What does it look like to stay rooted when life feels uncertain? This Sunday, Pastor Paul is looking at Jeremiah 17:5–8. In this passage, we’re given a vivid picture of two lives—one like a shrub in the desert, and the other like a tree planted by water, steady and fruitful even in times of drought. As we move through Lent, this message invites us to consider where we are placing our trust. True resilience isn’t about strength on our own, but about being deeply rooted in God’s presence. We reflect on what it means to remain grounded, nourished, and faithful—no matter the season.

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. La Jolla Pres holds a CCLI License to live stream and archive all musical material.
