Lord, you know you listen on the place of word. Radio is the best. We'll see you next week. Your name, your name, your name.
Speaker 3:
Hello and welcome to Plays on Word Radio, where we discuss, analyze, work and play on the Word of God. Thank you for joining us on this excursion. Today let's join Pastor Teddy, also known as Fred David Kenny Jr, the founder of Plays on Word Theater, as he does a deep dive into the Word of God. Amen, yeah.
Speaker 2:
All right, well, welcome to Place on Word Radio. We are going to continue with our dear brothers Pastor Dave and Pastor Mark from Calvary Chapel, cape May, new Jersey. Check it out.
Speaker 4:
And he said I want you and Beatrice to come down and take over the ministry. I couldn't believe my ears. So the next time I saw my pastor, I raised my hand and said take over the ministry. Wow, I couldn't believe my ears, yeah. So the next time I saw my pastor, I raised my hand and said Hail to the prophet. That's funny. So in February of 2010, after going through Pastor Frank, after going through Joe Foch, after going through Lloyd Pulley, I came down here as pastor of Calvary Chapel of Cape.
Speaker 2:
May. Wow, that's fantastic. How happy was your wife that you got saved. Oh, she was ecstatic. I got saved. She was ecstatic, I got saved, To see prayers answered and then see the change oh yeah, it was incredible she reminds him I got you saved.
Speaker 4:
She reminds me, hey, if it wasn't for me, although I have to admit I I love her dearly, I love her dearly. I have to admit, though, that at the time as I think most women of pastors or people, men who are really involved in in church, get a little bit jealous of the church, yeah I had to make adjustments because I was so gung-ho that Katie was starting to resent the church Because it takes so much of our time, right, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4:
And in fact, one time I was joking with her I said well, honey, you have to be careful of what you pray for. Yeah, it didn't go over as good as I thought it might, oh no, oh, no, no, no, oh no.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, yeah, not to say.
Speaker 4:
Yeah, but anyhow, I have to tell you a quick story. When I was asked to come to Cape May and I went to Pastor Frank and I talked and I went to Beatrice, my wife, and I said I'm going to go down to Cape May, we're going to go down and be the pastor, I'm going to be the pastor. We had lived in Ocean City for 20-some odd years. We moved to Vineyard and we lived there for seven years. Beatrice thought we were coming back to a shore town and her first reaction was I'm not going. And I said well, that's going to be a difficult choice, because if you don't go, I'm not going.
Speaker 4:
I said pray about it. That's all I said, and I left it alone, never talked to her about it again. Three, maybe four weeks later we were sitting down and she goes. The Lord's told me that I'll go to Cape May with you and I said well, isn't that nice. So she came down with me gladly.
Speaker 4:
Way better than to let the Lord speak oh yeah, I wasn't going to force her, I was extremely blessed. I've been blessed. I've been blessed here. Good times, bad times, tough times. Ministry is hard. It's very trying, it's very difficult on you, it's on your wife, but I have been blessed beyond belief. I wouldn't change it for the world. I've been blessed.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, and the congregation down here is just fantastic. They love you and they love each other.
Speaker 4:
Yeah, that's the key. And nothing does me more warm in my heart when I hear people say to me who visit for the first time, what a loving church is here, and that's the key. You know what I mean Loving people. Yeah, because that's the key. You know I mean loving people. Yeah, because that's our charge. Yeah, you're right. You're right, love people, love god, love people, that's our charge, you know our brother mark casey.
Speaker 2:
He calls it a love fest yeah he says you're gonna you go to calvary chapel cape may. It's a love fest down there. We just love each other. That's fantastic. And how about you, sir, mr Worship Leader? How did you meet Jesus?
Speaker 1:
Of course, in the strangest places. Twelve-step fellowship of Narcotics Anonymous. All right, the Lord had been moving me all along, drawing me, I just was, you know, a Catholic, okay, and that was supposedly good enough. And I met a gentleman who knew Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior personally and I. He said to me well, I know Jesus Christ personally. I said, well, I'm a Catholic. No, I'm not talking about religion or denomination. And he was my sponsor in the 12-step fellowship.
Speaker 1:
That was no accident, no accident, no accident. And sure enough, in 1988, the Lord had given me five years clean, all along drawing me, until finally, in 1988, I heard him and that was it. The Lord blessed me since then, amen your eternity changed.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, eternity changed. Yeah, in the early days I used NA as my church, not in a manufactured way, I was just on fire for the and that was a vehicle I can express the Lord to. Free books, opening meetings, seeing Jesus as much as I could, having Bible studies at my house and in those times being against saying Jesus in the 12-step fellowships was becoming less and less popular because of the secularism of the program. But the Lord kept pushing me. And then the Lord hooked me up with a pastor. During those days in Philly the Lord transitioned me from Catholic and I wasn't angry at Catholics. I tried the charismatics and I tried that. But he transitioned me because of my wife too, going to Calvary Chapel in Philadelphia. And slowly but surely he moved me out, not because I was angry at Catholics, none of that Just drew me. Then he drew me down here. My wife had gone to the first place in Rio Grande and then I came what I called to the church, the little house on the prairie.
Speaker 1:
Little church on the prairie and what I did notice it was a love church. I was welcomed, I was greeted, I was made to feel good. That is so important.
Speaker 2:
It was so important. I used to oversee the greeters and ushers at Calvary Living Water and I told them. I said, listen, if God spends any kind of energy engineering people's lives and getting them to the front door and you're having a real bad day and you're not really loving, you've got to think about the Lord's, this person walking through these doors here. The least we can do is enthusiastically greet them. No one should ever come in and stand around and be like oh, my God, I wish somebody would say hello to me.
Speaker 4:
Because it's so important, it's major importance, it's crucial and I told the team.
Speaker 2:
I said listen, yes, the worship, the praise, music is important, the pastor's sermon is important, but your job is on the same level. You need to approach it that way. We are serving the Lord, god, and you are the face, the arms, sometimes a body to the Lord that somebody can relate to. You know what I mean. I didn't mean to go on that tirade.
Speaker 1:
But being greeted is important. Yeah, absolutely. And then the Lord just ordered the steps of my path. The pastor slowly but surely began the Lord was drawing me in and the pastor was his instrument to help me find my path with the Lord in ministry. And we talked about addictions, because I used to pray for it, I said. He asked me what do I want to do about it? I said, can we start a meeting? And that began our Freedom Through Christ ministry. Tell me about that. Well, that was more out of the fact that I came out of NA and the Lord drew me out and I had a heart for addicts because the Lord drew me out and I had a heart for addicts because the Lord cleaned me up and I wanted to give back and pastor was hoping for that to be so. He put it on me. Okay, I give you the opportunity to start a meeting here. We laid it out in front of him. He agreed with freedom through Christ and little by little, by little by little, the Lord has blessed us.
Speaker 2:
You were uniquely qualified to, to relate to somebody yeah, it wasn't academic. Let me read, let me check this, let me see what the manual says about how to respond to you. You can say I was there, bro. Yeah, amen.
Speaker 4:
I know what it's like. Jesus was in the trenches.
Speaker 1:
He was in the trenches, and and then the other opportunity the Lord gave me through pastor. I said to them this was a good one, though before even the Freedom Through Christ ministry. I loved the praise team and I loved our pastor Frank. He was a friend of ours, a good brother to our pastor, and I was becoming very close with him too, and he was our worship leader. And you know I said to him well, if you ever need a drummer and we had wanted, a drummer for years.
Speaker 3:
We had wanted a drummer for years.
Speaker 4:
We just wanted a drummer.
Speaker 1:
So, because I still like to fish certain Sundays, a year and a half I waited, but that was the right timing. On the Lord, it was wonderful. And then the Lord blessed me to become part of the praise team. And then, you know, with our passing of our brother Frank, the next man in line didn't want the position and I said you're the next man in line didn't want the position. And I said you're the next man in line, You've been with Pastor Frank for all these years. I can't. He didn't want to take the responsibility and no one else was willing. So I said okay, Lord, I don't play guitar that good. So if you want to help me out, the Lord open the Lord.
Speaker 2:
Amen. That's how you know it's of the Lord.
Speaker 3:
Absolutely. You know what.
Speaker 2:
He takes things that you know, you at least expect, and he turns them into what he needs. Yeah, yeah, amen, and that's even with that. Yeah, roy, my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
Speaker 4:
Amen.
Speaker 2:
That's what you preached on. Today, my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
Speaker 1:
That's what you preached on today.
Speaker 3:
That's what he preached on today.
Speaker 2:
Man, he preached on it today. Yes, sir. So you know, before we close up, what is God doing here at Calvary, Cape May? What's going on here? What is the Lord up to?
Speaker 4:
Because when you went down the announcements I was like, wow, this is a busy place, man. We have a lot going on. We have Freedom Through Christ ministry on Monday nights and that's a very valuable ministry and it has grown exponentially, unfortunately. That's a good thing and bad thing, but Mark and his wife and our church administrator, carl, they do an excellent job. With that, I have taken a further back seat because I am so confident in what they do. You know, I don't feel like I have to be here all the time, you know, because they have done such a great job. What a blessing that is. Yeah, and we have talked. He doesn't keep anything from me when it comes to the ministry and I keep telling him how much of a messy ministry it is and a difficult ministry, and we have experienced some heartbreak and in just this last week, just a couple days ago, we lost someone who was a part of the freedom to Christ ministry and who we dearly loved, and we lost him and through the years we have lost others. And it's very difficult, very difficult when you minister them.
Speaker 4:
Mark teaches a great bible study on monday night. It's all based around the word of god. He teaches that bible study. You know. Then on wednesday we have our church bible study. We go are through the bible. We're currently in the book of psalms. Okay, psalm 23 is coming up, psalm 23 I can't wait on. On thursday morning, the men meet up for a breakfast out together. That started a long time ago with just a couple of us, and it's really grown.
Speaker 2:
This is over at the diner at the airport. Yeah, over at the diner at the airport With the airplanes that are hanging. Yeah, airplanes are hanging around. It's fun. We love it too.
Speaker 4:
And we eat breakfast there. We come over here and during COVID, when everything was shutting down, mark and I started devotions. On Thursdays and Fridays we were using a little what was it called Mevo.
Speaker 1:
Mevo or what was it A little tiny thing about it was a Mevo.
Speaker 4:
it was all like that Well, we started these devos and they took off. We've never given them up. So on Thursday morning, kenny, he does a devo and on Friday mornings, mark mainly does a devo. But we, we like to team up and I like to be there with him, so it's a double. You know, we do a Devo Now. We have a woman's study. On Thursday also, we like to minister, to shut-ins, okay, and we go to three different rehab, rehabilitation, long-term facilities.
Speaker 2:
That's the Lord's heart, right there we go to three of them.
Speaker 4:
One on the second Sunday of the month, one on the fourth Sunday of the month and one every Thursday. We go to these various places where these people are shut in and they are rehab, but they're also long-term facilities and we go there and minister to them.
Speaker 1:
Some are profound, some are profound.
Speaker 4:
Yeah, we also go over. Part of the addiction ministry goes over to Cape Regional Recovery Center, which is over here, and they do a Bible study there every Wednesday.
Speaker 2:
Wow, yeah, People that don't get you know it's important.
Speaker 4:
It's very important.
Speaker 2:
We also do Keswick too, America's Keswick.
Speaker 3:
That's cool. We do that for the colony guys up there.
Speaker 2:
That's one of Roy's favorite places to go when we do Christmas. Joe up there, it's next level. Yeah, that's cool. Fall on your knees, fall on your knees.
Speaker 1:
The windows are shaking.
Speaker 2:
Yeah.
Speaker 1:
That's beautiful, that's beautiful, those guys.
Speaker 2:
They desperately want the Lord, need the.
Speaker 1:
Lord there's something about the praise and worship? Yeah.
Speaker 2:
So we always do Keswick a couple times, maybe a few times a year, because we don't want to forget about them. So that's something that's been on our heart. That's cool. The shut-in aspect, shut-in aspect. We've done these plays in people's living rooms. Man, I love it. Oh nice, we've done them on the side of the road, we'll go anywhere. So if the Lord puts it on your heart when you're going over there, we can engineer it and we'll come out.
Speaker 4:
They might like that.
Speaker 1:
They might like that we got something special for you today. We'll come out and do it. Their activities director.
Speaker 4:
She wants something better. They love us when we go over there and then on Friday nights, on Fridays, and also what we have done is we're reaching out and we're. We opened up a bible study outreach fellowship in upper township. Okay, and the guy who ran the computer?
Speaker 3:
no, it's.
Speaker 4:
It's even further seville up there, up in new mar, up in that area, okay, and kenny does that. Kenny Bruzak, he teaches that because he lives up there, okay, okay, so he teaches that. Friday we have our men's study and then we have a Devo and we're finishing up the 13th week of Grief Share. Yes, we do a Grief Share program here too. Very important ministry too. Yeah, it was a turnout, nice turnout. So we have a outreach fellowship at this Cape Regional Recovery twice a year where we do one and we're getting ready to do one in the spring and we do one in the fall, winter, okay, where we go over there with all kinds of clothes and food and all you name it. It's there.
Speaker 2:
Look at what God's doing. Yeah, look at what God's doing.
Speaker 1:
Right. I like to think what a pastor would say your own, judea, samaria and Jerusalem, right, yeah right, we're stretched out to upper town, amen.
Speaker 4:
We're a little further. This is our Jerusalem, you know what I mean. So we're a little further, but it works good. And we do other things. We're going to see Daniel on a bus trip, we do this, we do that, we have a miniature golf tournament. We try to do different things to keep the people involved, and we just love being around each other. Amen.
Speaker 2:
That's evident.
Speaker 4:
We love being around each other and we have been blessed. I mean, it's a blessing for me to be a pastor. This is my 15th year and I am just ecstatic about being here. You know what I mean. Yeah, and as I grow older, you know I, I I see an end coming down the road, but it's like I'm really not ready to face that end, or you know me stopping. But I just love it. I just love being here. I love teaching the Word of God. On Sunday, We've gone from one service at 10 am Now we're at two services at 8.30. And then we come back every Sunday night for prayer. Yeah, and we have a prayer meeting. Very active, yeah, we're very active and we'll do anything. We have a teen ministry that they meet once a month and we have a guy who loves to cook and every week or every month on a Saturday morning, we'll have breakfast for men and women.
Speaker 1:
You've got to come out for that. You've got to come out for that.
Speaker 2:
I've heard about these.
Speaker 1:
Mark tried to drive me to one.
Speaker 2:
I had a previous commitment and he was like Pastor, you've got to come down, you've got to come down, you love it, you love it. And I was like oh man.
Speaker 4:
And we've also started something new Once a month we call it Dinner and a Bible Study. Hey, on our Wednesday night we open. We start at 7 o'clock, but we open at 5.30 and we serve dinner Amen.
Speaker 2:
And Roy was doing that at Fellowship Chapel. Yeah, that's cool. That is such a blessing.
Speaker 1:
Every Wednesday night, that's the service. Sunday after church they do the same meal.
Speaker 3:
Yeah, and nobody goes home.
Speaker 4:
I know, I know, yeah. So we feed them on Monday night at the Freedom Through Christ. They get fed very, very well. So, yeah, we're busy, but we're always looking for other things to do, which is crazy. I really feel the Lord is pushing me and I hate to use the word pushing, but the Lord is impressing upon my heart that we really need to do a Calvary distinctive class. That's important. People need to know who we are and I think it's important. So I'm looking for a time when I can do that Tuesday, our day off, supposedly and if I tell my wife that I'm going to set something up on Tuesday, I might have to duck, did you?
Speaker 2:
hear? Did you hear Mike Fulch's? He did a podcast with the 2.0 and it was fantastic.
Speaker 4:
I heard that yeah.
Speaker 2:
It's a it's a really cool like an update, but it's so important so people, people can understand, people will get an understanding.
Speaker 4:
I'd like to find it, I'd like to get it. I'll shoot it to you, I'll shoot it to you, I'd like to hear it.
Speaker 1:
Can we just think of it. Yeah, can we just think of it. They call it the.
Speaker 4:
Think of 2.0.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, and it's basically what it is. They're just discussing the chapter. Each chapter they take an episode and discuss a week.
Speaker 4:
You still could Kind of like Grief Share, which was 13 weeks.
Speaker 2:
So there's two last questions for you. What can the people listening right now, what can they pray for you for? Either personally or corporately here for the church, or if there's any prayer you need personally, you want to share For the church, or if there's any prayer you need personally, you want to share, or just what prayers can we launch up? I have whole groups of artillery gunners that fire artillery Prayers firing that artillery. They will pray.
Speaker 4:
For the church. My biggest prayer is that we would be unified. We've had some splinters, We've had a little bit of chaos, but we're drawing them back in and I want unity in the church. I would love to see a unified church in the name of Jesus Christ. Obviously, that's most important to me and it begins with my leadership. I want my leadership to be unified and be able to have that oneness in Christ, and that would be a prayer For me personally. There's strength to continue, Strength to continue pressing over it. I want to be here, I want to do it, but I have a lot more years behind me than I do in front of me. Age is creeping up, but I need the strength to continue on. God has sustained me and he's always considered sustaining me, so I've been surrounded by incredible men who love the Lord and they always chime in. We have a meeting almost once a week. The leadership meets and we discuss things, and there's not anything that we won't put on the table. So we've been blessed, and I've been blessed to have Mark.
Speaker 4:
I don't even consider Mark an assistant anymore. If you want to take a look, for lack of a better term, he was hired as an assistant, but now I just call him pastor Mark. You know I would be considered senior pastor, you know what I mean. But Mark is the pastor too. So you know, and I think it works better that way. You know what I mean. I think it runs well. He has. He has been a very good help and he has taken a lot of the load off of me. Hiring an administrator has really helped me out. We hired an administrator who does all the buying and getting together and he's really organized, you know. So that has been a blessing to me too, so that has helped me.
Speaker 1:
Amen. How about you, Mark? What would you do? I would pray for more co-laborers to come across the field yeah right, yeah, our computers for our ministry, children's ministry, to have some more people want to step up.
Speaker 4:
Yeah maybe some young people yeah yeah, some younger people. You know you have a wave of youth right the way that you know, they come out of the womb with a phone in their hand yeah, you know what.
Speaker 2:
Know what I mean. They have an IT degree. Yeah right, just knowing how.
Speaker 1:
Okay, that would be one of them, and I pray for my wife that she would have peace and be anxious for less or be anxious for nothing. Amen, with what the Lord says about it. Amen, and that's it.
Speaker 2:
We can bank on the fact that many people listening right now I know right now they're praying, praise God, so they will pray.
Speaker 4:
Thank you, we covet your prayers.
Speaker 2:
Yes, the last question I would ask I wanted to ask earlier was Cape Mays like a resort town almost? Are there changes that happen here in the summer versus the winter?
Speaker 4:
or because I I grew up in manasquan okay, where manasquan shuts down, basically there's a few locals, but it swells in the yeah, summertime, oh yeah we used to uh, we used to be very sparse in the winter, but we have grown exponentially and we have not, you know, we've been very blessed. However, we're coming into our season and we will even grow more and it's a beautiful thing to watch all these people come back who we've known for all these years. And they come back every single year because they love us and it's really great to be with them and have them with us, you know, and they come back every single year because they love us and it's really great to be with them and have them with us. You know, and and they come and they even do, they do vacation, bible school with us, they do all you know. They just really get involved. That we love them.
Speaker 4:
You know, I mean uh and um, but you figure, a place like wildwood, which is right across here in Cape May, they'll go from their current population of 15,000, 16,000, 20,000 to 300,000. I mean they grow. I mean it gets big, it gets big, it really does.
Speaker 2:
So there's a lot to draw on. Yeah, I was blessed this morning. I came here this morning and I was like, wow, this place has got a lot of people in here and it's springtime.
Speaker 4:
It's not even summer, no, exactly, it hasn't even started yet. That's what I've been saying. And you know what, In all due respect, by God's blessings, we haven't missed a beat. Amen, we haven't missed a beat. You know, we have been. I can't tell you the blessing is incredible. And I always say when I left Vineland, when I left Vineland, my pastor says to me he says, David, be a spectator, Just watch what God can do. I'll tell you what man I've had a front row seat, Amen, and the greatest I've just. I've loved every minute of it. I have a front row seat. I go what? No way, what he has done. I mean, Mark can attest to that when we see his hand upon what he's done here.
Speaker 2:
It's almost like we're continuing in the book of Acts. That's what's happening. We're continuing the chapters that you know we're keeping going.
Speaker 4:
It's interesting because when I taught the book of Acts, it took me to the end when I finished chapter 28,.
Speaker 2:
They came back the next week and I told them that we were going to do Acts 29.
Speaker 4:
Amen. Amen.
Speaker 2:
And they went, looked at me and said it's night now. Right now is Acts 29. That's how I started the book. I said we are. We are the spirit's still the spirit.
Speaker 4:
The spirit is still moving. Everything you can see in the book of Acts can happen today, and that's important for us to teach. Amen.
Speaker 2:
All right. Well, hey, man, we are here with two men of God and you guys continue to pray for them and the church here at Calvary Chapel, cape May. And if you are in the New Jersey area, you need to come down here and visit man. Come down here and visit man. Just say, hey, siri, show me how to get to Calvary Chapel, cape May.
Speaker 4:
Exit zero, exit zero. On the Garden State Parkway Exit zero, take the parkway.
Speaker 2:
Take the parkway, take directions to Calvary Chapel. There we go. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about Exit zero. Just go until you can't no more, that's right and then ask somebody. They'll point you in the right direction. Yeah, they will. We thank you for letting us come and be fools for Christ here. Thank you, our pleasure.

Lord Jesus, I pray for Roy as he continues in his walk with you, father God, that you would show him great things through your word and, lord, as he continues the fellowship, father God, you would build him up in his faith. Lord, and people would see him in all that he does. Father, and I pray for Mark and myself, lord, that you would continue to show us great things here at Calvary Chapel, cape May. That we would see you in every corner, lord, that we would always know that you are the head of this church. It is your church. You established it. You run it by your Holy Spirit, lord, and we always look to you for that guidance, father. So thank you for this wonderful time we've had. Now, lord, we ask your blessing in Jesus' name, amen. Amen.
Speaker 1:
