His Chosen Friend
John 15:9-17
Pastor Rod Schorr
Gospel of John
"...and you are my friends if you do what I command you." Jn 15: 14 Let's face it: we are living in an increasingly 'friendless' world, as we stare into our screens and withdraw into our 'safe spaces'. What this sad and isolated human race needs is a friend; a true friend! And--oh, how wonderful!--Jsuus Christ is the One!  Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA From his series: The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie

You Can't Lose
John 15:1-8
Pastor Rod Schorr
Gospel of John
"I am the Vine, you are the branches." Jn 15: 5 How profound the loss that comes to those who sever themselves from God! That's what Jesus came to solve! He came to be the vine if you will be the 'branch':and with a 'connection' like this, you can't lose! Let's take a look.  Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange CA.  From his series: The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie.

A Major Renovation
John 14:12-31
Pastor Rod Schorr
Gospel of John
"He who believes in me, the works I do he will do also, and greater works than these..." Jn 14: 12 The life of the new believer in Christ is not a 'repair job'. It's not self-reform. There are no band-aids, stitches or slings; but total and thorough healing. There is no duct-tape, bondo, or superglue. No! It's a major renovation. Everything about it is new! Welcome to the study of it... Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA   From his series: The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie

Goodbye to the Troubled Heart
John 14:1-11
Pastor Rod Schorr
Gospel of John
"Let not your heart be troubled...." Oh if ever there was a time for such advice, that night in the Upper Room was it! But...can we really do that? Do we have control over a 'troubled heart'? Oh you do, dear one! If you know Him, you can say 'goodbye' to the troubled heart! Let's learn it!  Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA    From his series: The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie

That Radical Commandment
John 13:31-38
Pastor Rod Schorr
Gospel of John
"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another as I have loved you." Jn 13: 34 "All you need is love..." go the lyrics of Lennon and McCarthy. It's "what the world needs now", according to Mr. Bacharach. That's a wonderful sentiment, but just pointing out the need doesn't make it happen. Poets and philosophers have been doing that for centuries with no results...until...until Jesus came!

The Glory of that Darkest Hour
John 13:18-38
Pastor Rod Schorr
Gospel of John
"...when Judas had gone out, Jesus said: 'Now the Son of Man is glorified...'" Jn 13:31 We are at the Last Supper in our Scripture this morning and what a dark night it is! A betrayal is underway. The betrayer has 'gone out' to set in motion our Savior's crucifixion. But how shocking what Jesus says of this moment: "Now the Son of Man is glorified..." What on earth did He mean?  Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA  From his series: The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie

Your Lofty Calling
John 13:1-17
Pastor Rod Schorr
Gospel of John
...you ought also to wash one another's feet". Jn 13:14 Of all the things our Savior could have left for us to do, this one staggers the mind! He didn't tell us to build a 'mega-church'; He didn't tell us to anoint ourselves as 'prophets', 'priests', 'popes' or 'miracle workers'! No! Upon His departure, he commanded us to serve others! To "wash one another's feet".  Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA From his series: The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie.

Rejecting the Rescue
John 12:37-50
Pastor Rod Schorr
Gospel of John
"I know that His command is everlasting life." Jn 12: 50 When Christian faith becomes unpopular, how do you respond? Doesn't a sweeping rejection of God argue something 'wrong' with God? If 'all the world' rejects Him, shouldn't you reject Him too? Oh, get ready! Here in his final farewell to the 'critic s', Jesus sets the record straight on all that.  Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA From his series: The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie
