Sermons on Love
In this concluding study of 1st Corinthians Pastor Barry asks if we love Jesus more now than when we began?

This study of 1 Corinthians Ch3 was given by Pastor Barry Forder on 3rd March 2024. G. Campbell Morgan said that examining this chapter was like “dissecting a flower to understand it.

This study of 1 Corinthians chapter 11 was given by pastor Barry Forder on 18th February 2024. In this chapter, the Apostle Paul clearly lays out God’s authority structure, how He intends it to be.

This teaching was given by pastor Barry Forder on 2nd October 2022 at Calvary Chapel Portsmouth. What is it that makes Calvary Chapel different from other Bible-believing, evangelical churches?
