We want to see lives transformed through a relationship with Jesus. One way we witness that is by sharing God’s Story and equipping you to share His story as well.
We strive for sermons and teaching that is informative, applicable, inviting, and transformative.

That’s Not The Way I Planned It - Sermon 17th August, 2025
This Sunday, Pastor Paul will preach a sermon titled “That’s Not The Way I Planned It,” based on Genesis 12:1-9, kicking off our new series CALLED. Throughout the Old Testament, we see God reaching out, inviting people to step boldly into faith. Jesus continued this call, inviting even those far from God to follow Him. God’s call always points us toward a new way of living, one that’s deeper and more meaningful than anything we could plan on our own! As we respond to God’s invitation, our stories become woven into His large plan. Join us as we explore what it means to be CALLED and how God’s direction can lead us beyond our expectations.
Sermon Questions:
1. Has God been calling you to do something outside of your comfort zone? How have you been responding?
2. Is there something in your life you are trusting or holding onto that you need to “let go of?”
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.
