La Jolla Presbyterian Church Sermons

Amazed And Perplexed - Sermon 8th June, 2025

La Jolla Presbyterian Church

This Sunday, we start our new series, Eyewitness: Part 2 – The Spirit Comes. The Church Begins., and Pastor Paul Cunningham will bring a message titled "Amazed and Perplexed." In Acts 2:1–13, we witness the Holy Spirit poured out on the disciples, fulfilling Jesus' promise and marking the birth of the Church. It's a powerful moment: people from every nation hear the wonders of God in their own languages, leaving the crowd both amazed and perplexed! As we begin this new series, we're invited to see how the Spirit is still moving—empowering the Church, breaking down barriers, and calling us into bold, Spirit-filled lives. Join us for worship and teaching as we open our hearts to the movement of His Spirit.

Questions to consider:
1. Where do you need to experience the power of the Holy Spirit’s restoring power? Are you praying for that?
2. When was the last time you talked about your faith with someone? Is there someone near you who needs to know about “why” you follow Jesus?

We want to connect with you! Email Pastor Chad at chadf@ljpres.org to get plugged in, or you can find our website at ljpres.org/connect. We hope to see lives transformed by a relationship with Jesus, and we strive to be a place where you experience and are able to express that transforming love of Christ.

It builds our faith to help give back a portion of what God has given us. If you would like to help further His work in La Jolla, San Diego and the world you can give online at LJPres.org/Donate.
