Calvary Chapel of Philadelphia

I was raised as a kid in a Baptist church that was very “rigid”in the way they had worship on Sunday. It was nothing more then a religious gathering to me and I didn’t understand or care what the Pastor was saying. I was invited by a friend to Calvary chapel Philadelphia in 1989 when I was 18. I was amazed at how much different it was compared to what I “thought” church was. I was attracted to how Pastor Joe communicated the word of God and then suddenly Jesus became real to me through this church. I found a relationship with God instead of just a religious gathering of people. Thank you Pastor Joe and thank you Jesus for being real in my life!

I have been working on my personal relationship with Jesus for several years now at Calvary Chapel of Philadelphia. I just cannot say enough about Pastor Joe and his in depth, scholarly and simplistic approach to teaching the Word of God. Also, how his message went right to my heart. There are days where I know I was spoken to by Almighty God himself. I’m blessed to have found such great leadership and praise. The best worship team ever. Thank you my friend in Christ Jesus.

I’ve listened to Pastor Joe since the mid-1980s when I found Pastor Chuck Smith on the radio. Calvary chapel’s system of teaching through the entire word of God is the only way to connect all the dots of life. Pastor Joe is real (no flamboyant showmanship) and his teachings are effective for application in your life. I’ve never met Pastor Joe or even been to his church, however I consider him my pastor/mentor.

I used to listen to pastor Joe and Chuck Smith over the radio as a young adult and down through the years til later in mid years. My brother and sister-in-law started going to Calvary Chaple and brought me. To my supprise, and shock. A familiar voice , I heard. It was pastor Joe. I now go with my friend to Calvary Chaple of Philadelphia. Pastor Joe is now my pastor. Pastor Joe preaches directly from the scriptures in the Bible and is a true brother in Christ. He is inspired by God, and gifted through the Holy Spirit in his preaching of God’s Word. I love my church family and I am blessed everytime I attend there for meetings. I Thank God for Every one of my church family. Agape Love family of God. God’s Blessings. :)

Every time we visit family we go to CCPhilly for our service on Sunday and hear God’s Word by Joe Fosch. It’s a good teaching and we are in peace with the Lord on our drive home. I would recommend this Calvary Church. You will not be disappointed.
