As we examine our physical lives, there are things that are fundamental for a healthy life - things like: air, food, water, and exercise. The same is true with our spiritual life. There are specific components that are essential in order to live full and fruitful lives heading towards spiritual maturity, and ultimately, effective ministry.

So many things are "epic" now a days. Everything from movies to burgers have been labeled with the word but are we loosing the meaning? Can beef patties really be that huge? Can something really be epic? I'll tell you what,

Everyone exercises faith; the question is what are you exercising your faith in. Is it something that is solid? Is it something that is true? Because this is an issue that will affect us for all eternity, we need to make sure that the object of our faith is authentic, real, and genuine.

There are some pretty basic things we need to do to stay alive. We all eat, we all breath. This isn't anything new for anyone, I hope. The same is true with our spiritual lives. There are plenty of basic things we should have a grasp on in order to foster a healthy spiritual life. Tune in and lets learn how to live it to the fullest.

It's one thing to understand a biblical principle and quite another to apply that principle to our lives in a practical way. There are way too many life lessons in the bible to pass them up and not learn from them. Lets take a listen and learn how our spiritual forefathers handled this crazy life!

If we're going to talk heroes of the bible, I have to mention king David. Anyone who God considers a man after His own heart is someone we should look up to! In this new series we take a look at all the life lessons we can take from Davids story and see how we can apply it to ours. Listen up, this might help us with our spiritual How 2 problems.

It isn't hard to realize that we are right smack in the middle of the Christmas season! The malls are packed, the trees are up, the stress is here! In this hectic season, its easy to forget the reason. Why is there a Christ in Christmas? We are starting a brand new Christmas series on Life Radio and its going to be a healthy reminder of whats important about Christmas.

Join us for a new series of studies on LiFE Radio. There are certain elements that make up a Christian lifestyle. In this series, Pastor Pedro considers the basics of the faith. Subjects include Worship, the Bible, Prayer, and more. Join Pedro as he examines these core elements of the Christian life.

If you've been listening to LIFE FM you've noticed that we are right in the middle of our verse by verse study in the book of Colossians. Don't let this little book fool you, its big on wisdom and practical application.

Sometimes life can hit us like a freight train. It seems like out of nowhere we have can found our selfs right smack in the middle of a desert. We are going to be jumping into a series that is near to my heart, its a series about finding that spiritual oases when we are knee deep in the desert sand. Its about knowing that God is in control even though things seem to be out of it.

Life is confusing enough as it is. The book of James gives us practical insights into living everyday life God's way. This series of studies touches on how to handle temptation, how our faith translates into everyday life and how we are to speak and deal with those around us. This book will push you out of your comfort zone, convict you and rock your world. Prepare to be blessed and encouraged as you experience God working in you and through you.

This weekend we will be kicking off a new series of studies at CCk. We are going to be looking at the life of King David who in my opinion is one of the greatest bible characters that ever lived. There are so many rich and life-changing lessons for all of us to learn. This will be a great opportunity for all of us to invite friends and family to come to church. I am looking forward to all that Jesus is going to do in our lives as we soak in the lessons and insights from this great life. Look forward to seeing you all there! And if you can't join us in person, you can catch the livestream on the CCk Website by clicking here during the Central Campus service times.

This weekend we kick off a new series of studies in the Book of Jonah here at CCk. I am looking forward to all that God is going to do in our lives through these studies. For you see, there are many themes in the book of Jonah that will teach us, encourage us, and equip us to be the people that God has made us to be. We will get challenged and stretched all for the purpose of transforming and conforming into His image. My prayer is that God would do a great work in our lives personally and in our church corporately. I look forward to seeing you there! And don't forget to bring a friend!

This week on CrossThoughts we are kicking off a new series through the Book of Colossians. This week we will be looking at a message titled, Searching for Identity taken from Colossians 1:1-2.

Hey Everyone! I pray this post finds you blessed and at rest in the Promises of Jesus. I just wanted to let you in on what is happening this weekend at CCk. I will be teaching on a subject that all of us deal with. It is one of those Giants that all of us face in life. This weekend we will be looking at the subject of Worry. This is something that all of us have a tendency to engage in. All of us at some point or another find ourselves worrying in life. Especially in the day and age that we live in. No doubt, we are living in some troubling times. There are all kinds of things that have the potential of keeping us up at night. Well, this weekend, we will look at how to deal with it. I look forward to seeing you all at church. And as I always remind you, don't forget to bring a friend. All of us know people that need the Lord. All of us know people that are asking Life's questions. And I believe that God wants to use you in their lives to lead them to the Answer! May God Bless your efforts today as you seek to Impact your World for His Glory and for His Namesake!

Hey everyone! I pray all of you find yourselves blessed and at rest in the promises of God. I am in Southern California for our annual Calvary Chapel Senior Pastor's Conference in Murrietta. This year I came out early to speak at the Calvary Chapel Chino Valley Men's Conference. What a wonderful time it was. To hear men like, Pastor Chuck Smith, Pastor David Rosales, Pastor Raul Ries, Pastor Ken Graves, General Boytkin, and Victor Marx was truly a blessing. I was the only liability on the schedule ;) And then on Sunday I had the opportunity to speak at all the morning services at CCCV. Great church led by a great pastor. It was cool to see what the Lord is doing in that church. Thank you CCCV for such a great time!


I also had the opportunity to hang out with Greg and Cathe Laurie for a few days. I love them so much. I am looking forward to coming back out for this year's Harvest Crusade in Anaheim. It is the 20th Year Anniversary. It is going to Rock! And then yesterday, I connected with Don and Jean McClure. It was great hanging out with them as well. We all went to catch a movie and had dinner. We are looking forward to have Don and Jean with us at CCk in October. Can't wait. But anyways, I am off to the conference. See you all this Weekend as we continue our Elements Series!

I pray that this note finds you blessed and at rest in the promises of Jesus. I wanted to take the time to invite you out to CCk for our current weekend studies. We just wrapped up the book of James, are currently going through a five week series that I have entitled Elements and then will start the Life of David in 1 and 2 Samuel.

I decided to do a short series on the core elements of the Christian faith and consequently the core elements that are necessary if we are going to experience the life that we have been designed to live. Week 1, we looked at Worship. Week 2, we studied the importance of God's word. And next week we will look at.... Well, you'll have to attend one of our weekend services to find out. I am looking forward to what God is going to do in our lives as we go through these studies.

Currently, Lourdes and I are in the West Coast of Florida for a few days. We rode our motorcycle across the Everglades on US 41. It was a beautiful ride. We are looking forward to some time of just hanging out, reading the bible, walking on the beach, worshipping the Lord and thanking Him for His goodness. Love you guys. And I look forward to seeing you this weekend at church. I challenge you to invite someone to come. We are seeing God move mightily in drawing people into a relationship with Him! All by His grace!

This past week, I was in Montevideo, Uruguay with the Franklin Graham Festival team. It was amazing to watch God move in a country where there is a low percentage of Christians. It was one of the largest Christian events that the country had ever seen. It was awesome to see so many come to know the Lord.

Also, while in Montevideo, we had a chance to be a part of an Operation Christmas Child distribution. This is something that I never get tired of. I have been to many of these and I am moved every single time. Can't wait to see what the Lord is going to do this year through this outreach.

I was also stoked to hear that back at the ranch that Bob Shank did an amazing job. I had breakfast with him on Monday morning. I love that guy! I am sure glad that he serves on the board of directors of CCk. The Lord has truly blessed us with some really gifted people. I look forward to be back in the pulpit this weekend. We will be wrapping up the book of James. I look forward to seeing you all there!

This weekend was amazing at CCk. It was the beginning of a new season. Quite honestly, I didn't know what to expect this first week with the new service times and the new location. I thought for sure, at least one service would be a ghost town. Let me just say, the Lord proved me wrong. The services were all very well attended! We saw many make commitments to follow Christ at all the services. It definitely exceeded my expectation. The service at the CCk West Campus went amazing! It was a tremendous blessing to have the Rev. John Ferguson, whom the school is named after be there with us and close the service in prayer. He is 86 years old and has been serving the Lord for longer than I have been alive. It was awesome to hear the words he shared. All in all, it was a great day. The Lord has definitely blessed CCk with a great team of volunteers. I want to thank each one of them for their passion in serving the Lord. I thank the Lord for what He has done, but I look with Great Anticipation at what He is yet to do! See you on Wednesday!

Hope all of you are great! This past Monday, I got on a plane for a weeklong trip at the Dominican Republic. I am here with Samaritan's Purse and the National Operation Christmas Child Leadership Team.

I have had the privilege of leading the Team Devotions in the morning and then the even greater privilege of heading out and handing out Shoeboxes. By the time, we are done, we would have handed out 8k shoeboxes to kids in Santo Domingo.

It has been amazing. I never get tired of watching these kids receive these gifts. Many of them give their lives to the Lord. And many of them go through a discipleship program that further teaches them how to walk with God. OCC truly is an amazing opportunity to reach kids throughout the world. It is my privilege to be able to be a part of it. And the OCC team are completely crazy for the Lord. They are as passionate of a group that I have ever been around.

It is exciting to see what the Lord is going to do in the upcoming years through this world impacting ministry.
