Human Doings:

A Study Through the Book of Galatians

(April 2023 – Present)

People have a tendency to swing to one extreme or the other: either to ungodly legalism and control, or to freedom that indulges sinful flesh. Paul’s letter to the churches of Galatians addresses the need to come back to the center: the Gospel is not about what we do or don’t do, but rather who we are in Christ.

  • Part One: Human Being, or Human Doing?
    Are you burdened with knowing what rules you need to follow to be a good enough Christian? Pastor Timothy Warholic digs into Galatians 1 about the freedom that is lost when we shift our focus onto “doing” rather than “being.”
  • Part Two: Anathema!
    Do you ever question if you are truly saved? Have you ever felt overwhelmed by countless rules that make you feel like you are doomed to fail? Pastor Timothy Warholic digs into Galatians 1 about how the gift of salvation is given with no strings attached.
  • Part Three: Divine Invention!
    How can we tell that the Gospel wasn’t invented by flawed people? How can our testimony reveal that the Gospel is set apart from other faiths? Pastor Timothy Warholic digs into Galatians 1 about how the Gospel is contrary to anything humans could create apart from the divine.
  • Part Four: The Culture Factor
    Do you ever feel pressured in doing things the “right way,” whether by the church or by the culture? Have you been told you aren’t a “real” Christian unless you do certain things a certain way? Pastor Timothy Warholic digs into Galatians 2 about cultural influence,  legalistic ritual, and the boldness to confidently say you are saved in Christ.
  • Part Five: I Pledge Allegiance
    What does it mean to be saved by faith? What purpose does the Law have in relation to faith? Pastor Timothy Warholic digs into Galatians 3 about the Greek translation of “faith” and how, while we aren’t saved by works, our faith inevitably invokes action.
  • Part Six: Be. Family.
    What changes when we become children of God? What is different about being a part of God’s family? Pastor Timothy Warholic digs into Galatians 4 about our transition from slaves to adopted heirs.

Israel:

An Archive of Lessons from the 2023 Tour

(February 2023)

Every year, Paradise Calvary Chapel looks forward to taking a team to tour the Holy Land. As the team visits historical sites, leaders of the trip open up Scripture to look at relevant passages. It is so beneficial to be able to put cultural and geographical context to the Scriptures we read every day. In 2023, some of these sermons and historical studies were recorded in hopes that they’ll bring greater understanding to familiar passages.

  • What’s Up with Israel?
    After returning back to the United States, a few members of the team share about their experience. Grace Warholic shares a timeline of Israel’s history from Abraham to present day, and Paster Timothy Warholic shares through Romans about the promises and significance associated with Israel.

Despite our culture’s push for individualism, the church was always meant to be a body.

  • Part Three: The Apostles’ Doctrine:
    Paster Timothy Warholic shares through Acts 3 about the importance and impact of God’s Word on our lives, and how one of the enemy’s favorite tactics is to make us question it. 
  • Part Four: Fellowship
    Paster Timothy Warholic shares through Acts 3-4 about koinonia fellowship, and how actively participating in each other’s spiritual growth gives opportunity for us to unite with God and see His wonderful works. 
  • Part Five: Breaking of Bread
    On Paradise Calvary Chapel’s 9th anniversary, Paster Timothy Warholic shares through Acts 6 about the breaking of bread: what it symbolizes, why it’s important, and how it takes work. 
  • Part Six: Prayer
    Paster Timothy Warholic closes the series by sharing through Acts 6 about the conversational nature of prayer, and the power that can come from it.

The Means of Human Flourishing

In this two-part miniseries, Pastor Jeremy Bair delves into the doxology of Romans 16, examining four means by which we can be shaped into Christians with firm faith and flourishing spirits.
