Jesus Culture San Diego Message of the Week

Deborah Giles shared a powerful message on fighting hopelessness and trusting that the seeds we’ve sown in faith are still growing, even when we can’t yet see the harvest. Through Galatians 6:9, she reminded us not to grow weary in doing good, encouraging us to hold onto hope in seasons of waiting, disappointment, and silence.

Pastor Zack taught from 1 Corinthians 7–10, highlighting that our freedom in Christ should be guided by love, not self-interest.

Ultimately, everything we do should be filtered through love and aimed at glorifying God.

Pastor Jordan DiMarco led us through 1 Corinthians 3–6, reminding us to move beyond spiritual immaturity and build our lives on the foundation of Jesus. Paul’s correction is an invitation to live with unity, humility, and dependence on the Holy Spirit. We’re called to value what has eternal significance, not just what looks good in the moment. As God’s temple, our lives matter, how we live, love, and walk in holiness reflects His power at work in us.

He teaches that in view of God’s mercy, believers are invited to offer their lives as living sacrifices, an act rooted not in fear or obligation, but in love and gratitude for His grace. The gospel doesn’t just shape what we believe; it transforms how we live, love others, and navigate everyday relationships. From honoring authority to walking in unity and hope, this message calls the church to live out the reality of the gospel in every area of life.

This message walks through Romans 9–12, revealing God’s heart for unity and His plan to bring all people into His family through faith in Jesus.
