Jesus Culture San Diego Message of the Week

In this powerful message from Galatians 1–3, Young Adults Pastor Reigha Tencer reminds us that the Gospel is built on grace, not performance. Discover the freedom that comes from surrendering striving, embracing your identity as a child of God, and trusting fully in the finished work of Jesus.

Pastor Jordan DiMarco continued our journey through 2 Corinthians, reminding us that the true Gospel can never be separated from the cross. Through Paul’s example, we were challenged to reject the world’s pursuit of influence and self-promotion, embracing instead a life marked by humility, sacrifice, and dependence on God’s strength. As we examine our own hearts, we’re invited to trust that God’s grace is sufficient and His power is made perfect in our weakness.

Pastor Andrew Heligenthal unpacked 2 Corinthians 8–10, revealing how a cross-shaped life is marked by generosity, gratitude, and self-giving love. Through Paul’s example of the Macedonian church, we were challenged to see giving not as an obligation, but as an invitation to reflect the heart of Jesus in every area of our lives. As we surrender our time, talents, and resources, we become active participants in God’s Kingdom and His work in the world.

In this week’s message, Our YA Pastor Reigha Tencer walks through 2 Corinthians 5–7, reminding us to live with an eternal perspective rather than chasing the approval of the world. She unpacks what it means to be ambassadors of Christ, compelled by His love, transformed into new creations, and entrusted with the ministry of reconciliation. Through Paul’s example, we’re challenged to widen our hearts, embrace godly repentance, and reflect Jesus in both our words and our lives.

On Father’s Day, Pastor Jordan DiMarco shared a message on the ministry of the Holy Spirit through the imagery of wine, oil, and salt. He taught how the Holy Spirit cleanses, heals, and preserves God’s work in our lives, inviting us to continually make room for His presence. Pastor Jordan also challenged us to partner with the Holy Spirit by leading with presence, worship, and prayer.
