Calvary Chapel vs. Calvary Chapel Global Network
By WebMaster · 8/16/2026
Many people ask about the relationship between Calvary Chapel Association (CCA) and Calvary Chapel Global Network (CC Global). While both share the same founding distinctives — verse-by-verse teaching, worship-based preaching, and church autonomy — they differ in structure and focus. CCA is the original, larger network with more historical depth and global mission presence. CC Global formed later to focus on church planting and international missions. Both networks share the same core values but operate with separate leadership and regional administration. This article explains the distinction and how it affects local church finding and network resources.
