gather at Calvary Church to worship Jesus together. And He is alive and present in our midst!

Today, Calvary Church offers Bible-based teaching for all ages in a variety of settings and groups, intergenerational and diverse worship, a respected Christian Counseling Center, multifaceted ministries of compassion, English and Spanish speaking congregations, mentoring based youth ministry and a long standing commitment to Global Partners (missionaries).

Calvary Church is affiliated with the Rocky Mountain Church Network and CB America.

Who We Are

Broken people being made new in Jesus, overflowing with gratitude and poured out for others.

Where We’re Going

Blessing and transforming lives and communities by following Jesus together.

What We Believe

The Bible

The Bible (Old and New Testaments) is the Word of God, without error in the original writings. It is truthful and trustworthy, reflecting God’s authorship through Spirit-controlled human personalities. It is the supreme and final authority in all matters of faith and conduct.

Psalm 19:7-11; Matthew 5:17-19; II Timothy 3:16-17; II Peter 1:19-21

God

There is only one true and living God, eternally existing in three Persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (the Trinity), who are equal in every divine perfection, yet execute distinct but harmonious roles in creation and salvation.

Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 3:16-17; 28:19; Ephesians 4:4-6

The Father

God the Father is the first Person of the Trinity. He is the supreme ruler of the entire universe, perfect in holiness, infinite in wisdom, measureless in power, and boundless in love. To accomplish His divine purpose, the Father has, at His appointed time, sent forth both God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

Exodus 34:6-7; I Chronicles 29:11-12; John 14:26; 15:26; 1 John 2:1

Jesus Christ

God the Son, Jesus Christ, is fully divine and fully human.  He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, and lived a sinless life.  He died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose bodily from the dead. He appeared to many before He ascended into heaven where He intercedes for His people as Lord.  He will return to earth to rule according to His promise.

Isaiah 53; John 1:1-18; I Corinthians 15:3-4; Philippians 2:5-11; Colossians 1:15-20; I John 2:1-2; Revelation 19:11-16

The Holy Spirit

God the Holy Spirit is a Person who carries out the will of the Father and glorifies the Son. He exposes guilt and performs the miracle of new birth in an unbeliever. He indwells believers and intercedes for them, enabling them to live a godly life and equipping them with gifts for ministry.

Genesis 1:1-2; John 16:7-15; Romans 8:1-27; I Corinthians 12:1-11; Galatians 5:22-23; Ephesians 1:13-14

Angels

Angels are created spiritual beings.  Good angels worship and serve God as His messengers and minister to His people.  Evil angels, led by Satan, oppose God and His people. The destiny of evil angels is hell.

Genesis 3:1-15; Matthew 4:1-11; Hebrews 1:6, 7, 14; I Peter 5:8; Revelation 20:10

Human Beings

Human beings were created in the image of God to glorify and enjoy Him forever.  However, humans, yielding to Satan’s temptation, rebelled against the Creator, rejecting their sinless state and choosing instead a condition of sin, death, and alienation from God.  The evil in the world is the result of this rebellion. All human beings are born into this condition of sinfulness and choose to continue to live as sinful beings. Though possessing inherent dignity, all are depraved and in need of saving grace.  Those who trust the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation are forgiven of their sinfulness and can glorify and enjoy God now and forever. Those who refuse to trust Jesus Christ will spend eternity in hell, separated from God.

Genesis 1:26-31; Genesis 3:1-24; Psalm 8; Romans 3:10-26; 5:12-21; Revelation 20:11-15

Salvation

Salvation is offered as a gift of God’s grace and is received through faith in Jesus Christ apart from merit, works, or ritual.  The Lord Jesus Christ purchased this salvation through His substitutionary death for the forgiveness of our sins, defeating death through His resurrection.  Those who are saved are given new life in Christ to do good works. True believers are part of God’s family and He will never disown them.

Isaiah 53:4-6; John 3:16-18; Romans 6:23; 8:38-39; I Corinthians 15:1-4; Ephesians 2:1-10; I Peter 2:24

The Church

The spiritual body of true Christians is the Church, of which Christ is the head. This body expresses itself in local assemblies of believers who gather together under the authority of God’s Word for worship, instruction, fellowship, service and outreach. The church’s mission is to make disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ among all nations. At Calvary Church we practice the ordinances of believer’s baptism by immersion and the Lord’s Supper.

Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 2:41-47; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; Ephesians 4:11-16; Hebrews 10:19-25

Freedom

For those doctrines not stated above, we allow freedom of belief and the freedom to disagree in love.  However, we highly value unity and insist that members do not promote doctrines not listed above such that they cause dissension and division in the body.

Psalm 133; John 17:20-26; Ephesians 4:1-6, I Timothy 1:3-7
