La Jolla Presbyterian Church Sermons

The Gift Of Hope - Sermon for December 10th, 2023

La Jolla Presbyterian Church

This week marks the second Sunday of Advent, and Pastor Paul is looking at Isaiah 11:1-10. In these verses, Isaiah prophesies the coming of a Messiah, a righteous ruler from the line of David, symbolized as a shoot growing from the stump of Jesse. This prophecy paints a picture of a world transformed by justice, peace, and harmony – where the wolf lives with the lamb, and a little child leads them. Pastor Paul will delve into how this vision of a peaceable kingdom offers us enduring hope in a world often marked by discord and strife.

We want to connect with you! Email Pastor Chad at chadf@ljpres.org to get plugged in or you can find our website at ljpres.org/connect. We hope to see lives transformed by a relationship with Jesus, and we strive to be a place where you experience and are able to express that transforming love of Christ.

It builds our faith to help give back a portion of what God has given us. If you would like to help further His work in La Jolla, San Diego and the world you can give online at LJPres.org/Donate.
