He was instrumental in moving the church from it's original location.

• Reverend Curtis Wallace 1981 to 1990
Under his leadership a larger place of worship was built adjacent to the existing edifice.  The old building was renovated unto classrooms, a spacious cafeteria and a small Chapel.  Reverend Wallace resigned as Pastor in 1990.

Do You Want To Be Made Whole? (John 5:1-9) - Rev. Al Sharpton

Greg Laurie on YouTube seeks to present subscribers with biblical truth, hope, encouragement and spiritual answers to life’s tough questions. Through the use of live coverage, engaging videos, and shareable content. 

Greg Laurie is the senior pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship with campuses in California and Hawaii. Today, Harvest is one of the largest churches in America with over 15,000 attendees.
 
Greg Laurie is also the founder of the evangelistic events called Harvest Crusades with over nine million attendees and over half a million professions of faith. In addition Greg’s daily nationally syndicated radio program, A New Beginning which is heard on over 1000 radio stations. 

Greg Laurie is the author of over 70 books including Steve McQueen: The Salvation of an American Icon and Lost Boy. Both of which have been adapted into award-winning films. 

Greg is married to Cathe Laurie and has two sons and five grandchildren.

Pastor Greg Laurie

“But I have a greater witness than John—my teachings and my miracles. The Father gave me these works to accomplish, and they prove that he sent me.” (John 5:36 NLT) 
 
 
Jesus returned to Jerusalem to observe the holy days at the temple. While He was there, He passed the pool of Bethesda, a place of hope and despair. The waters of the pool seem to have had a healing effect. Many people believed that an angel occasionally came down to stir the waters. And the first person who entered the pool after the waters had been stirred would be cured of their ailment. 
 
 
That explains why crowds of sick, blind, disabled, and paralyzed people gathered on the five porches that surrounded the pool. They each hoped for a miraculous healing. One man had been disabled for 38 years. But since he had no one to help him into the water, he had no hope for healing. Or so he thought. 
 
 
With one sentence in verse 8—“Stand up, pick up your mat, and walk!” (NLT)—Jesus changed his life forever. The man was healed instantly. He picked up his mat and walked away. Only to be busted moments later by the Jewish religious leaders. 
 
 
It turns out that the healing had taken place on the Sabbath. And in Jewish culture, there were all kinds of rules about what people could and couldn’t do on the Sabbath. 
 
 
So when the religious leaders saw this man who had been disabled for four decades suddenly walking, the first thing they wanted to know was . . . why he was carrying a mat on the Sabbath. 
 
 
And when the man identified Jesus as the One who had healed him, the Sabbath police went after Him. They didn’t express awe over Jesus’ healing power. They didn’t praise Him for His compassion and concern. Instead, they harassed Him for breaking their Sabbath rules. 
 
 
These hypocritical religious leaders, with their misplaced priorities, were so concerned about Jesus’ growing influence that they started looking for reasons to have Him put to death. Jesus gave them everything they needed and more. 
 
 
He referred to God as “My Father,” which was the same as calling Himself equal with God. He pointed out that everything He said and did had God’s blessing. That meant His words were God’s truth. He claimed the power of judgment over everyone. He made it clear that anyone who didn’t honor Him—including the Sabbath-obsessed religious leaders—didn’t honor God, who sent Him. 
 
 
Jesus told them that the power of eternal life rested with Him. And that He was carrying out the will of His Father. So anyone who opposed Him opposed God’s will. 
 
 
He reminded the religious leaders that they had taken John the Baptist seriously—and John the Baptist’s entire ministry was built on testifying that Jesus was the Son of God. And then He pointed out that the religious leaders revered Moses and his —and Moses had written about Him (Jesus) centuries before. 
 
 
The truth that Jesus’ enemies couldn’t wrap their heads around still gives us assurance and confidence today: Every reliable witness testifies that Jesus is the Son of God, the Messiah, the Savior.

Welcome to Calvary's Online Campus! 
 
In this sermon, we explore the biblical perspective on judgment through John 5:16-30, tackling the question, “Is Don't Judge Me Biblical?” Many Christians struggle with understanding proper judgment versus condemnation, and this message provides clarity by examining Jesus’ encounter at the Pool of Bethesda. 
 
This sermon breaks down how the religious leaders were motivated by pride when confronting Jesus about healing on the Sabbath, while Jesus demonstrates perfect judgment motivated by honor and eternity. We learn that judgment is unavoidable—even deciding not to judge is itself a judgment—but there's a profound difference between judging like the religious leaders (persecuting and condemning) versus judging like Jesus (giving life and restoration). 
 
Key Sections: 
1. Motivated by Pride (John 5:16-18) 
2. Motivated by Honor (John 5:19-23) 
3. Motivated by Eternity (John 5:24-30) 
 
The message concludes with practical applications for both personal relationships and worldview development, contrasting biblical perspectives with cultural values. Learn how forgiveness, truth, and an eternal perspective transform our approach to judgment and help us stand with Jesus in every situation. 
 
Whether you're questioning if Christians should judge at all, struggling with how to respond to sin and error, or seeking to better understand Jesus’ authority, this sermon provides biblical wisdom for navigating these complex questions. Join us as we discover how Jesus—our Perfect Judge—offers us a model for righteous judgment that brings life, not condemnation. 
 
We pray that you are blessed by the message!

In this episode, Ronn Mike Chu discuss the man healed at the Pool of Bethesda (John 5:1-15). They describe how this story ultimately illustrates loyalty to the correct deity, as this pool had traditionally been understood to be dedicated to Asclepius, the Roman god of healing. Thus when Jesus cautioned the man to “sin no more” (5:14) he was warning the man to never appeal to another god for healing from that day forward. The episode concludes with a discussion of the implications of the Sabbath, as well and Jesus’ authority in relation to contemporary faith practices.

Welcome to Calvary's Online Campus! 
 
In “The Power of Real Change,” we explore the profound concept of true transformation through faith. This sermon delves into John 5:1-14, the story of Jesus healing the paralyzed man at the Pool of Bethesda who had been suffering for 38 years. 
 
Key Points: 
1. The difference between desire for change and the power to actually change 
2. Why some people remain stuck in destructive patterns despite wanting freedom 
3. How Jesus seeks out those who have lost hope after years of disappointment 
4. The connection between physical healing and spiritual transformation 
5. Why religious rules often miss the greater purpose of restoration 
6. The importance of lifestyle change following spiritual breakthrough 
 
This message speaks directly to those battling addictions, broken relationships, physical illness, or spiritual stagnation. Through examining the encounter at the Pool of Bethesda (the House of Mercy), we discover that God helps those who cannot help themselves - not those who simply help themselves as conventional wisdom suggests. 
 
Johnny Coate shares personal encounters with individuals resistant to change, highlighting the reality that some people become comfortable in their dysfunction. Yet through Christ's compassionate question—“Do you want to be made well?”—we're challenged to examine our own desires for transformation. 
 
This message is for anyone feeling stuck in a cycle of defeat, offering hope that true change comes not through human effort alone, but through the power of Jesus who sees us, knows our condition, and offers restoration beyond our circumstances. 
 
We pray that you are blessed by the message!

Crossroads Community Church

ABOUT THIS MESSAGE 
Do you ever find yourself putting hope in the wrong thing and then being let down by the outcome? In the passage we’re studying today we see a great multitude of hurting people waiting for, and putting their hope in, something of this world, while the very Savior of the world walks through their midst. Their eyes and their hope were on the wrong thing. We can instead hear the invitation from Jesus to come to the Well of Living Water rather than to the pool of false hope. Then, once we’ve come and received from Jesus, we now have the task of going and telling those around us the work He’s done in and through us. When Jesus does incredible work in your life, will you go and tell them?

My goal has always been to teach it in a clear simple understandable way, and to make it as practical as possible. As the name implies these commentaries are basic, and hopefully they will make Scripture more understandable for you. I pray they are used by God to draw you closer to Christ.

// SUMMARY 
By healing the invalid by the Pool of Bethesda, Jesus provides us with a lasting witness to his absolute power to restore that which is broken. In this sermon, Pastor Timothy Ateek draws four questions out of the text to help the listener discern where they stand on God’s pathway to healing. 
 
// KEY TAKEAWAYS 
Before any healing can occur, one must admit they have a problem. 
Before any healing can occur, one must genuinely desire to get well. 
Before any healing can occur, one must know that spiritual healing comes from Christ alone. 
Jesus is the means of healing, as he holds all spiritual power, and the goal of healing, as spiritual healing allows for unhindered intimacy with him. 
 
// DISCUSSING AND APPLYING THE SERMON 
Prayerfully ask God to reveal issues in your life that need healing by working through the sermon’s four questions. Afterwards, share your answers with your Community Group or a trusted friend. 
What needs to be healed? 
Do you want to be healed? 
How do you think you will be healed? 
What’s the goal of being healed? 
This story demonstrates that healing sometimes comes quickly; however, many Christians find healing and recovery to be a much slower journey. Have you grown discouraged by the lack of healing you see in any area of your life? Ask your Community Group (or, a trusted friend) to pray for you to not lose hope in the waiting. 
As Pastor Ateek warned, we shouldn’t wait to seek God’s healing until it feels more convenient, attainable, or easy. Are there any ways you’re allowing yourself to enjoy sin today because you’ve committed to dealing with it in the future? Confess them to God, and repent. 
God promises to one day heal the entire world of sin’s effects, taking away every painful thing from our lives (Revelation 21:1-6). Pray that God would help you live with hope today in light of his healing promises for tomorrow.
