We have seen God use smaller groups of people who meet intentionally for the purpose of growth in Christ. Jesus called each and every believer to grow in their faith and "make disciples" (Matthew 28:19). Growth Groups are designed to provide a space for this to happen. By gathering weekly to discuss the scriptures, share areas of desired growth, and time in prayer, our hope is that each person would be further "transformed into His image" (II Corinthians 3:18).
Jesus Famous is a ministry of Calvary Monterey.We long to see the fame of Christ. By fame, we mean His glory, His renown, or, to borrow from Colossians, His preeminence (Colossians 1:18). When Jesus is famous, everything changes and He becomes our passion, because His love is better than life.
When Jesus is famous in us, we love Him. We know Him and He knows us. We are captivated by His grace, His forgiveness, and His love.
When Jesus is famous among us, we grow in Him. Our motivations change in pursuit of the gospel. His Spirit transforms us into a loving community.
When Jesus is famous through us, we share Him. Jesus saturates our everyday rhythms and conversations. We are empowered to be on mission, serving those around us.
