Straight From The Heart
Mon-Fri 8:00am, 10:00pm, 3:30am
Calvary Chapel of Philadelphia began in 1981 when Pastor Joe Focht started a small Bible study in a catering hall. With a strong emphasis on teaching God’s Word verse by verse, the church has grown to minister to approximately 12,000 people weekly with a variety of outreaches and ministries.
Pastor Joe currently teaches three Sunday morning services along with evening services on Sunday and Wednesday. His daily Bible teaching ministry, “Straight from the Heart”, is heard in Philadelphia on HOPE FM daily.
In more than 20 years of ministry on the East Coast, Joe and his wife Cathy have seen their family grow to include four children, and three grandchildren while their spiritual family continues to grow.
