We seek to rightly divide the word of truth between Law and Gospel, so that the people in the city of New York and beyond might know and confess where they end and God begins. We proclaim the historic faith of Christ and Him crucified. "When I came to you, brothers and sisters, I did not come proclaiming the mystery of God to you in lofty words or wisdom. For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and him crucified." - 1 Corinthians, 2
Calvary/St. George’s is a community of people in the Episcopal Diocese of New York, which is a constituent member of the world-wide Anglican Communion. Our worship, which is steeped in The Book of Common Prayer, is intended first and foremost to glorify God in Jesus Christ, and we stand in that theological tradition which owes a debt of gratitude to the great reformers of the English Reformation. With them, we ascribe to the following:
-
Picture of Grace (John 15:1-8)
In this sermon, Rev. Jim Munroe describes a story of radical grace and forgiveness.
-
Good Shepherd Sunday (John 10:11-18)
In this sermon, Rev. Jacob Smith reflects on how Jesus is our Good Shepherd.
-
When Seeing is Not Enough (Luke 24:36b-48)
The disciples struggled with doubt and so do we. By the Holy Spirit, God works in our hearts through the teaching of his Word, the offer of his peace, and the eucharistic meal, to grow our belief in his resurrection.
-
The Power of the Word (John 20:19-31)
Jesus comes to the disciples in order to give them a Word. This Word turns fear into peace and doubt into faith. Christ continues to deliver this same Word to us through proclamation and the sacraments.
-
Walking Backwards Into a Redeemed Future (Easter Sunday)
Listen to the Rev. Jacob Smith's sermon on Easter Sunday 2024.
-
The King of the Cross (Mark 14:1-15:47)
As humans, we think we can make Jesus a king, but his kingship is actually found in his sacrifice on the cross.
Customer Reviews
The Love of God and His Grace in NYC
Whatever you think nowadays, whether secular, religious, or agnostic, Calvary St. George’s stands apart as a bastion of the ancient Christian faith. In this faith there is a message of peace for everyone, an acknowledging of truth and pain, and a welcoming of those who do not have it all figured out. God is Love, and the Word of God’s Grace and Love continues to be preached at this wonderful and historic church to all who have ears to hear it. It has always brought and continues to bring me hope, and comfort, in times of unrest and challenging life situations. Their theology is on point, and their music is world-class. Run, don’t walk, to Calvary St. G whether in person or online! Bless, Trevor G.
Proclamation of Christ for God's glory
I'm thankful for these sermons that are concise, rich, gospel-centered, and God-glorifying. It has ministered to me as I minister to others.
Truly Comfortable Words
Since Law and Gospel are properly distinguished here, the broken and weary are regularly reminded that the comforting words of the Gospel are also for those that already believe. In Christ the believer also has total forgiveness and acceptance because of what He has done.
The Gospel and Christianity is not a system setting forth what we must do for God. Rather it is the blessed revelation of what Jesus has done for us. It is finished. We are eternally His.
Thank you, Pastor Smith for your faithful preaching.
