You’ve heard them preach; you’ve seen them lead worship; but do you really know your pastors?

Where was Victor born? How did he end up in San Francisco and as the pastor of the Metropolitan Community Church? What brought him to Calvary?

Sermon 05.05.2024: For As Long As It Takes

By Rev. Victor Floyd • 05 May, 2024
Through Holy Communion, we taste and see a mysterious kind of love. This Sunday, we celebrate the inclusive, expansive feast that nourishes us as resurrection people and feeds us for the journey ahead as sinners and saints.

Sermon 04.28.2024: Resurrection People, Not Perfect People

By Rev. Joann Lee • 28 Apr, 2024
During this season of Easter, we have been going through a sermon series on being "resurrection people." But we are resurrection people, NOT perfect people. Resurrection people can still make mistakes, fail, fight, and flounder. But the good news of resurrection is that we can rise to try again. Have you made a mistake, fought with family, broken a promise, or done anything wrong since Easter? Join us on Sunday and experience grace, for we are resurrection people, and grace abounds!

Sermon 04.21.2024: God Needs Resurrection Publicists

By Rev. Victor Floyd • 21 Apr, 2024
When Paul and Silas preach the reconciling love of God in the capital city, the dominant society punishes them for "turning the world upside down.” Today, in our currently-irreconcilable culture, when we preach God’s inclusive love, we should expect no less! Shall the fundamentalists win? Or can God call on a more loving publicist, like you?

Sermon 04.14.2024: Witness to Life

By Rev. Marci Glass • 14 Apr, 2024
Today we'll hear the story of Stephen in the Book of Acts. He's known as the first martyr for the Gospel. The root of the word 'martyr' comes from the word 'witness'. Maybe we can't all be (or don't want to be) martyrs, but what does it mean to take our witness seriously?

Sermon 04.07.2024: Fixing Our Attention

By Rev. Marci Glass • 08 Apr, 2024
Today begins a month of stories from the early, post-Easter church from the Book of Acts. In today's story, Peter and John heal a man outside the Temple. The man was begging for money. Peter offers him something else, if only he'll fix his attention to see it.

Sermon 03.31.2024: Easter 10am - Completing the Story

By Rev. Marci Glass • 31 Mar, 2024
Mark's account of the resurrection doesn't include an appearance by Jesus. The gospel originally ended with a preposition, surely causing his 8th grade English teacher to weep. Mark's gospel ends with the women fleeing the tomb in terror. But that's not the end of the story. How often are our lives like that? When have you had a chance to write a different ending to a part of your story?

Sermon 03.28.2024: Maundy Thursday

By Rev. Marci Glass • 28 Mar, 2024
As we think about peace, it is important that we don’t only see peacefulness and quiet as the goal. Peace often requires a stand. Sometimes conflict is required to break through injustice so you can get to peace. If we want to be blessed as peacemakers, we will need to stand in solidarity with the oppressed, to stand in opposition to the violence and injustice of the world, and to know that peace can only come from deep love, the kind of love you have to summon for those you don’t know, don’t understand, or don’t like.

Sermon 03.24.2024: Palm Sunday - A Nonviolent Peaceful Protest

By Rev. Joann Lee • 24 Mar, 2024
The events of Palm Sunday flew in the face of all that seemed civil and polite for an occupied state of the Roman Empire. How dare this Jesus and his common followers mock the imperial parade celebrating the power and plunders of war? Who was this Jesus that compelled the people to wave palms and throw their cloaks on the ground in welcome? Join us on Sunday as wave our palms, sing our hosanna, and meet this Jesus who comes riding on a colt.

Sermon 03.17.2024: Lent 4 - Peaceful But Not a Pushover

By Rev. Marci Glass • 18 Mar, 2024
As we think about peace, it is important that we don’t only see peacefulness and quiet as the goal. Peace often requires a stand.
