Calvary Chapel at
the Bridge an international Phuket Church โบสถ์แคล'วะรีแชพ'เพิลที่สะพาน
This
is an international church in Phuket. The
bridge between God and Man is Jesus Christ. Sin has
caused a separation between man and God, the Lord Jesus
Christ bridges that gap and allows us to have a relationship
with God. We are a friendly evangelical church with verse by
verse Bible exposition. We are a fellowship of
believers desiring to grow in our walk and relationship with
Jesus Christ and see other people become believers.
We desire to minister to both Thais and foreign residents
and visitors. Please come be a part of our fellowship.
Our
church meets in the Thachatchai Community Center on Soi
Thachatchai. If you are coming from Phuket the church is near the police station just before you get to the
Sarasin Bridge to Phang Nga. It is about 15
minutes north of the airport, easy to find, just off the
main highway. Go past the Thachatchai check point and turn left on Soi Thachatchai.
Services are Sundays at 10:00 a.m. in English and Thai. We are
currently studying through the book of John.
Sermon and Bible study notes and Power Points are
available for download.
Let us hold
fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who
promised is faithful; and let us consider how to stimulate
one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own
assembling together, as is the habit of some, but
encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day
drawing near.
Hebrews 10:23-25
NASB
Calvary Chapel is a
non-denominational, Evangelical fellowship of churches which
began in 1965 in Southern California. The term
"fellowship of churches" is used in contrast to a
denomination. Calvary Chapel has over one thousand
congregations worldwide.
The original Calvary Chapel is Calvary
Chapel Costa Mesa which is pastored by Chuck Smith.
Doctrinally, Calvary Chapel is evangelical and strongly
committed to winning people to Christ and equipping them to
serve Him.
Calvary
Chapels use a pastor-led church governmental system.
Tongues and prophecy are not a normal part of Sunday
morning church services, but they are held as doctrinally
valid, as are all the gifts of the Spirit. Calvary
Chapels faithfully uphold expository teaching, a "verse by
verse, chapter by chapter, book by book" approach to
teaching the Bible. This essentially means that our sermons
are directly related to a passage of the Bible, and
following sermons will start where the previous sermon left
off (often this is done from Genesis to Revelation). We
hold the opinion that a steady diet of topical studies
only largely fail to present the "whole counsel of God"
(Acts 20:27) and that ministers who use this approach
often choose topics that they have a certain inclination to
teach, while leaving out important controversial issues
of the Bible. It is Calvary Chapel's desire to teach, not
just preach the word, in order to equip and train laymen
for everyday ministry as well as encourage development of
a personal relationship with Christ.
The Calvary Chapels in Thailand as well as
ministry in Myanmar are under led by Pastor Gerry Brown who
also leads U Turn for Christ and pastors Calvary Chapel Romoland (Perris CA).
