Sunday message from Community Church Playa given on June 28 by Pastor Oscar Navarro. In the final week of our Exiles series, we are reminded that God is faithful even when we are not. We often abandon the promises of God for lesser things, but Scripture calls us to trust the God who restores, renews and keeps His word.

Sunday message from Community Church Playa given on June 21 by Pastor Amen Bains. In this sermon from Jeremiah 33, we see that God’s restoration is not quiet: where devastation once silenced joy, He brings back the sounds of healing, worship, thanksgiving, and life with Him.

As Jeremiah speaks hope from the middle of Jerusalem’s collapse, we are reminded that God’s final word over His people is not silence, shame, exile, or death, but restoration in Him.
