Know God’s story to live out your story.

CalvaryU is a two-year journey into God’s Word and His Spirit—built for anyone who’s hungry to grow deeper and live out their faith in real life. You’ll see the big picture, meet Jesus in every part of the story, and discover how your life can have lasting impact.

Why? Because knowing the Bible is a vital first step toward truly knowing God—and ultimately knowing yourself.
