Current Sermon Series

Here at La Jolla Pres., 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 that are informative, applicable, inviting and transformative.

The Letters of John
Winter 2026 Sermon Series | January 4 – February 15

What does it look like to live a faithful, confident Christian life in a confusing world?

This winter, we’ll journey through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd John, a set of short but powerful letters written to help early Christians—and us—stay rooted in truth, love, and hope. John writes with a pastor’s heart, addressing real struggles: sin and forgiveness, obedience and grace, truth and deception, love and hospitality.

Across these seven weeks, we’ll explore what it means to walk in the light, trust Jesus as our advocate, live as God’s beloved children, love as God first loved us, and hold fast to the promise of eternal life. As the series unfolds, John reminds us that authentic faith is not just something we believe—it’s something we live out in community, compassion, and truth.

Whether you’re new to faith or have been walking with Christ for many years, The Letters of John invite us to a deeper, steadier confidence in who God is and who we are because of Him.
