Lessons from a mustard seed: Cultivating Faith - Sermon for October 13th, 2024

La Jolla Presbyterian Church

Lessons from a mustard seed: Cultivating Faith - This Sunday Pastor Chad is preaching, sharing a sermon titled "Just A Little Faith," based on Matthew 17:14-20. This passage recounts the moment when Jesus heals a boy with a demon, a miraculous event that occurs after His disciples were unable to perform the healing themselves. Jesus attributes their failure to their lack of faith, famously noting, "If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." Pastor Chad will explore the profound power of even the smallest measure of faith in our relationship with God and challenge us to examine the size and strength of our own faith, encouraging us to nurture it and watch it grow into something that can move mountains.

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.
