This past weekend, we kicked off “Vision 2023: Get in the Story.” During this special two-week vision series, we began hearing about the amazing story God is writing here in South Florida through Calvary and how you can be part of His work. As Calvary enters a new season with a single-minded focus on increasing the number of disciples in South Florida over the next five years, Pastor Doug taught about the importance of walking in the vision God gives you, encouraged us to dream big, and shared where God is leading us and how He’s called us to get there.

Watch the video below to see a few highlights from the teaching and share it with your friends via social media. To watch the message in its entirety, click here.

Let’s recap some of the key talking points from Pastor Doug's message this weekend:

It's never too late to get in the story!

Quote to Remember: Ask yourself . . . What does God want to do here? What part can I play?—Pastor Doug Sauder

A LOOK AHEAD

In week four of our five-week class on communication, Pastor Chris Baselice of our Plantation campus will go in depth on how to have difficult conversations. Discover how to say the hard things, and how to confront, rebuke, and correct a brother or sister in love and truth without having a critical spirit.

This weekend, each campus will hear from their pastor about how God is calling their campus to carry out Vision 2023. What does Vision 2023 mean for Plantation, Boca, or Hollywood? What projects will Boynton, West Boca, and North Lauderdale focus on? How will your campus seek to increase the number of disciples and saturate your city with the gospel of Jesus Christ? How can you get in the story? All of these questions, and more, will be answered in service.
