Calvary Chapel Bremerton - Sunday Service

Pastor Rick Beaudry explores 2 Corinthians 4:7-18, examining how God uses our brokenness and suffering to reveal His power through us, comparing believers to clay pots containing the treasure of Christ within. He challenges the prosperity gospel mindset, explaining that suffering is a normal part of the Christian life and an opportunity for God's light to shine through our weaknesses. Through personal stories and biblical examples like Gideon and Paul, Beaudry demonstrates how yielding to God's power and purpose while maintaining an eternal perspective helps us triumph in trials, ultimately bringing glory to God through our broken lives.

Pastor Rick Beaudry explores how we reflect God's glory through our lives by examining 2 Corinthians 4:1-6. Drawing from the story of The Elephant Man, he illustrates how God transforms us from feeling like societal outcasts into beloved children who reflect His light. Through powerful examples of early Christians like Stephen and Paul, Beaudry shows how maintaining unwavering faith and allowing God's light to shine through us can impact those around us, even in the face of persecution and trials.

Pastor Rick Beaudry explores how looking to Jesus transforms us, focusing on 2 Corinthians 3:12-18. Through Christ, we receive a changed hope that shifts our trust from ourselves to Him, a changed heart that enables genuine transformation from within, and a changed holiness that gradually conforms us to His image. The message contrasts this divine metamorphosis with modern technological attempts at human transformation, emphasizing that only Jesus can provide true, lasting change that prepares us for eternity.

Pastor Rick Beaudry explores how we become living epistles - walking testimonies of God's transformative work in our lives. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 3, he contrasts the external nature of Old Testament law with the internal change brought by the Holy Spirit, emphasizing that true ministry comes from God's sufficiency rather than human credentials or abilities. Through personal stories and biblical examples like Moses and Paul, Beaudry illustrates how God often uses the humble and broken to demonstrate His power, writing His truth on human hearts rather than tablets of stone.
