Calvary Omaha :: Worship Encounter Audio Podcast

Do you ever feel like life is running at a pace your soul can’t keep up with? In Live a Quiet Life, Pastor Ben Norvig teaches from 1 Thessalonians 4 and 5 to remind us that a life of steady joy, prayer, and gratitude is more than possible—it’s powerful. In a world chasing more, Paul invites us to choose less noise and more presence. This kind of quiet life isn’t passive; it’s full of intentionality, Spirit-led wisdom, and others-focused love. This week, slow the scroll and clear the clutter so you can truly experience God’s best for your life!

Have you ever tried to build something without reading the instructions? When we ignore the instructions, we often find ourselves with something that is broken. In New Marriage, Same Spouse, Pastor Mike O’Connell teaches from Ephesians 5 and challenges us to follow God’s instructions as we build our marriages. When we lean into the Lord’s design for marriage and love our spouses the way Christ loves the Church, we will truly experience God’s best for our lives!

Did you know each of us is created with a desire to win? We’re wired this way because we were created in God’s image. His victory over death and the grave drives us to to want to have victory in our own lives! In Wired to Win: How the Resurrection Changes the Score, Pastor Mike O’Connell challenges us to view Jesus’ resurrection as more than just a day we celebrate, but proof of God’s grace. When we embrace Jesus’ resurrection power, we have victory over our circumstances and experience God’s best for our lives!

Have you ever seen a good “before and after” transformation? Whether it’s a rundown house or a beat-up car, we love seeing things become brand new. Why? Because deep down we were made for transformation—and God is the master of it! In Before & After: The Reality of God’s Power Through His People, Pastor Todd Doxzon reminds us that God’d power doesn’t just raise Jesus from the grave—it raises us too. When we embrace God’s love it radically transforms us so we experience His best for our lives!

We all love hearing good news—but what if there’s news that’s better than anything else you’ve ever heard? The kind that changes everything and restores your hope. In The Best News Ever, Pastor Kap Chatfield reminds us that God’s love, mercy, and resurrection power doesn’t just brighten our day, it changes our lives. We weren’t just forgive—we were raised, restored, and given a new identity so we can experience God’s best for our lives!

Do you struggle to believe you can truly be free from the power of sin in your life? It is tempting to be led by our sinful desires, but living that way that leads to destruction and feelings of shame and condemnation. In Directed, Pastor Kap Chatfield used Galatians 6:16-24 to challenge us to allow the Holy Spirit to direct our lives, rather than our flesh, so we can truly experience God’s best for our lives!
