Generation Church South Oceanside

This week we continue our study through Acts 13! Have you ever wished or prayed that people in your life, family/friends would come to know Jesus? Have you ever struggled with how to be a part of that? Have you ever gone back and forth about what the right way to go about sharing with them would be? Have you ever thought about what we can do to be prepared to share when we have the opportunity?  T...

The book of Acts has repeatedly demonstrated this powerful truth:  God’s plan is unstoppable . It is in the midst of opposition that we get to see just how powerful and astonishing the gospel is, and that nothing and no one will thwart God’s mission of gospel saturation and the expansion of His Church across the globe.  Join us in Acts 13:1-12 as we see the gospel breaking through the lies and dec...

This week we are blessed to have Dain teach through Acts 13, where the focus is on how God is the one who calls, sends, and empowers. The missionaries are not leaving the church to go out on their own; They have the Holy Spirit! The body of believers (the Church) is the conduit God uses to send the missionaries to the ends of the earth. Join us as we continue to explore how God's mission has...

Well… things were going well for a bit with the church and then tragedy struck… James is murdered by a tyrant King Agrippa. And if that wasn’t bad enough… they’ve arrested Peter and it looks like he’s next to be killed. Not the thriving church plan they had hoped for.  So what happens next?  Will God rescue? Will evil prevail? How is that helpful for me today? Come dive into Acts 12 with us this S...

It's Super Bowl Sunday!  Most people don't realize the sheer absurdity of how low the odds are that anyone would ever be able to play in such a game.  NCAA research states that only 0.08% of all high school football players will even be drafted to the NFL, let alone make it to the Super Bowl!  So if being on a big stage is reserved for statistical elites...what about the rest of us?  Wha...

Research tells us that learning can be cemented in the brain through repetition. Malcolm Gladwell, in his book 'Outliers,' claims it takes roughly 10,000 hours to become a master in any given craft.  So what is it that God finds worthwhile to repeat?  As we look at Acts 11, Tim talks about the things God finds worth in repeating for us. And as we'll see, some things are so good you...

This week we continue our journey in Acts (Chapter 10) as we encounter a day where everything changed...a moment that no one saw coming, not even Peter. God is about to do something that radically alters the trajectory and identity of the church forever, and demonstrates the power of the gospel to unite what the world seeks to divide. 

This Sunday Tim continues our series in Acts in a section where we see Jesus heal 2 people through Peter’s ministry. Physical healing was a regular part of Jesus’ ministry and Acts is showing us how and why Jesus continued to heal people physically. If you’ve ever wondered or wrestled with this subject, Sunday’s teaching is definitely for you!

This morning we have our friends from Prague, Czech Republic with us - The Harrods (Zach & Misa).  

Today we continue our series through the book of Acts.

It doesn't take an advanced degree to take a look around our world and see that it is filled with darkness.  Sadly, even when we look within we still are faced with darkness.  Why do we hurt the ones we love the most?  What is the cause of the darkness around us and inside us?  What will bring light to the world around us and within us?  This is the story of Christmas... Pastor Tim Parlier co...

This Sunday we continue our intermittent series "This is Us" where we highlight some of what Jesus has done and is doing through members our church family.  David and Rebecca are raw, real and their story puts the rescuing, redeeming grace of Jesus on display in a powerful way. "This is Us" series will be taken from the theme of 1 Peter 2:4-6  (ESV): "As you come to him (J...

In Acts 9, the author Luke turns our attention to the most famous conversion in history: the conversion of Saul of Tarsus. This is not something the early church saw coming. It's a story that reveals the lengths God is willing to go to rescue even the worst of sinners. It's a story that reveals the redemptive heart of God and leaves you responding in amazement, "Are you kidding me? 

What if the people and circumstances we encounter aren't just random moments? What if those interruptions are actually divinely orchestrated appointments by a God who is passionately pursuing the lost and the least? In this message from Acts 8, we see how the Spirit, Scripture, and our Savior are involved in bringing about Divine Appointments in our everyday lives.

Guest speaker Peyton Jones teaches from Matthew 11:28-30.

Tim continues our series in Acts 8:1-25 in the story of Simon the Sorcerer. 

Tim teaches through Acts 7 to help us understand how encountering Jesus gives us what we need to endure.

Our Spanish church planting resident Pastor Omar Loza takes us through Paul's letter to Timothy and what it teaches us about spiritual disciplines and how they help us grow closer to Jesus and become more like Him.

Do You ever find yourself saying “YES” to things when you really should’ve said “NO”?  Do you ever feel burned out by the pace of life? You’re not alone. This Sunday we’re continuing our study in the book of Acts chapter 6 in a message called “Help, I’m Overcommitted!”
