Grace Church San DiegoSermon | Josh Martin | "Made to Multiply" | October 5, 2025This Sunday we’re pressing pause on Ephesians to launch into something I believe could shape the future of our church, The Vision Series: Made To Multiply.The truth is, without vision, we drift. But when God gives us a vision: a picture in our head and a fire in our heart, we are motivated and focused and come alive. Vision lifts our eyes from what is to what could be, and it pulls us into the grand story God is writing.I believe God’s vision for Grace is bigger than any one of us. It’s about m...

I’ve been praying for you and look forward to gathering this weekend as we continue our journey through Ephesians.In chapter 4:17–32 Paul makes a clear shift—he’s been telling us who we are in Christ, and now he turns to how we live because of it. He calls us to “no longer live as the Gentiles do” but to put off the old self and put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.This passage gets very practical: truth instead of lies, forgiveness instead of b...

But have you ever wondered why some people who look strong on the outside crumble when life gets hard, while others, who seem unimpressive by the world’s standards, carry an unshakable peace?This Sunday at Grace, we’ll look at Ephesians 3:14–21, where Paul prays for believers to be “strengthened with power through the Spirit in your inner being.” Outward strength fades, but inward strength, rooted in Christ’s love, endures and sustains us through every trial.Join us as we explore what it means to be streng...
2025-09-0335 minGrace Church San DiegoJosh Martin | Sermon | "Mystery Made Known" | August 24, 2025This weekend we continue our journey through Ephesians as we look at chapter 3:1–13. Paul pauses his letter to reflect on one of the greatest surprises in all of history—the mystery of Christ. What was once hidden is now revealed: that through Jesus, Jews and Gentiles are brought together as one family, one people, one body.Even more, Paul says that God is showing off His wisdom—not just to the world, but even to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms—through the church. That means us. Grace Church is part of God’s eternal plan to display Hi...
2025-08-2634 minGrace Church San DiegoSermon | Josh Martin | "Gospel Reconciliation" | August 17, 2024Hello Grace Church hope you are well! Last week in Ephesians 2 Paul showed us—in strong terminology—how Christ has brought us from death to life, from lies to truth, and from darkness to light. In short, Christ has healed our hostility with God vertically. We were dead, but God. So good. You could think of last week as Gospel Presentation and this week as Gospel Implication. Paul goes directly from telling them what God has done vertically to what that means for us now horizontally. We’ve been reconciled with God and because of this, we are now reconc...
2025-08-1934 minGrace Church San DiegoSermon | Josh Martin | "Made Alive in Christ" | August 10, 2025Hello Grace Church, we hope you are well! Last week in Ephesians 1 we saw Paul pray that we would know God more deeply — that our hearts would be opened to His wisdom, His hope, and His power.This Sunday we move into Ephesians 2:1–10, and Paul takes us back to remember what life was like before Jesus. He doesn’t soften the language — we were spiritually dead, following the ways of the world, and under God’s just wrath. But then come two of the best words in the Bible: “But God…”Because of His great love and rich mercy, He made us alive...

We hope you enjoyed the Counter Formation Series and are working to integrate the disciplines of fasting, generosity and sharing the Gospel. I’m learning it’s often the things we avoid that offer us the most joy. This week we’re starting the book of Ephesians and this study will lead us to the end of the year. This letter was written by Paul from a Roman prison to the church in Ephesus. It’s designed to tell us who we are in Christ and how that shapes how we live with one another. It’s a book a...

This Sunday we wrapped up our Counter Formation series, where we’ve been looking at the spiritual practices that we often avoid but have the power to transform us from the inside out.Week one we looked at fasting, last week we discussed sharing the Gospel, and this week we’re going to talk about the importance of practicing generosity.We live in a world that is forming us to be all about ME.To look out for ME.To build life around ME.But Jesus invite...

This Sunday we continued our Counter-Formation series, where we’re looking at the ways Jesus wants to shape us counter to the patterns of the world.Last week we talked about fasting. This week we’re talking about something many of us struggle with but deeply long to grow in: sharing the Gospel.Let’s be honest, the world is forming us to keep our faith quiet. We’re told not to bring Jesus into conversations, not to offend, not to make it awkward. But Jesus has called u...

Over the past few months, we’ve walked through the book of Daniel together, watching how God formed and sustained His people in the middle of Babylon. We’ve seen that we, too, are living in a kind of exile, and like Daniel, we’re called to remain faithful in a world that’s always trying to shape us.This Sunday, we’re starting a new series called Counter Formation, where we’ll look at three of the hardest (and most neglected) practices in the Christian life. These are not just spiritual disciplines, they are ways of pushing back...

Praise the Lord it feels like June Gloom is over and we’re getting some sunshine to usher in the summer. Our weather is amazing, so I shouldn’t be discouraged, but all those overcast days had me bummed out. We’ve been following the story of Daniel as it covers 68 years in exile.

2025-06-2333 minGrace Church San DiegoSermon | Josh Martin | "Empires, Antichrists and the Throne Room" | June 15, 2025Hello Grace Church, Happy Fathers Day last Sunday! For the last 7 weeks we’ve been following the story of Daniel and his friends refusing to assimilate to Babylon. We’ve seen them interpret dreams, face the fiery furnace, sleep in the lions den, and defy 4 different kings. But in chapter 7, the language changes. The text goes from Aramaic to Hebrew and the literature changes from narrative to Apocalyptic. Apocalyptic sounds like what it is. It’s writing that reveals hidden spiritual realities and future events. This week's text is filled with a vision of, “lions and tigers and bear...
2025-06-1633 minGrace Church San DiegoSermon | Josh Martin | "The Lion's Den" | June 8, 2025Hello Grace Church. Congrats to any of you who ran the marathon last week. Hopefully you’re recovering well. We are back in the book of Daniel this week covering the most famous part of the story: The Lions Den. You may have first heard this story as a kid but I hope we can feel it in the broader context. The book of Daniel is showing us a pattern on purpose. For the second time now, God is showing his power to deliver even in the face of death. There’s a new king and a new kingdom, and...
2025-06-0931 minGrace Church San DiegoJosh Martin | Sermon | "The Party That Ended the Empire" | June 1, 2025Hello Grace Church. Can you believe we're in June?! I look forward to starting the month strong as we continue in the book of Daniel. This week (and next) we have a new king but sadly, the same issues endure. King Nebuchadnezzar has been gone for 20 years, his grandson is in charge, and nothing has changed. Pride and self reliance still reign in Babylon and God has had enough. In one night God sends a message of swift judgement on the whole empire. In Daniel 5 we will see that God is patient and God is just. God...

This Sunday was very special as we welcomed home the Jacobs family, our long-term missionaries serving with Hope of Life in Guatemala. They will be visiting to share with us how God has been moving in their lives and the lives they are serving in Guatemala.We will be looking at Luke 15 and the parable of the lost sheep in order to see what it means to value all lives with dignity and worth. Jesus's parable reminds us that the Kingdom of God always brings hope, joy, and transformation. Jesse...
2025-05-2842 minGrace Church San DiegoScott Laughlin | Sermon | "Humbled in Babylon" | May 18, 2025Hi Grace Church!Last week in Daniel 3, we saw three young men stand firm in the fire and come out untouched—because God met them there. This Sunday, the fire isn’t literal—it’s personal. In Daniel 4, the most powerful man in the world is brought to his knees—not by an army, but by his own pride. Nebuchadnezzar had everything: success, influence, power… and yet he lost it all in a moment. Why? Because he refused to surrender.This story reminds us that you can build an empire and still lose your soul. But the good...
2025-05-2131 minGrace Church San DiegoJosh Martin | Sermon | "Another in the Fire" | May 11, 2025Hi Grace! This Sunday we continue in the book of Daniel, taking on one of (in my opinion) the top 5 stories in all the Old Testament. At this point, Judah has been in exile for a 15-20 years. It looks like Babylon is succeeding in assimilating people to their worldview. By way of celebration the King builds a massive statue to celebrate and force everyone to worship.The stage is set for a first commandment showdown. Will the people of God bow down to a false god? What will happen if they don’t? What wi...
2025-05-1429 minGrace Church San DiegoJosh Martin | Sermon | May 4, 2025Hello Grace Church. Welcome to the month of May! We’re moving into Daniel Chapter 2 this week where Daniel and his friends are faced with another life threatening situation. The king has a nightmare and is going to execute everyone who can’t tell him what the dream is and what it means. This story gives us further insight on how to live as exiles in Babylon. Daniel seeks the Lord and God gives him the dream and the meaning. Empires come and go, leaders rise and fall, but there is a Kingdom coming that will outlast the...

God is so good to us! This week we're starting a new series and beginning the story of Daniel - a young man taken from his home, planted in a culture that didn't know God, and yet remained unshakably faithful. Like Daniel, we are living in a kind of a "Babylon" - a world that often pulls us to compromise, blend in, or disengage in God's mission. But what if being an "exile in Babylon" isn't a punishment... but...
2025-04-2934 minGrace Church San DiegoSermon | Josh Martin | "I Am The Vine" | April 13, 2025Hi Grace! This week we’re continuing what is known as the “Farewell Discourse” where Jesus gives his parting words to his closest followers, “I am the vine, you are the branches.” This is the 7th “I Am” statement, spoken just a few hours before his death. Jesus' words in this final statement simultaneously comfort and convict. He is the vine and we are the branches. This implies, we need pruning, we need union to stay fruitful, and without Christ we can do nothing.
2025-04-1631 minGrace Church San DiegoSermon | Omar Garcia | "The Way, The Truth, The Life" | April 6, 2025Hey Grace Church Family!This Sunday we are exploring one of the most famously quoted "I Am" statements that Jesus made about himself: “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” It’s the sixth “I Am” statement in our series, and it feels more relevant than ever in the world we live in today. Jesus is the Way for those who feel lost. He is the Truth for those who are wrestling with doubt. And He is the Life for those running on empty. If you or someone...

So far it’s 3 down, 4 to go. In John 10, Jesus tells us, “I Am the Good Shepherd.” This is one of the most well known claims of Christ and it shows us not just what he thinks of us, or does for us, but what he feels about us. Jesus is unique in history because He’s not a leader that died and left us his teachings. He’s a leader who is alive and wants to know us and lead us...
2025-03-2535 minGrace Church San DiegoSermon | Josh Martin | March 16, 2025Hello Grace Church, this Sunday we will continue looking at the 7 “I AM” statements of Jesus in the Gospel of John. Two weeks ago, Jesus fed the crowd bread then said I am the bread of life, the only place to find satisfaction. Last week, Jesus healed a man born blind then said I am the light of the world, the place for visibility in the darkness. As we move through John’s Gospel, the claims of Christ will get stronger and stronger. This Sunday may be the least well-known of the 7 statements, but it is no...

This week, we'll explore what it means for Jesus to be the light that guides us through the darkness of life, and the danger of living apart from His light.As we reflect on His words, we’ll discover how embracing the light of Christ can transform our lives, dispel the darkness around us, and lead us into a deeper, more fulfilling relationship wi...
2025-03-1134 minGrace Church San DiegoSermon | Josh Martin | "The Bread of Life" | March 2, 2025Hello Grace Church, can you believe we already finished the book of Jonah? It was short in length but rich in meaning. We're excited to start a new series this week looking at the 7 “I AM” statements of Jesus in the Gospel of John. There are so many thoughts, opinions and hot takes in the world on who Jesus is and who He isn’t, but people rarely let Jesus speak for himself. That’s why this series is so important. We want to ask the question, “Who did Jesus say He was and what does that mean for u...
2025-03-0334 minGrace Church San DiegoSermon | Josh Martin | February 23, 2025Hello Grace Church,In the first two chapters, God said “go”, Jonah said “no”, then in the last chapter God said “go” and Jonah said “fine.” The end of chapter 3 is where the story should end, but sadly it doesn’t. There’s more to the story. This week we are going to see Jonah’s heart revealed and God’s heart revealed. The moral of the story is that Jonah is not concerned with the same thing God is. I look forward to inviting us to have the same concerns as God, and repent when He reveals to us that we don’t.

Last Sunday, we saw Jonah get swallowed by a great fish and spend three days in its belly before he cried out to God for help. In His mercy, God rescued Jonah and gave him a second chance.Have you ever felt like you’ve messed up so bad that God could never use you? Jonah felt the same way.He ran from God, yet God still pursued him with grace. God’s mercy and love is available to the runaway, the reluctant, and the re...

Last week we saw Jonah running from God and this week we will see him returning to God. Sort of. After three days in the big fish Jonah cries out God and is spat out onto dry land. Jonah is repentant but still reluctant.He obeys, but does so begrudgingly not broken heartedly. No matter how we come to God, He is merciful to receive us. But I pray we return, over and over again, with contrite spirits and hearts th...

We're excited to start a new book of the Bible with you this week as we dive into the book of Jonah. (Pun intended)At first blush it can feel like this is a story about a man being swallowed by a big fish, but I think we will see over the next month that this story is about a merciful God pursuing people who are running from him.We all run. We all have heard the Word of the Lord and gone the other direction. We are all like Jonah in tha...
2025-02-0430 minGrace Church San DiegoJosh Martin | Sermon | "Hindered Prayers" | January 26, 2025Hi Grace! This week we are going to talk about a sensitive, yet important topic: Forgiveness. One theologian I read said this is the heart of the Lord’s prayer because it’s the heart of the Kingdom of God.
When Jesus tells his disciples to pray like this: Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors, he’s teaching us that God’s forgiveness of us is tied to our forgiveness of others.
I pray that this week we can see that the forgiveness we have received from God empowers us to forgive others.
2025-01-2736 minGrace Church San DiegoScott Laughlin | Sermon | "Is It Okay to Ask God for Things?" | January 19, 2025Hi Grace Church! This Sunday marks the third week of our Pray Like This series!If we’re honest, many of us spend much of our prayer life asking God for things—whether it’s a new job, financial stability, a relationship, or a change in our circumstances. Realizing this can sometimes leave us feeling guilty. But is it wrong to ask God for what we need?
This week, we’ll explore how Jesus teaches His disciples to bring their needs to God. We’ll uncover together how asking God for things isn’t just okay—it’s Biblical when...

Last week we looked at “where” to pray, this week we will look at “how” to pray. In the model prayer Jesus tells us to start by addressing our Heavenly Father who is Holy in all his ways. The reminds us of our collective identity as children of God, who have access to the Father through Jesus.
Then the prayer moves to “Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven”. In this phrase Jesus is expressing a deep desire fo...
2025-01-1333 minGrace Church San DiegoSermon | Josh Martin | "Pray Like This" | January 5, 2024Hello Grace Church, Happy New Year!
Every January people dream and clean and purge and promise. They create gym plans, meal plans, financial plans, all the plans. It’s hard not to get swept up in the opportunity to start fresh.
This year as a church, I believe God is inviting us into a simple practice that will ground us in all our efforts. Nothing wrong with plans, but if they aren’t centered on our relationship with God and communion with Him, they fall short.
This will be the third year in a row we’ve started January with a...

Can you believe we are finishing the book of Hebrews this week?!? Well, technically we will finish it on Christmas Eve, but this is our last Sunday in the book.
Hebrews 13 is called “Concluding Exhortations,” but it reads more like a parent trying to give advice to a kid leaving for college on a train. It feels rushed and random. But with some further investigation, you realize the advice is more like the family code.
This week we will see the practical implications of the Gospel in the world, the family, and the...

This week we are moving into Hebrews Chapter 12. After giving a “history of faith,” the author tells his church, "it’s our turn now.” He tells us they ran their race, and now we need to run ours.

Part of being a "Great Commission" church means that we not only organize and mobilize our church to be on mission, but we also grow healthy disciples. We are facing a culture that struggles greatly with anxiety, trauma, stress, sin, and so much more. But what if...

Incarnation? It is not a word we use. It is an idea few understand. The incarnation is the theological truth that the eternal Son of God took on flesh and became a human. That the Son left heaven and moved into our neighborhood. Mind blown! This Sunday, we hope Grace Church comes to love the doctrine and what it means for our lives.
On Sunday, we will answer three questions about the incarnation and unpack two ways it can impact our lives. First, we will answer how the incarnation fits into the big picture of who...

Second, we will explore what "belonging" looks like at Grace Church for these people. There are stories of people being hurt by churches because of a lack of clarity or a "bait and switch."

In one verse we get the whole story, and by God’s grace this Sunday people will surrender to God’s love and God’s gift of life. Join us in praying that new believers and old believers would trust in Christ's sacrifice.
