A Year of Impact: Reflecting on the Work at Canyon Springs As we close out another year at Canyon Springs Church, I reflect with deep gratitude and joy on all God is doing in and through this church. Over 20 years ago, Canyon Springs was planted with a vision to serve, love, and make an impact in San Diego and [...]
I am grateful to be your pastor. One of my favorite moments is simply sitting in my new office, sipping coffee, crafting meaningful messages (or attempting to!) However, one day, while enjoying my little haven, I received an unexpected knock on the door. It was a dear friend from Canyon Springs. I wondered why he had come. Did he have [...]
It’s here! After 25+ years of desiring a permanent location, we finally have one! After no less than a half-dozen serious attempts at getting into our own space, we're blessed to have a new place called Home! No more “setup/teardown” church every week in a school, park, or wherever God took us over the last two and a half decades. [...]
A Fond Farewell At Canyon Springs Our church has been in a series called “Get out of the boat,” detailing the faith Peter took when he stepped out of the boat to walk on water toward Jesus. From the beginning, this church has given my family great opportunities to step out of the boat. I will never forget the steps [...]
Generally, when posts and memes and tee-shirts reference 2020, they 1) point to how hard this year has been and 2) include one or more swear words to make the point. I have had more than a few moments when I have felt similar feelings about the world we live in now. Pandemic, racial tension, political unrest. I can understand [...]
Dive in with us each week as we explore the book of beginnings As we go through the book of Genesis as a congregation we wanted to provide you with an opportunity to not only read through the entire book but dive into the different theological and spiritual themes found in one of the most beautiful books in the Bible. [...]
Canyon Springs Church! Are you ready to reconnect? As we emerge from our isolation, many of us are anxious to gather. Seeking human connection, we are hitting the beaches, going to restaurants and ready to get back to church. Some of us are more cautious. Not wanting to see a spike in cases of Covid-19, we are urging friends to continue [...]
Canyon Springs Online Campus is Live! Sundays @ 9:00am - Join Us! I never wanted to go to church simply because it had the word “church” in it. I thought of judgmental people and a building filled with pews and “holier than thou” sentiments. It is tough for people that are seeking faith or asking hard questions to come to [...]
What a weekend! Our camps have been growing and we have LOVED hanging out with everyone! We took 70 students to Middle School Winter Camp...Incredible! This year we switched it up and went to Thousand Pines, a camp we've never been to before. This camp was incredible! Great amenities, fun activities and an overall fantastic experience. We will for sure [...]
Winter X 2020 was incredible. This year we did an open mic night. We have never really done this on Winter X but I felt God's leading in it. I am glad we did. As a Youth Pastor, I am constantly reminded what these kids are going through. So often, you do not really know because we are all good [...]
