Worship at Calvary

Everybody Dance Now

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2026 AT 10AM PST


Which is more faithful to God's Word: posting the Ten Commandments in a public school, or gyrating our groove things to C+C Music Factory's biggest hit? Let’s explore what the commandments are for, and what a handful of people writing new moral code for artificial intelligence might still learn from a mountain 3,000 years ago. 

Our next Worship Service on Sunday, October 11:

Exodus 19:3-7

3 Then Moses went up to God; the Lord called to him from the mountain, “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob and tell the Israelites: 4 ‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself. 5 Now, therefore, if you obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my treasured possession out of all the peoples. Indeed, the whole earth is mine, 6 but you shall be for me a priestly kingdom and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you shall speak to the Israelites.” 7 So Moses went, summoned the elders of the people, and set before them all these words that the Lord had commanded him.





Exodus 20:1-17


20 Then God spoke all these words,

2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery; 3 you shall have no other gods before[a] me.

4 “You shall not make for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above or that is on the earth beneath or that is in the water under the earth. 5 You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing children for the iniquity of parents to the third and the fourth generation of those who reject me 6 but showing steadfast love to the thousandth generation of those who love me and keep my commandments.

7 “You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not acquit anyone who misuses his name.

8 “Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work. 10 But the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; you shall not do any work—you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien resident in your towns. 11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but rested the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and consecrated it.

12 “Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.

13 “You shall not murder.

14 “You shall not commit adultery.

15 “You shall not steal.

16 “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

17 “You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, male or female slave, ox, donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

A Calvary Youth's drawing of Jesus with his disciples at the table
By Rev. Joann Lee • October 4, 2026
Communion reminds us that we cannot do life alone. And in today's scripture passage, Jethro reminds Moses that he cannot lead alone either. We are made for community. So join us around the Lord's Table and help us build community!
Story of Joseph (2004) - John August Swanson - a collage of colorful images displaying the story
By Rev. Marcella Glass • September 27, 2026
The stories of our ancestors in faith in scripture remind us that God's call on our lives does not guarantee an easy path. This week, we'll consider the story of Joseph, who faced great challenges and trials, and who also saved his people. Where is God in our lives?
A desert with footsteps in the sand
By Rev. Marcella Glass • September 20, 2026
Occasionally, our paths are clear and direct. Most often, though, my path has been circuitous, with fits and starts. It's easy to get bogged down and discouraged when the path is not straight and clear. We'll hear of Abram's journey by stages, and consider where God is in the midst of our own journeys.
