Have you ever experienced disappointment in a relationship? Perhaps you had certain expectations of a friend or your partner. Or maybe you believed a community would be more friendly than you expected. Or maybe a place wasn’t as perfect as you thought. What if you encounter similar feelings when you seek to deepen your faith, and the experience isn't what you anticipated?
You might have come with a sense of ultimate joy, expecting only positive experiences from God—blessings that would bring constant happiness without any trials. However, questions often arise when challenges like suffering, sacrifice, discipline, and loss enter your life of faith. Why do bad things happen to good people?
Join us for the third week of our series filled with strength, Flawed Follower. Let us gather to discuss why trials come in the way of people of God. And why misfortunes befall those who seem undeserving? Let us come together to understand what’s more to Faith and why it’s important to persevere through hardships, as our souls are preserved through these experiences. Let us unite to receive blessings and become a blessing to others, by finding everlasting peace and joy!

Have you ever felt a tension or imbalance between faith and fear? When faced with challenges, part of you may want to believe in miracles, while another part focuses on practicalities. You might wish to rely entirely on God, yet feel uncertain about whether that will truly help.
You might want to go deeper in faith, but somewhere, is there a fear of the changes it may bring, feeling confused or uncertain about what lies ahead? Do you feel eager to know what great things God has in store for you, but also sense that you’re not quite ready? Perhaps you have doubts or feel the need for more answers before you can fully embrace those blessings. If so, you're not alone!
A life of purpose does not require perfection; it requires attention. Indeed, we are flawed. And our God is known for fulfilling remarkable purposes through simple lives.
Join us for the second week of our series filled with power and strength, Flawed Follower. Let us come together once more to delve deeper into Peter's life from the Bible, along with heartwarming testimonies from our church about how God performs miracles and great deeds. Let us gather to experience miracles in our lives and through our lives, no matter where we stand in our faith.

Are you someone who feels drawn to Jesus but has ever felt repelled by the church? Or perhaps you feel distant from getting involved with a church because you don’t think you fit in or you question whether the church is worth it? Or maybe you grew up with the perception that Christianity is all about “Do this and don’t do that,” and you reached a point where you just couldn’t handle the pressure. If so, this series is for you!
We are all inconsistent and clueless at times. We can be aggressive, imperfect, and unreliable, and we often deny what God has to say. In other words, we are all flawed as humans, and you are not alone in this. But our God consistently chose imperfect people to accomplish great things.
Join us as we kick off our series filled with power and strength, Flawed Follower, as we delve deeper into the life of Peter from the Bible who was as flawed in many ways yet continually chosen by God to do great things. Let us together understand why God loves me and you to the core and chooses us, even though we may be flawed now and every day.

As Christians, we often talk about fearing a God who embodies ultimate love and kindness—a comforter and provider—who sacrificed everything to grant us a new life.
But shouldn't our fears be directed towards evil rather than God? Isn’t it natural for us to fear things like heights, creatures, death, missing out, being alone, or failure? So, why should we fear such a loving God? What does this healthy fear truly mean?
Join us for the final week of our 'in Awe' series as we come together to understand how a posture of reverence toward God breaks us free from all of the other fears we live in and how this healthy fear can empower us to be a blessing in the transformation of our loved ones and our community.
There lies power in fearing our God. And it is a blessing not just to you but to everyone around you through you. Let us gather to unite in Him to be blessed and to be a blessing!!

Have you ever wondered why you are created the way you are? Have you ever wondered why you are where you are? Or have you ever regretted your choices of life, place, career, etc?
You were not created by accident. God knows your purpose even before you were placed in your mother's womb. Do you sometimes feel lost and alone? Or do you sometimes feel abandoned, betrayed, and helpless? If you have even a hint of doubt about your worth, this message is for you!
Join us for the third week of our 'In Awe' series, as we have our special guest, a stem cell scientist who is going to show what our DNA says about God. What are you worth? What is your beauty? Let us come together to understand our worth and how blessed we are!

You may have heard that Jesus exemplified a Christian life, serving as the ultimate symbol of love, suffering, and sacrifice. Have you ever wondered if it is truly possible for us to follow His example on this Earth? At some point, many of us have yearned for a lasting peace and freedom—the intimacy and connection with God and to live and love like Him. But is this realistically achievable?
Perhaps you struggle with the fear of what lies ahead. What if we run out of finances? Maybe you're dealing with an addiction that has held you captive for years, and you've lost hope that change is possible. Or perhaps it's simply the everyday challenges of life that make us doubt our ability to transform into the image of God.
If you are someone who at times doubt this possibility of living and loving like Jesus and holding the peace that lasts, this message is for you!
Join us as we welcome our special speaker, Alan George, for the second week of our series filled with wonder and joy, In Awe. How can we practically become more like Jesus? Why should we even strive for this? Together, let’s explore the paths to everlasting joy and peace that can never be replaced.

What do you think of God? Is He the ultimate expression of love and kindness? A comforter and provider? Or perhaps the one who sacrificed everything to give you a new life? If that’s the case, why do we as Christians talk about fearing such a God?
Why should we fear the one who offers us forgiveness for all our wrongdoing? Should we really be afraid that He will condemn us to hell if we don’t repent for our sins each day? Why should we live in fear that He might be angry?
If you have doubts about why the Bible speaks of fearing God, this message is for you! Join us as we kick off our very special series, 'In Awe.' What does the Bible say about holding onto the fear of God? Should we even have that fear? What is its purpose, and what does it mean? Let us come together to understand what it truly means to fear God and how it can be a blessing to us and our loved ones.

God has endowed you and me with unique talents. He bestowed His gracious presence on His children for a purpose. Throughout history, from the creation of the world to the early church in the Book of Acts, we see God's desire to be close to His people.
Are there barriers in your life that prevent you from experiencing God's nearness? How is God communicating to us through the Bible about His presence and our role in it? In what ways does this ancient narrative impact our lives today? What and why should we even understand to spread His gracious love and the presence of His kingdom?
Join us as we conclude our enlightening series, "The Story of Everything," exploring how to read the Bible in ways that enrich our understanding. Today, let's reflect on how to be empowered to live with boldness and purpose, bringing hope and healing to our personal lives, as well as to our friends, families, and our communities.

Did you ever wonder what really a God so divine chose to come onto the Earth for us? What was His mission when He could have governed His laws from Heaven? What did He want to show us in person?

Join us as we continue to explore the guiding principles for navigating the Bible. This week, we will delve into Jesus’ mission on Earth, which may not always be about earthly power and dominance but often leads to humility, mercy, comfort, peace, and a spiritual transformation that lasts.
Be a part of our enlightening series, The Story of Everything. Today, we will address a few important questions about the Bible: In what ways is this ancient book relevant today? Why and how should we refer to its text? How do the Old Testament and the New Testament point to Jesus and his mission for us?
Let’s come together to navigate through the Bible, both personally and as a community, so we can be blessed and become a blessing to our families, friends, and our loved ones.

What does the Bible mean to you? Is it merely a book of laws that governs your life, or is it a source of truth that intimidates you? Does it offer you comfort during troubled times, or is it something that liberates you from your struggles? Or perhaps it holds a different significance for you altogether?
Are you someone who is sometimes confused how to understand the Bible? Are you unsure of how to navigate this ancient text to get the best out of it? Is studying the Bible worthwhile? What does it have to offer you?

Did you ever think about why the world is fair to some and so unfair to others? Did you ever think why God favors one nation and allows suffering to other innocent people? Were you ever in a debate about Him showing preference to one gender over the other? Are you curious to understand more if God really has favorites?
This message is for you! There are common beliefs that God favors some people over others, and there are reasons behind it. But what does the Bible really say? Who does God love or favor the most? Is it the religious or the non-religious? Men or women? Young or old? The poor or the rich? Does God even have a bias? How can we know for sure?
Join us for a very special Sunday as we celebrate Mother's Day and conclude our eye-opening series, Misunderstood. Together, let's debunk the myth about God having favorites, and discover how His blessings, everlasting joy, and peace are available to you and me or anyone who seeks them.

You may often hear the saying that you can achieve anything and everything. However, the reality is that there are certain things we cannot attain, no matter how hard we try. It might be a relationship or a health issue. It might be your career. It may involve significant aspects of life or seemingly minor details that feel entirely beyond your control.
Have you ever felt as though things are slipping away from you despite your best efforts? Have you ever felt unlucky for missing out on something you believe you deserve? Because these feelings are right and they exist. Why are they right and why do they exist?
Join us as we kick off our eye-opening series, Misunderstood. Together, let us debunk certain myths that keep you from freedom – the kind of lies that become obstacles to a life of faith, but that when understood, unleashes our potential. Let us together understand what transformation from within feels like to experience a fulfilling life that lasts.

Isn't it easy to fall into addictions? And isn't it very hard to break free from them? It's easy to get out of shape, but hard to get into shape. It is indeed easy to love those who are lovable, bless those who are kind, pray for friends, and give to those who are generous. But what about the person who hates you, curses you, angers you, hurts you, steals from you, or hits you? That’s a different story!
While easy choices may offer temporary comfort– true freedom and lasting joy often lie on the other side of difficult decisions. But how can we reach that other side? How is it practically possible? And why should we even attempt to do so?
Join us today for the last week of our series filled with abundance and peace, Overflow. Together, let’s grow in Him and be known for radical love rather than judgmental attitudes, for radical acts of kindness instead of greedy politics, and let us be known for our care for outsiders rather than solely protecting our personal safety and rights. Join us as we discuss practical ways to embody God's likeness and embrace a lasting true freedom.

We know everything is expensive these days. We know we never have enough time. And many of us have reasons to complain about not having enough. Since the beginning of time, humanity has grappled with a fundamental misconception: the belief that what God has given us is insufficient.
However, God's desire for us is to experience a life of abundance. But is it truly possible to live abundantly? What about our bank accounts, our possessions, and our deepest desires? How can we embrace abundance amid the stress and anxiety that often weigh us down? What does God have in store for us to lead a fulfilling and peaceful life?
Join us today as we kick off our new series filled with abundance and peace, Overflow. Together, let’s explore the pathway to a fulfilling life. Let us together be blessed and be a blessing to our family, friends, our community and loved ones.

Have you ever felt like an outsider in a community? Perhaps you've experienced being the new kid at school, starting a new job, or relocating to a different city or even a new country. In those situations, did you feel welcomed in an entirely unfamiliar place? Or have you ever played a role in making someone else feel welcome?
Indeed, the power of friendship that truly brings life requires attention.
As children of God, we are designed to cultivate friendships that could bring us joy, happiness, and a sense of belonging.
We understand that friendship is important, but how can we break down social barriers to create community like Jesus did? What practical steps can we take to be a light in our communities and grow as individuals? How might our neighborhoods and workplaces transform if we truly embraced the call to inclusive friendship?
Join us as we continue our series filled with love and joy, Friends. Together, let's reflect on principles that can reshape our lives and communities. Let us together learn to transform our world and be a blessing to our friends, family, and our loved ones.

Are you someone who is looking for authentic friendships but finds it difficult to establish them? We often recognize the need for trusted friends, but we struggle with how to cultivate meaningful relationships.
God designed humans to thrive in connection with one another, yet today's generation is reported to be the loneliest in history. The statistics are alarming. Why has it become so challenging to embrace the joy of companionship? Why are we losing the ability to build friendships?
As God's children, He desires for us to be a source of true friendships. How can we make time for these powerful connections, and how might they transform our spiritual and emotional well-being?
Join us as we kick off our important series, "Friends." Together, let us explore the steps we can take to build meaningful relationships that have a lasting impact on our minds and souls. Let’s learn to become a community that fosters love, trust, and togetherness.

Some loved ones say they are with us in thought, others say they are with us in prayer, and some claim to be with us in spirit. However, there will be loved ones who are always there to sit next to us and be there for us following us anywhere we are.
And yes, our God longs to be near us, even in the midst of our struggles, pain, and sin. Just as we desire closeness with our loved ones, God relentlessly pursues us, bridging the gap that sin has created through the birth, life, and sacrifice of Jesus. How can we know that God is right beside us, patiently waiting for us to talk to Him? Are you ready to respond to God's love and make room for His divine presence in your life?
Join us today for our special Christmas service, "The With-Us God." Together, let us embrace God's presence and experience the true joy of Christmas!

Are you facing trials and seeking to understand their purpose in your life?
In our fast-paced, comfort-seeking culture, it’s natural to shy away from pain and hardship. Have you ever struggled to find joy during difficult times? Or questioned why God allows us to walk through trials?
What if we began to see these challenges not as obstacles, but as opportunities? Each trial we face carries a divine purpose. Rather than simply seeking relief, we are invited to let God shape our character, refine our faith, and lead us toward wholeness and completion.
Today, we kick off our powerful new series, Pressure Points. Together, we’ll uncover how God uses trials not only to bless us but also to equip us to bless others. Through this journey, we’ll discover the everlasting joy, peace, and strength that emerge when we endure and trust in His purpose.

None of us begin our life with the intention of how to waste it. No one enters marriage planning for it to fail, and nobody chooses to struggle with feelings of emptiness or become enslaved by addictions.
In our intentions to achieve and flourish, we can end up doing things that leave us unfulfilled and stranded. This can lead us to asking ourselves, "How can we live a complete life?" If our daily habits shape our future and the lives of those who come after us. Are you living with hope for the future, or are you caught up in the present at the expense of tomorrow?
Join us today for the last week of our hopeful and thought-provoking series, Hope[Fully]. Together, let's understand how our decisions today contribute to a legacy of faith, hope, and love that not only impacts our future but extends beyond our time. Let's come together as a community to make every day count and spread hope to our families, friends, and our region.

ABOUT OUR CURRENT SERIES: “Living Lightly”
In a world burdened by pressures and heaviness, we sometimes find ourselves seeking solutions that leave us even more hopeless than when we began. This series is a challenge to embrace Jesus’s way, which shows us that real rest, freedom, and a life of influence are often found in embracing the right tensions instead of letting go of them.

We all look forward to living peacefully and lightly. But life isn’t always perfect. We don’t always feel strong or hopeful. Maybe you are experiencing pain in the form of loss, illness, depression, grief, suffering, or something along those lines.
But God wants to remind you that His grace is sufficient for you! Even if you are alone or depressed, even if you are battling pain or illness, even if you do not have enough money.
How is God’s grace sufficient? How is His comfort and power abundant for you?
Join us today as we continue our Living Lightly series. Together, let us understand how to live lightly even amidst trials and pain. Let us together understand how God’s presence never leaves us…even when you feel lost.

Living lightly is sometimes about an internal peace that surpasses understanding. But sometimes, our sense of heaviness comes from our loved ones.

Join us today as we continue our Living Lightly series. Together, let us learn from Jesus how to embrace these tensions as Christians and find a balance between burdens and boundaries.

Have you ever felt torn between what you want and what you think God wants for you? Maybe you’re confident about what you think God says about sexuality and gender, or perhaps you’re grappling with reshaping your beliefs because of someone you care about.
Some people are solid on their beliefs but struggle to show love, while others are all about love but seem to switch beliefs often. But there’s a third way to navigate this.
Join us today as we conclude one of our most reflective series Wonderfully Made. Together, let’s learn from the Bible and Jesus how we personify God to the world and bring healing to a broken culture by embracing grace and truth at the same time.
One way we experience division within ourselves might be when our biological sex and our gender don’t seem to align. For some, this can be a deeply painful experience called gender dysphoria; for others, it may be just a nagging sense inside of you that something is off.
Today, we have a special guest, Son Byrd, who will share his personal journey navigating gender dysphoria. We will tackle gender stereotypes, the definition of gender, and restoration.
Join us as we continue our journey through our Wonderfully Made series. Let’s unpack together how God wants us to show his intentions for the diversity and harmony of the creation He designed.

What do you long for most in life? Some desire better friends, romance, and love, while others desire power, success, or money. Maybe you crave sexual fulfillment or physical pleasure.
Have you ever wondered where those desires come from? Is it wrong to have them?
ABOUT OUR CURRENT SERIES: “Wonderfully Made”
Cultural changes around topics of gender and sexuality have left many confused, often unsatisfied with who they are, and uncertain about how to respond with clarity and compassion to a conversation that has become increasingly polarizing.
Join us as we journey in unity with other Bay Area churches in a teaching series called Wonderfully Made. Together, we’ll explore how God’s incredible design for our bodies reveals the beauty and value of every person.
Who or what has shaped your view of sex? Whether we like it or not, we’ve all been shaped by influences that have distorted our view of sexuality in some way.
What is God saying to you in light of this bigger picture of sexuality? Sexuality is an integral part of our bodies and our lives that creates intimacy with Him.
Join us today as we delve deep into God’s word how sex is a gateway to a divine mystery. Together, let’s unpack the ways of understanding God’s creation in a way that was designed for us to flourish.

Over the last few years, we have seen significant cultural shifts around the topics of gender, sexuality, and the body. These changes have left many of us feeling insecure or confused about how to respond with the unconditional love of Jesus, but also with faithfulness to God's Word.
Our desire for this series is to build bridges, not walls. We want every person in the Bay Area to know their incredible worth, understand the beauty of their design, and step into their identity as a human being that was wonderfully made by a loving Creator.
Join us as we unite in our teaching series Wonderfully Made. As each of us is uniquely made, let’s together indulge in this series to bring clarity and beauty into a conversation that has often been creating distances instead of love among us.

We all know our time here is limited, but have you ever wondered if death marks the end of everything? Or perhaps there's something beyond? And if there is, does it overshadow every other concern we have?
Regardless of our beliefs or current state of mind, the curiosity about life after death is universal. Sometimes we forget that there's a historical figure who supposedly conquered death, suggesting that we might be able to do the same. But where's the evidence?
This Easter Sunday, join us for a special message from Pastor Filipe. Together, let's delve into the possibility of overcoming death, which might otherwise seem inevitable.

Do you feel like you have everything and nothing at the same time? Or do you feel like what you have is never enough? We often find ourselves working hard but producing little, gaining much but feeling empty, or consuming more yet being less satisfied.
God set the people free, so that they could bring hope and freedom to others, but they got comfortable and forgot the reason they came back to the land. The calling to rebuild the Temple was a calling to extend God’s presence and blessing to the nations. We are blessed to bless, but often we take the blessings and run.
Join us today, as we conclude our series BLESSABLE. Let’s together understand how our motives and ambitions can be turned into real lasting blessings and how we could in turn be a blessing to our family, friends, and our community.

Our circumstances do not limit God’s blessings. Even during tough times, we have His favor. However, we often forget this when faced with hardships. We may think it’s okay to compromise on our values under the pressures we face today.
Are your choices leading you to the life you want? God’s desire is for us always to make choices that will bring blessings into our lives. He values our character more than our possessions or actions. God delights in blessing people who are pure in heart and who are a blessing to others.

What comes to your mind when you hear God saying you are made for greater things than just running a healthy or wealthy life on Earth? Do you feel like God is using you for His work, or do you feel blessed that He has chosen you to do so? Whatever you feel, above and above all, God cares more than you about what you are already holding in your personal life.
Doing the work doesn’t mean we are doing something for Him. Then what does it mean? How can we understand why and what God’s intentions are for our lives? And how is it going to be when we keep our lives in His hands?
Join us as we continue our series Blessable. Together, let's explore why God's intentions for us are always the best and how we can better understand His ever-blessable intentions for our lives.

Have you ever forgotten something that you promised to your child, family, or friend? Or have you ever taken on more than you could handle for a group project as a student? Breaking promises happens to many of us at some point.
Yes, words are powerful. As God’s children, why is it important to keep the promises? What would happen if we became unbreakable with our promises and words? How would being a promise-keeper impact our marriages, friendships, and relationship with God?
Join us as we conclude our series “Not easily broken”. Together, let's explore what the Bible teaches us about why and how we can become people who are not easily broken by being committed to our words.

What first comes to mind when you see a person in need on the street? Do you have compassion for them or do you look the other way? Jesus loved the marginalized, gave attention to the neglected, and showed love to all humans. We are called to continue this mission to see all people with equal value and worth.
What can we learn from the Bible about ourselves and those around us? What did Jesus teach about radical love for the least, the lost, and the lonely? How does loving the underprivileged and the lost impact us, our families, our community, and the world?
Join us today as we continue our series "Not Easily Broken". Together, let’s learn how, as a church, we are not easily broken by lifting up the broken.

Most people today are quick to give up on relationships, back out of agreements, and run from discomfort, but what if the very commitments we avoid are the keys to a life of increased impact and stronger relationships?
With all our imperfections, God created us to accomplish beautiful things TOGETHER. But how do we understand the right relations? How do we recognize the enemy whose only goal is to break us apart and break us as individuals? How do we get enough power to trample evil and why do we have to make a difference for good for our family, friends, and community?
Join us today as we kick off a powerful series “Not Easily Broken”. Together, let’s learn what Jesus says about the Church being not a building but people working together to witness miracles and see transformations that endure.

We know what it feels like to fall short of expectations or have work be frustrating. And we have also seen the joy in bringing order out of chaos at our workplace or in our daily life. Where are we getting these feelings from?
That is because we were created to work and to manage and to create. But is it always practical to say “Work is Worship?” What does God say about Work and Worship? How can we produce fruit with any work we take up? How do we understand when and how the enemy is trying to misguide us otherwise? How do we manage our work so that the output has all the goodness?
Join us today as we wrap up our series filled with grit, “Present.” Together, let us understand what it really means to produce right and good fruit through our work where God placed us.

Isn’t it alarming that loneliness is rising even though there seem to be people all around?
Today, building and cultivating connections takes intentionality. God created us to flourish in partnership with one another. The enemy tries to isolate us from others, knowing we are weaker when we are alone and divided. Jesus modeled the power of community by inviting others to do life, work, and pray with him, even though he could have done this all alone.
How do we recognize the enemy? How can we beat the feelings of loneliness and isolation? How do we build life-giving friendships?
Join us today as we continue our series filled with the power to flourish “PRESENT.” Together, let us understand how we can grow with the strength of community.

In this busy world, how often do you stop and think about what matters? We often go through the motions and lose sight of what should be our primary concern. But, how do we know what we should give our focus to?
In the ‘Parable of the Net,’ Jesus communicates a difficult topic by using fishing imagery to communicate an important truth. We are forced to evaluate our priorities as this parable challenges our perspectives. Although it’s an uncomfortable truth, judgment is a reality. Therefore, Jesus is calling us to make the Kingdom of God our primary concern – and invite others in our sphere of influence also to know Him!
Join us today as we wrap our ‘Story Time’ series. Let’s dig deep into what Jesus wants to tell you through this parable.

Have you ever wanted something so bad that you were willing to take great lengths to get it? We often get so busy with life that we forget to assess whether or not the things we are pouring energy and time into are still worth it.
Jesus shared stories to help us open our eyes to things we’ve become blind to and show us areas where we need to upgrade our perspective. Choosing to surrender to Jesus changes the way we show up in our family, friendships, relationships, and work.
Join us today as we continue our ‘Story Time’ series. No matter where you are in your faith journey, Jesus wants to fill our lives with meaning, joy, peace, and happiness.

Did you ever experience facing bigger and unexpected challenges when trying to catch up with something important? Be it with a project deadline, an assignment submission at school, or just running your chores hastily to catch up with an appointment on time. We all have moments in life where things didn’t go as planned and we end up messing up more.
More often than not, our gut instinct is to feel like we have failed. And indeed, the scenarios in our life can shape how we see the world.
What can we learn from the Bible on dealing with things when we feel lost or feel like we failed?
Join us today as we dig deeper into the parable of the weeds. As we continue our storyful “Story Time” series, let us together talk about another story Jesus narrated and learn things that can make our lives happier!

Have you ever been in a situation where you experienced something totally different than another person, though you were in the same place as them? How can two people be in similar environments, see similar things, yet be impacted very differently by those situations?
Do you believe it’s our attitudes, beliefs, and posture toward situations in our lives that have a lot to do with what we get out of them?
Some think God looks for charitable deeds from you. Some think He expects your praise. But what God really wants from you is an open mind to listen to Him when He speaks, the posture of your mind when He whispers. Is it possible to heed Him with a proper mindset and without other distractions? If so, how?
Join us today as we kick off our very new series “Story Time”. Let’s dig deeper into the parable of the soils that Jesus told us and how the parable can be applied in our real life in being attentive the right way at the right time.

In your relationships with your partner, children, family, or friends - did you ever feel like you failed them somehow and felt the need to make it up to them?
Humans tend to balance out our wrongs with rights. Does doing what is right erase what we did wrong? Do we need to do good things to eliminate the bad we have done? Does doing what is right determine God’s love for us, or is it something else?

Words are powerful and have a high impact on building our lives. But how do you know which words are worth basing your life upon? What if you pick the wrong ones?
Christianity and a few other religions consider following the word of God to base their lives upon. Christians see the Bible as God’s love story and value it as their most reliable resource. But there are people who may have doubts about this Book, and question if it is really trustworthy.

Jesus was said to be one of the most influential people to ever live. Some call him a moral teacher, some call him a prophet, and some call him a great man. The Bible calls him the Messiah and the Son of God.

Did you ever experience something popping up on your phone moments after you talk about it? We are living in a time when getting answers to our questions is easier than ever before.
But there’s one question that isn’t so easy to answer, and it’s one that everyone asks: “What is my purpose in life?” As humans, we often try to find our purpose in our accomplishments, wealth, or pleasure — things that we learn over time are ultimately meaningless.
In this message, Pastor Filipe unpacks the idea that God gives us purpose as we center our lives on Him.

Are you someone who wishes life was comfortable and stable? As humans, we long for things to go well. But how often do things go according to our plans? Yes, change happens to all of us. We can’t avoid it or escape it. And when it comes, affects everything.
We might sometimes experience change, but we serve a God who is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. And experiencing the change with Him is the safest way to navigate through it.

It’s safe to say that we’re all searching for peace in a world filled with uncertainty.
Perhaps you worry about your kids’ future, becoming ill, or your finances. Maybe you’re afraid of losing your job, not getting into that university you have your heart set on, or a loved one dying. Or perhaps, you have profound regret and shame over mistakes you’ve made in your life. Whatever your burden, Jesus came to take it all and give you freedom.
Join us today as special speaker Ray Hudson reveals how the Bible uses seemingly contradictory imagery to depict Jesus as the Prince of Peace, who turns our worry into confidence, our fear into faith, and shame into assurance!
ABOUT “IMAGES OF GOD”
What comes to mind when we picture God? Some see Him as a kind old man with a big white beard sitting on a fluffy cloud. Others see Him as an angry, barrel-chested warrior ready to strike them down. Our ideas, perceptions, and notions of who God is are shaped by our culture and experiences, but do they reflect who He really is?
The Bible gives countless images and illustrations that paint a picture of God’s character. Let us dig deep together into His Word to get a more accurate picture of who God really is in our new series, Images of God.

How can we begin to understand a God who is beyond human comprehension? The Bible gives countless images and metaphors that depict God’s nature and character — that He is supreme, just, powerful, relatable, and approachable. One such image is God as our Father.
In today’s message, special guest speaker John Ortberg will examine Bible passages revealing a Heavenly Father who created and loves us unconditionally.

Whether you are in a season of joy, pain, celebration, or grief, God calls you to make a difference. Watch this message to learn how.
ABOUT “LABELS”
How do we define who we truly are? We all long for a strong sense of identity — to find our purpose in something. Yet so often we let the opinions of others stick to us and their own labels shape who we become. That’s not our real identity. In the end, the only real label that really matters is the one given to us by our Creator.

God can redeem and restore your broken dreams, despite your past experiences and current circumstances.
No matter where you stand in your faith journey, Jesus can turn disappointments into victories and hopelessness into triumph!

How can I have a secured future? What is the best way to save for my child’s education? What can I do to have a peaceful life? Are these some of the many questions that haunt you?
We often keep running with our busy lives. But it is important to sometimes pause, stay still and give a thought about prioritizing what is important. But how to stay still and learn to choose the important things?
Today, as we conclude our very powerful series, Get Outta My Head, we are together going to unpack how to cut the unwanted noises, and give ourselves time to understand our priorities better. Let us together learn how to invite joy, peace, love, and strength through Jesus and how to restrict useless noises to live a peaceful life.

Thanks for joining us! Let us know your thoughts on the message in the comments below.
Do you ever wonder why you can’t shake a bad habit? Why you unexplainably experience overwhelming anger, shame, or despair? Or why you struggle at times to connect with God?
It can often cause us to wonder, "Where is all this pain coming from?"
Sometimes, the pain is directly related to spiritual warfare. Make no mistake: You have a spiritual enemy, and his sole focus is to steal, kill, and destroy the life that God intends for you.
But how do you know when you’re under enemy attack, and how do you fight a spiritual battle?
In this powerful message, we’ll learn how to become aware of spiritual battles, familiar with Satan’s strategies, and use the right weapons to defeat him.
This is the third message in our Get Outta My Head series — a journey to discover ways to break the pattern of toxic thinking and live with greater confidence, freedom, and peace of mind.

Choosing The Right Battles | Get Outta My Head (Pt. 2) | Hosanna Wong
LIVE ONLINE SERVICES each Sunday at 8:30 am | 10:00 am | 11:30 am PT
Life is full of battles, but which ones should we choose to fight? Which ones are worth our time and energy, and which ones aren’t? And how do we fight the right battles — especially when the enemy wants to distract us from fighting the battles God has called us to?
In this message, international speaker, best-selling author, and spoken word artist Hosanna Wong unpacks how to choose and fight the right battles. It begins with knowing that God defines you and approves of you, not people. He created you, knows your worth, and can guide you to fight the right battles.
Join us as we continue our series, Get Outta My Head, as we learn to fight the internal and external noises in our heads. Let’s unpack what the Bible says about fighting worthy battles together.

In our new series, GRiT, we’re looking at the lives of men and women of the Bible who demonstrated tremendous endurance and faith in the midst of impossible circumstances, unclear futures, insecurities, and the odds that were stacked against them.
Their stories show us how a perfect God works through imperfect people — often to do the seemingly impossible. And as a result of their faith, they left remarkable legacies that — thousands of years later — still teach us today how to persevere or endure even when doing hard things.
This week, we look at the story of Noah, who was: righteous before God and blameless among people because “he walked in close fellowship with God.” And that propelled him to accomplish the seemingly impossible.
And so can we.

Christmas time is full of wonder. Our holiday soundtracks jump from flying reindeer and elves, to baby in a manger and savior of the world.

If you could learn any language, which would you want to learn?
Spanish? Mandarin? Hindi? French?
Out of all languages, by far the most important — and consequential — one that you could learn is the language of the Holy Spirit.
Join us today as we wrap up our series, The God I Never Knew, unpacking one of the most common questions related to the Holy Spirit: What does it mean to “pray and speak in the Spirit?” Why does it matter? And how do we activate it?

With so much pain and brokenness around us, it’s easy to feel discouraged, powerless, and even defeated.
And yet, deep inside, we all have a desire to fight the darkness with light. To resist cynicism with hope. To oppose evil with good. To conquer hate with love.
But we can’t sustain it alone. We were made to be sustained by another source: the Holy Spirit.
Join us today as we continue with our series, The God I Never Knew, and learn how to be FILLED with God’s strength and EMPOWERED by His Spirit — to fulfill the great MISSION that He’s called you to.

When you think of someone with superpowers, who do you imagine?
Maybe you picture characters like Superman, Wolverine, or Black Panther…
But what if we told you that there are actual, spiritual “superpowers” in real life - and that God has given them, through His Spirit, to EVERY person… including YOU?

There is a HUGE difference between knowing ABOUT someone (like you would a public figure)… versus actually KNOWING them (like you would a close friend).
When it comes to God, He longs for friendship with us. And it’s in and through an intimate relationship with Him that we experience life, freedom, healing, and power that we can’t find anywhere else.
So how do we “get to know” the Holy Spirit? Join us today as we continue with our series, The God I Never Knew, and see how real friendship with the Holy Spirit changes your life!

Every day, billions of people walk around, not even realizing that they have DIRECT access to God - and the power He gives us.
This is the same God who created the ENTIRE universe, who exists OUTSIDE of time and space, who makes the IMPOSSIBLE possible, who can make things happen in ways we could NEVER accomplish on our own.
So who really IS the Holy Spirit? Why does it matter so much? And how DO we “receive” Him?
Join us today as we kick off our brand new series, The God I Never Knew, and learn to receive and live by God’s promise of the Holy Spirit.

It’s easy for us to just focus on the here and now. More often than not, the spotlight shines on the public figures, celebrities, and influencers who are impacting our world today.
But we can’t let our attention on the present make us forget the crucial importance of investing in the future: especially those in the next generation.
Join us today for a very special Echo Students-led service! Together, we’ll unpack why this really matters - and what it looks like for each of us to help raise up the next leaders, culture-shapers, and world-changers to come.

We’re told and taught that greater numbers means greater impact. That scale is what matters most. That the more people we can influence, the better… right?
But what if it’s not actually about how many people we can impact, but rather how much we can impact a few - or even just one?
Join us today as we continue with week 2 of our Here For Good series. Together, we’ll learn what it means to live out God’s calling for each of us to love, serve, and fight for “the one.”

Often, when we want to change something in our lives, we prefer to approach it alone. It's no wonder self-improvement is one of the most popular book categories.
After all, relationships are messy, and community can be hard. So it feels easier to just say, “I’m good… I’ll just do this on my own.”
But in reality, God designed you not to just live your life with others, but to experience transformation through them.
What does this look like? Join us today as we wrap up our TRANSFORMED teaching series and dive into this together.

Do you ever feel like you’re living in constant worry or anxiety? Maybe it’s become so normal that you don’t even seem to realize it anymore.
And the more you try to work towards things that will give you peace… the more you end up exhausted. Empty. Maybe on the verge of burnout.
The reality is: it is harder than ever to find peace in this modern-day, fast-paced world we live in. But it is also possible - and much closer than you think.
Join us this Sunday as we continue our TRANSFORMED series and dive into the kind of peace that doesn't just soothe temporarily - but transforms us from the inside out.

More and more, our world is becoming isolated.
There seems to be an app for every need and web article for every question, combined with an increasing preference to only spend time with those who look and think like us.
But what if we were made to live much differently?

Any of these sound familiar?
"It's so expensive here."
"Housing is way cheaper in Texas."
"I'm just here for work, until I find something better."
Today, join us for week two of Neighboring on Purpose with a message from special guest speaker Shauna Pilgreen, church planter of Epic Church in San Francisco and author of “Love Where You Live: How to Live Sent in the Place You Call Home.”
Together, we’ll rethink the place we live — not based on our own personal convenience, but rather on God’s purposeful calling.
