Do all Calvary Chapels do verse by verse Bible teaching?

All those years at CC Costa Mesa, 3-4 services on Sudays and 1-2 every weekday, the school and the store. It’s got to be one of the most profitable businesses in the Orange County. Where has all the money gone. Absolutely zero accountability in the name of God. so sad.
A. I was going to CC in Costa Mesa for years before I fell for their trap of recruiting for dollars and not God.
B. I took a look at the website and after some recommendations and I still see this church being a cash cow in the name of God. This is from one of the schools- keep an eye on discount rate…

Why oh why do people have faith in churches that are built on the doctrine of men who interpret the bible the wrong way.
If the original church is the pillar of fire and truth then you have to rely on that. Further the first church gave you the bible.
Shane: you have been deluded,
The catholics gave the world the bible.
The bible says to value tradition over scripture a multitude of times.
The bible teaches against following the bible solely without the interpretation of church fathers.
Finaly Paul calls himself Timothys spiritual father.
The protestant movement is a house of cards that cannot stand up to any debate

I figure it will be 2012, and if that date passes then probably in 2112. I think Rush has some secret spiritual insight anyway.
HOWEVER, I will make sure my car is filled with gas daily so I can race at 100 Mph to Costa Mesa *at any given time*. I am kinda scared at rupturing up and away by myself without a Calvary Chapel pastor nearby to explain what is going on.
Do you folks think there were guys in a British pub in London around 1799 saying the same stuff we hear today (albeit in real Old English)? Any day now mate!

Could it be the $$$$. After attending Calvary Costa Mesa for so long I decided to go somewhere else because it seems most of the pastors were frankly white male (landowners). Recuiting is such a staple in the OC and not just C.C. but also Saddleback and Harvest in Riverside. Shouldnt it be the word of God and not the money.

HOLZMEISTER
we were wondering if you could give us a list of popular websites where we can listen to Pastor Chuck Smith (calvary chappel costa mesa) audio commentaries , sermons, messages, audio, and the like. Please give us this information, so we can spread the word even to future generations from generations… God bless you… (i hope this phrase will not offend atheists).
