This Sunday

This Sunday at Bulverde Chapel

You do not have to have everything figured out before you come. We gather as a small church family to worship Jesus, open Scripture, pray, and share life together.

Sunday School & Fellowship

2:00 PM

Learning and sharing life together before worship.

Worship Service

3:00 PM

Singing, prayer, Scripture, and the table.

Location

Bulverde, Texas

A simple gathering in the Texas Hill Country.

Get Directions

What should I wear?

Come as you are. You do not need to dress up to be welcomed here.

Kids

Kids are welcome. We are a church family, and we want children to know they belong too.

First Time?

If you’re new, you’re not alone.

Visiting a church can feel uncertain. You may wonder where to go, what to wear, whether your kids will be okay, or if anyone will notice you. We want Bulverde Chapel to feel simple, sincere, and welcoming from the moment you arrive.

Known and Loved

From the moment you arrive, you will be greeted with genuine warmth. No pressure, just friendship.

Simple and Sacred

We sing together — simple songs focused on praising God, not performing for an audience.

Scripture and Conversation

Our gatherings are participatory. We discuss Scripture together, ask questions, and learn as a family.

Around the Table

Much of Jesus’ ministry happened around a table. We share meals, stories, and life together. You have a seat here.

Sacred & Belonging

Sacred. Together. Centered on Jesus.

We believe church should feel like something sacred is happening here—and like there is a place for you in it. Bulverde Chapel is shaped by Scripture, prayer, worship, fellowship, and the simple life of the church we see in Acts.

“And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.”
— Acts

Stop Propping Up Defeated Idols
Jul 20, 2026 Pastor Nick 1 John 5:21

Stop Propping Up Defeated Idols

What are you continuing to hold onto that God has already brought down? In this sermon, we trace one spiritual pattern through three biblical stories: Israel treating the Ark of the Covenant like a weapon, the Philistines propping up the defeated idol Dagon, and Saul placing his own judgment above God’s Word. These stories confront us with a personal question: Who gets the final word in your life—God, your idols, or yourself? Discover how religious appearances, partial obedience, personal ambition, and self-rule can become forms of idolatry—and why the kingdom of God alone will stand forever. Key passages: 1 Samuel 4–5, 1 Samuel 15, 1 Chronicles 10:13–14, Daniel 2 #Sermon #Idolatry #Dagon #KingSaul #ArkOfTheCovenant #BibleTeaching #ChristianSermon
