The Rhythm of Scripture

The Rhythm of Scripture: My life is shaped by the full story of the Bible.

What if the Bible isn’t just a book of rules or stories, but the story that makes sense of your life? In this opening message of our Rhythms series from Acts 1–2, we explore how the rhythm of Scripture anchors us in the redemptive drama of God, from creation to new creation, and calls us to take our place in his unfolding mission.

We trace the story from Acts to Luke to Isaiah to Leviticus, and discover that Jesus doesn't just teach truth – he is the truth. Jubilee has come in him. Scripture isn’t a static reference manual; it’s the Spirit-breathed script of the Kingdom – and we are summoned to live it out.

If you’ve ever felt disoriented in today’s culture or unclear about your place in God’s purposes, this message will ground you in the gospel and invite you to live a life shaped by Jesus, empowered by the Spirit, and engaged in mission.

About this Series:

This summer at Calvary, we’re taking a fresh look at the spiritual rhythms that formed the first Christians. These weren’t religious routines or programs; they were patterns of grace that naturally flowed from knowing Jesus – habits like prayer, community, generosity, worship, and mission.

Whether you’re in the midst of family life or learning to walk through a quieter season, these rhythms can help deepen your walk with Jesus. They’re not about doing more, but about living more fully…rooted in God’s story of redemption, and in step with Jesus in your everyday life.
