202. John 20:11-18 The King is Risen! Part 4 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 12-18-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. Today we continue in the Gospel of John, Chapter 20 as Pastor Phil shares how Mary Magdalene sees the risen Lord! Had He not told them what was to come? Yet in the moment Mary didn't recognize Jesus. Pastor Phil explores this and other instances. Why didn't The Lord reveal Himself yet? Today Pastor Phil examines in concert with John 20:11-18 the Gospel of Luke, Chapter 24 that gives even more details of the disciples' response to the death of Jesus. They had lost their hope, as they forgot His promises.. Jesus meets them where they are, on the road and opens their eyes, as they were blinded by their circumstances and despair. Where is our hope? Who is our focus? Have questions? If you would like to know what it means to be a Jesus follower reach out to us at: KNOWGOD.CCELKGRO

201. John 20:11-15 The King is Risen! Part 3 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 12-11-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. Today we continue in the Gospel of John, Chapter 20 as Pastor Phil shares how Mary Magdalene sees the risen Lord! Had He not told them what was to come? Yet in the moment it seems His words had not registered that He would give up His life, and in three days, rise again... Pastor Phil challenges us to ponder Jesus' question to Mary, "Whom are YOU seeking?" (John 20:15) And Jesus asks in Matthew 16:15, "But who do you say that I am?” That is THE most important question we must ask ourselves and answer... Is He your Savior, your Master, your King of King and Lord of Lords? Who is sitting on the throne of your heart today? If He is not Lord of all in your life, He is not Lord at all in your life...

200. John 20:1-10 The King is Risen! - Part 2 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 11-13-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. Today we continue in the Gospel of John, Chapter 20. Pastor Phil makes an interesting point today, in that we should be accountable for knowing what we know when it comes to scriptures, as we must be able to intelligently share the reason for the hope that is in us when asked. Today we discuss the Resurrection. "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear." 1 Peter 3:15 Today he shares a more detailed perspective on the resurrection of Jesus, to more fully equip us and dispel the falsities that still circulate today on what happened to Jesus after He was crucified... Did He swoon? (faint) Did the disciples wisk away His body? Was it grave robbers? Pastor Ph

199. John 20:1-8 The King is Risen! - Part 1 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 11-13-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. Today we begin the Gospel of John, Chapter 20. We can only imagine what the disciples were going through having just witnessing the crucifixion of their Lord and King. But put yourself in the shoes of Peter when Mary Magdalene runs up and tells him that the tomb is empty! You see death could not stop Him, and the grave could not hold Him—for He is Risen!! Just as the prophets had said... We read some of the most exciting words in scripture, from the mouth of an angel, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen! Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee, saying, ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.’ ” Have questions?

John 19:17 The Crucifixion of Jesus-Part 1 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 10-16-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. Today we continue in John, Chapter 19. THE HOUR HAS COME... We've seen Jesus stand trial in a religious court, and in civil court, He was beaten and wounded, just as the scriptures said... But today, Pastor Phil takes a closer look at Simon, likely a Jewish man on pilgrimage to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover. His day would end far differently then what he may have planned as the Roman soldiers gave him the task of carrying the Cross for Jesus to Golgotha.

194. John 19:6-16 Jesus on Trial-Part 6 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 10-9-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. Today we continue in John, Chapter 19. The hour had come. Jesus stood before Pontius Pilate, while the chief priests mocked and cried out, "Crucify Him!" While Jesus reminded them, "You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above. Therefore the one who delivered Me to you has the greater sin.” The chief priests and religious had clearly missed the mark! How many throughout history have done the same. Mocked Him, and laughed at those who love and follow Him? Let's join Pastor Phil now for Part 6 of his message, Jesus on Trial. Have questions?

193. John 18:38-19:5 Jesus on Trial-Part 5 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 10-2-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. Today we finish John, Chapter 18 following the morning of Jesus' arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane. He had faced the religious trial, but now faces the civil trial. But Jesus wasn't the only person facing judgment at the hands of Pontius Pilate, but Barabbas. Jesus would soon face the most cruel, and grueling of all tortures through no fault of His own. Yet He went willingly, in obedience to The Father, and out of love—yet it is humbling & heartbreaking to know that He had to endure it all for each of us. It's been said, "Love held Jesus To The Cross." Today we get a glimpse of the opposite as the soldiers mock and beat Him... The Hour Had Come... Let's join Pastor Phil now for Part 5 of his message, Jesus on Trial. Have questions? If you would like to know what it mean

192. John 18:38 Jesus on Trial-Part 4 "What Is Truth?" Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 9-18-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. Today we continue in John, Chapter 18 and the final hours of Jesus' life before the Cross. The Hour Had Come... In today's message, Pastor Phil teaches on Jesus' trial before Pilate, the Roman ruler at the time. Scripture implies that Pilate was pulled in unwillingly into the plots of the Sanhedrin. He even pushed them to judge Jesus by their own Jewish laws, but they refused. Pontius Pilate even told them, "I find no fault in Him AT ALL!" Let's think on the question, "What Is Truth?" How does the Bible define it—and how does the world determine it? Let's join Pastor Phil now for Part 4 of his message, Jesus on Trial—What Is Truth? Have questions?

John 18:19-24 Jesus on Trial-Part 2 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 8-28-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. Today we continue in John, Chapter 18 and the final hours of Jesus' life before the Cross. The Hour Had Come... The cup of sorrows would soon be poured out as Jesus stands on trial for His life. Though He had the power to strike out, Jesus knew that He had The Father's business to carry out. Today Pastor Phil takes a look at Jesus' questioning before the Sanhedrin. In retrospect we may take issue at how much the high priests missed the mark when recognizing The King of Kings and Lord of Lords—but can we not say we were guilty of the same before we knew Him?

Today we continue in John, Chapter 18 and the final hours of Jesus' life before the Cross. The Hour Had Come... The cup of sorrows would soon be poured out as Jesus stands on trial for His life. Though He had the power to strike out, Jesus knew that He had The Father's business to carry out. Today Pastor Phil takes a look at Peter's denial of Jesus. When Jesus gazed on him across the courtyard, what was on his mind? Perhaps, "I've failed you God and must not be Yours." Knowing our Lord, He looked on Peter with love and compassion, as He knew Peter's shortcomings. Just like He knows ours. Let's join Pastor Phil now for Part 1 of his message, Jesus on Trial.

Today we continue in John, Chapter 18 and the final hours of Jesus' life before the Cross. He knew what lie ahead, and the cup of sorrows to come—and yet He did it all for us anyway out of love... Judas was one of the Twelve. He walked with Jesus for many years— sat under His teachings and yet when the time came, He betrayed Jesus.

John 17:22-26 With Jesus Behind The Veil-Part 19 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 7-24-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. In Jesus' final hours He prayed to the Father for Himself, His Disciples, and all believers yet to come. These were the most important things on His heart and mind. As we wrap up Chapter 17 we see Jesus praying for all believers to come. He prayed as He desired we'd love Him above all else, walk in The Spirit, and seek out those who are lost—all for the glory to The Father. As Pastor Phil sums up His prayer for us he brings out three points of most importance to Jesus. 1. Unity 2. God's Glory and 3. Agape' Love May every day of our walk with Him be focused on Jesus' desire for us. Have you opened your heart to Him? Has He become your Lord and Savior? Have questions?

We become one with Him and one another when we are born again. Made brand new. Jesus commanded that we love one another and demands unity in the lives of believers. This was on Jesus’ heart in the last few hours of His ministry. We should listen. Simply~lo

John 17:14-19 With Jesus Behind The Veil-Part 17 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 6-19-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. In Jesus' final hours He prayed to the Father for Himself, His Disciples, and all believers yet to come. These were the most important things on His heart and mind. What should be predominant in a believers mind? To love The Lord our God with our heart, soul and mind. A divine, dedicated love. We are to love a Supreme God, supremely. Jesus reminded us in His last hours how much He loved us. Will we show our love for Him? He loved us enough to lay down His life for us. He demonstrated it purely. His Word promises, "draw near to God and He will draw near to you." But also we must examine our hearts continually to walk obediently. The Spirit transforms us to live out righteous lives. "Lord we desire that you are our First Love. Enable us Lord to love You supremely, walk o
