Calvary Chapel Of Salt Lake

I agree with the other two viewers here that this church is way over rated in allot of areas . Yes they have allot of programs but my opinion is that they don't have a real spirit filled church . ...I have been there a few times and that was enough. if your not giving enough money to be noticed you wont even be missed if you never come back...too many things going on there for them to profit off of ..coffee house ..thrift store ....really ? Its more like a clickish white church ...I was judged before he ever really knew me.I wont miss going back...please do not send me emails that are rude ...its just my opinion.\r Terry do you think you could be quiet long enough to let someone else speak on your program....you cut the poor man off every time ..this is where you can see your proud and puffed up attitude.... more

A welcoming church. Real life ministry. Truthful Bible teaching. Very involved in supporting many local ministries like the Rescue Mission & The Pregnancy Resource Center to name a few. Great place for children & youth. So glad to b e a part of this Christ-centered fellowship. Check out the website at wwwdotcalvaryslcdotorg more

This church is amazing. I have just starting going here recently and they welcomed me with open arms. They accomidate any type of people, hard of hearing, people who can't speak english, new mothers, their ""god's reign forest"" is absolutely beautiful and they make church so fun for teenagers. Pastor Terry is an amazing pastor, so funny and explains the bible so we understand. They aren't a just come to church type of church, they have bible studies and wed. services. This church is amazing. God sent my husband and me to this church for a reason, and now i see why. Pros: way too many to name. Cons: Can't think of one. more

My wife basically dragged into Calvary Chapel kicking and screaming in January 2005, and its the best thing that's ever happened to me. Pros: Come as you are Cons: Not for those that cannot handle honest opinions more

I don't attend Calvary as my main church but both my husband and I LOVE this church for their concerts and seminars. We also listen to Pastor Terry Long on Homeward Bound radio...it's very insightful and funny! Pros: Insightful Biblical teaching more

I am not sure if it can be called as a cult like one review said. I'd consider it as a non-denominational church. However, compared to other non-denominational churches that I have visited both in SLC and in the mid-west, i think this church is not strong in GOD's word. Their emphasis seems to be more on religion rather than faith, spirit led prayer and a clear, comprehensive understanding of the word. they even put down praying in tongues and getting any revelation from God during prayer. It might not be as spiritually dead as Lutheran, Episcopal churches etc., but not far behind, as it is very lousy and boring... there are lots of church programs though...some bible study related, a weekly lunch for newcomers, some related to watching some Christian movie on a weeknight, etc., but I am mainly interested in the teaching and the praise/worship; pastor seems to be a nice guy, but I found him take a dig at baptists, lutherans and some charismatic preachers like joel osteen in some sermons. in one sermon, I found it amusing, because he was accusing different sets of lutherans and baptists for fighting over some hot button issues, but this pastor himself was going on and on with his comments... seemed like double standards to me...my parents were raised lutheran and i myself had gone to several baptist churches... they are not that bad as he portrayed them... one word of caution though:- i read in a review and heard from some sources that they are linked to watchman fellowship from texas. and that scared the heck out of me, because I know that organization to be a very demeaning and notorious organization. get your facts before u decide to go there... Pros: centrally located, bookstore Cons: lousy praise & worship, not strong in the WORD more

I have attended Calvary Chapel on a weekly basis for the past two years. I have found the Church to be filled with Gods grace with a focus on teaching Gods truth (the Bible). Pros: They love God and People, and Teach the Bible more

Dear ""Michaelandtruth"", Please stop quoting scriptures to distort my comments to suit your motives. I never attacked the ""body of Christ"". I only told the truth... 100% truth about a particular church (Calvary Chapel), which keeps criticizing good Christian people. My comments are only reactive (reaction to your pastors' comments and your guest speakers who are even more abrasive and caustic!). You guys are the modern day Pharisees, that's why you find something wrong in everyone. If your Pastor just wises up and preaches more about the Word than on leading Christian authors, pastors and evangelists, probably many people might come back (I'm talking about visitors). I know the members seem to love this Christian bashing because you believe that Calvary movement is the only way, and every other denomination/movement in Christianity is a heresy??!?!?!?!? But remember visitors like me don't like to see other brethren bashed! I am obviously going to stand up for them and warn other people about your church. I am probably as well versed in the Bible as any one of you, but I don't keep ""flaunting"" my scriptural knowledge to prove a point... I don't have to use the scriptures in vain. Terry Long has mentioned in these forums that it is a work of Satan to divide the body of Christ...I could not agree with him more... but Terry himself is the architect of Satan's work... criticizing so many people... okay he is not a Joel Osteen...he is just little Terry from SLC, so what...he should be proud of his work as a Pastor and see how he can be a better pastor, instead of being envious and jealous and criticizing other leading Christians, who bring more people to Christ than you can dream about... Before you start accusing me of anything, take a good hard look at yourselves and your ""criticizing pastor"", and ask him to focus on the Word... Cons: They Distort scriptures and reviewers' comments more

The main focus is Jesus Christ. Him crucified and risen from the grave. You won't find perfect people here (Christ was the only perfect One to walk the earth). What you will find is solid Bible teaching, ministries for all kinds of areas and people who love God. Pros: What you see is what you get more

Calvary Chapel Salt Lake City has been my home church for the past 12 years. I attend Sunday morning services and Wednesday evenign services each week and the women's Bible studies too.

This church was planted in 1992 from a bible study in my living room. we are a typical Calvary Chapel ministry being set out from Calvary Chapel Sacramento and prayed for in the sending by pastor Chuck smith of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa. We are verse by verse teaching through the bible and contemporary praise music. We have a large Spanish ministry and Sunday school for all ages.
