Calvary Assembly

Pastor George Sawyer shares a message of hope and encouragement using a theme from the Christmas movie Elf. In the movie, Buddy the elf leaves the North Pole to search for his father. The absence of fatherhood affects your identity. God designed the family. Moms give nurturing and encouragement; dads bring affirmation and identity. Identity releases your purpose. Buddy was too big for his counterfeit environment living among elves. If you get tired of bumping your head on a ceiling that's too small for you, you'll start looking beyond where you are. Until you have a revelation of who God is, you see your earthly father's failures in yourself. But God provides the identity for His children. Scripture reference: John 1:12, Matthew 3:16-17, 1 John 3:2, Genesis 35:16-18
