Guest Pastor Isaac Morin from Anaheim joins us at Echo Church to deliver a powerful message from John 3:22-36 on what it means to "decrease so Christ may increase."

As Echo Church celebrates its 5-year anniversary, we reflect on the journey of faith, community, and courage that has brought us here. In this sermon, we dive into the story of Maverick, a friend who took the hit so another could walk free, and draw powerful parallels to Jesus' ultimate act of sacrificial love. From His first miracle at Cana to the cross, Jesus shows us what it truly means to stand in the gap, to serve selflessly, and to bear the cost for others. This message challenges us not only to live boldly in faith but to honor the love, courage, and commitment that have shaped our church community over the past five years.

This week at Echo Church, we dive into The Gospel According to John — where Jesus calls His very first disciples with just three simple words: "Come and see."

In this message, we unpack what it means to truly follow Jesus, not just know about Him. From Peter needing to witness a miracle before dropping his nets, to Nathanael's sarcastic "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?", we see how Jesus meets each of us exactly where we are — curious, skeptical, or running on too little sleep.

We talk about how spiritual warfare can look a lot like busyness, why transformation happens through proximity, and how being "covered in the dust of your Rabbi" sometimes means being covered in donut powder too.

No matter where you are in your faith journey, Jesus is inviting you to come and see that there are greater things ahead.

The series will unpack Jesus as Son of God, Man of God, and Lamb of God. Today, the focus was on His divinity—Jesus is God Himself, present at creation, now inviting us to believe and become children of God.
