God Is...

April 27, 2025 - May 18, 2025

Who is God—really? In a world full of confusion, shifting values, and endless voices claiming to have the truth, the letter of 1 John cuts through the noise with clarity and confidence. God is—and He wants to be known. This three-week series unpacks the character of God through the lens of 1 John, helping us fill in the blank with timeless truth. When we know who God is, we begin to understand who we are and how we’re meant to live. He’s everything we’ve all been looking for, whether we realize it or not.

God Is Truth

Week #1 May 18, 2025 Carlos Ortiz

Truth isn’t merely a concept; it’s a person—Jesus Christ. God’s truth is relational, not just informational. It’s not a set of doctrines to memorize but a life to encounter, and a God to know. To walk in truth is to walk in alignment with Him—His nature, His character, and His revelation through Jesus.

God Is Love

Week #3 May 11, 2025 Carlos Ortiz

God’s love is not just a feeling or an abstract concept; it is who He is. John tells us, “God is love.” The real, genuine love that we are called to extend to others flows directly from the love God has shown us through Jesus Christ. This love isn't about mere emotion—it is sacrificial, selfless, and transformative.

God Is Hope

Week #2 May 4, 2025 Carlos Ortiz

The world is full of uncertainties, but in Jesus, we have a certain and secure hope that transcends anything this world can offer. The hope that we have in Christ is not wishful thinking—it’s certain, future hope. Hope isn’t just something we look forward to; it also changes how we live now. Because of the hope we have in Christ, we are called to purify ourselves, to live with an eternal perspective that influences how we handle the challenges of today.
