Sermons from San Diego
Mission Hills UCC - United Church of Christ
The Bible isn't just a collection of writings from thousands of years ago, it is often remarkably relevant to living today. For example, we can mourn the state of our divided world. Or we can find hope and sustenance as we pursue a world that is open, inclusive, just, and compassionate through the teachings of Jesus and the prophets. Listen to Rev. Dr. David Bahr from Mission Hills United Church of Christ in San Diego make connections to scripture for living faith-fully today.
Learn more about our congregation at www.missionhillsucc.org and come be our guest in worship at 10 am each Sunday. Or watch our services live or on demand on YouTube.

In the Name of Jesus
Sermons from San Diego
04/21/24 • 13 min
Peter and John did something extraordinary “In the name of Jesus.” As I thought about my sermon title today, the phrase “in the name of Jesus” kept coming to mind, but I hesitated – picture the over-the-top antics of a television evangelist. “In the name of Jeee-sus!” But I kept the title because I want to tell you about something extraordinary done in the name of Jesus on Tuesday.

Peter: Unfiltered, Abrupt, and Unafraid
Sermons from San Diego
02/18/24 • 15 min
Peter’s names pop up in story after story, but not as a complete narrative of his own. This Lent, we’re going to take a deeper dive into the faith of this one individual, and yet even so, we’ll only get to skim the surface of this impetuous, impulsive, and unfiltered character. A deeply flawed but even more deeply passionate and committed disciple of Christ.
Today's text is Luke 5: 1-11
