God’s story is the ultimate frame for our own. Our stories are most meaningful when they are swept up into and rewritten by his.

God’s character, which he’d already proven by his redemptive works, he now proclaimed in words: The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious…

Father God, we come before your throne of grace with confidence knowing that you not only deeply desire our requests, but you also want our constricted hearts.
We stand in awe of your power and glory and we ask on behalf of the children, women and men who are victims of Modern-Day Slavery to rescue them.
We, your children, ask for their freedom, restoration and salvation. We claim the blood of Jesus and the power of Resurrection to break the chains of oppression, lust, lies, physical, emotional and psychological abuse that trap these victims in our city, in our country and in every corner of the world.
We also ask that your Spirit of unity will be present in those of us whom you have called to fight on behalf of the hurting in this city of San Diego. Fill us with your power through your Holy Spirit. Fill us with broken hearts so we will be moved and fight your battle. Grant us the wisdom to know what you have called us to do on behalf of these victims. Open the windows of heaven and pour down your Holy Spirit and every resource needed to do your work.
We are confident that You, the Sovereign God, will create a change in our city. We want to see transformed lives; we want to see the freedom that you offer in the lives of these victims. We want to see your Kingdom in our midst. Please Jesus hear our prayers.
Amen

“It is not so true that “prayer changes things” as that prayer changes me and I change things. God has so constituted things that prayer on the basis of Redemption alters the way in which a man looks at things. Prayer is not a question of altering things externally, but of working wonders in a man’s disposition.”

“Have you ever realized that you can give things to God that are of value to Him? Or are you just sitting around daydreaming about the greatness of His redemption, while neglecting all the things you could be doing for Him? I’m not referring to works which could be regarded as divine and miraculous, but ordinary, simple human things – things which would be evidence to God that you are totally surrendered to Him.”

“By Christ’s purchasing redemption, two things are intended: his satisfaction and his merit; the one pays our debt, and so satisfies; the other procures our title, and so merits. The satisfaction of Christ is to free us from misery; the merit of Christ is to purchase happiness for us.”

“We desperately need to understand something of the magnitude of sin, of evil, and of gross wickedness in this world if we are to appreciate our redemption.

three W’s – WORSHIP. WALK. WORK.
The path of authentic discipleship is a lifetime of following Jesus Christ more consistently and closely.
Growing disciples go through a continual process called sanctification, which simply means becoming more and more like our Lord. We like to describe that as worshiping, walking, and working for Christ. And when we become intentional about seeking to honor God in these three ways, we can’t help but become “mature in Christ” (Colossians 1:28), growing deeper in our relationship with God and our relationships with others. Disciple-making is to be worked out together in ministry to one another. We believe it’s not about one or a small number of pastors bearing the total responsibility to care for the entire congregation. Rather it’s about all disciples using their God-given spiritual gifts to provide mutual ministry to build each other up, all in the context of a vibrant and strong local church (Ephesians 4:11-12).

High Impact Worship Services
Worship in spirit. At Redemption, corporate worship is highly participatory. We invite our people to worship with passion and energy. We don’t want to be lazy or lethargic when it comes to worship. Instead, we want to be enthusiastic and demonstrative. Scripture allows for a great deal of freedom in worship (clapping, kneeling, raising hands, etc.) but not without losing sight of the object of our worship-we worship God through Jesus Christ in the Holy Spirit. Emotions are an acceptable part of worship, but should never be manipulated or fabricated. Healthy and appropriate expressions of emotion are part of what it means to worship genuinely in the Spirit.
Worship in truth. The Bible is the ultimate authority when it comes to worship. At Redemption, therefore, we strive to worship in truth – the truth of who God is as revealed in Scripture. Strict attention is paid to theological content, ensuring that every lyric sung, every word spoken, and every art form expressed is biblically sound and supported. We also look to God’s Word to discern how God desires to be worshiped rather than follow the wisdom of man or the latest cultural fad. This is Vertical worship.
Uncommon Community
Our primary means to develop our gifts, and to minister to one another is through Small Groups. Everyone who calls Redemption their church home is strongly encouraged to take part in a Small Group where the Scriptures are opened, lives are shared and prayer is upheld.
One MISSION
Redemption Bible Church exists to glorify God through the fulfillment of the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20).
