Running time: (not available)
In an unexpected, un-planned Calvary Chapel series post-mortem, we take our cue from a recent Los Angeles Times article about Chuck Smith, Sr. and his son, Chuck Smith, Jr. The article solidified earlier critiques of the Chuck Smith/Calvary Chapel movement as market-driven and more concerned about reflecting happy cultural moods than the biblical faith.

Aug 26 Pastor John on What does it mean to be a Protestant? | part 1: Scripture alone
Ayin, You are correct, that the words "scripture alone" do not appear in the Bible; however, neither do the words "the church determines the canon" or "Papal infallibility" or "the assumption of the Virigin Mary" appear explicitly in scripture eith… continue reading »
Aug 25 Ayin on What does it mean to be a Protestant? | part 1: Scripture alone
I wonder if you could comment on the fact that "Sola Scriptura" isn't mentioned in the Bible. It seems that Catholics always use that arguement to prove that the Church is also authoritative. What do you say to them?… continue reading »

Calvary Chapel “market driven.” Some cue you choose to take. I’ve attended Calvary Chapel for 14 years and the messages have always come from books of the Bible verse by verse. Some of them are hard to hear, but they are not skipped no matter how unpopular that might make the message. Most of us appreciate that. Maybe you took your cue from the Chuck Smith Junior portion of the article.
