Dr. Carmen Joy Imes delivers a powerful seminar on Women in the Bible and the Church, followed by a lively Q&A session with a live audience at Park Hill Church. In this seminar, Carmen unpacks what the scriptures teach about the value of women and men fully participating in the life of the Church together as God's co-equal image bearers. Carmen is associate professor of Old Testament at Talbot School of Theology at Biola University and is the author of several incredible books: Bearing God's...
Dr. Carmen Joy Imes visits Park Hill for a full Sunday. This recording is from our morning worship services. In this "Part One" teaching (Part Two happened later in the evening, all about women in the Bible and the Church), Carmen unpacks what it means that ALL humans ARE the image of God, and she draws the profound implications for how we should think about people with disabilities, creation care, and immigration. Carmen is associate professor of Old Testament at Talbot School of Theology at Bi...
In this teaching, we consider what Christians mean when we use the word “God.” There’s also a lot of vagueness and haze that comes when we use this word, even as Christians. We talk about “God” as though we’re talking about the same thing. But most of the time, we aren’t talking about the same thing at all—and that’s just IN the church. When people talk about God outside the church, things get even more vague. In the famous story of Moses and God meeting at a burning bush, we are presented with ...
Feelings can be tricky—they’re personal, sometimes unreliable, and easy to misinterpret. But the Bible shows us that they’re also a vital part of faith. Scripture doesn’t dismiss our emotions; instead, it gives us a roadmap to help us navigate them, leading us to their true purpose—deep, childlike intimacy with God, the creator of facts and Lord of our feelings.
What if one of the greatest blessings in the Church is the presence of its own suffering people? Do you believe the Church needs sufferers? Brenna Blain visits Park Hill with a vulnerable message about how important it is for people to bring their authentic grief and loss into the center of the community in Jesus’ name.
As a lawyer fresh out of law school, Jonathan Derby thought he knew what justice was. Punishment for the evildoer. Right? Today, Jonathan knows the justice of Jesus encompasses so much more than that. It's less about seeking punishment for evil and more about restoring humans who have been deprived of the flourishing God intends. Jonathan Derby is the Director of the Center for Justice and Reconciliation at Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU). He oversees an incredible initiative, which Park H...
Do you know what sex-trafficking is? Would you recognize it happening if you were staring right at it? Many of us think we would. But the sad truth is, our view of trafficking has been shaped more by the movies than by reality, which in turn enables human trafficking to hide in plain sight. It's time for the Church to open her eyes and move toward this issue with active compassion and willingness to learn. Wheeler Fisher has worked directly with survivors of sex-trafficking for years. After serv...
Hope Leadership Academy (HLA) exists to give San Diego children a chance to thrive in a world full of hope and joy. And it is easier than you think to get involved. Sarah Reed is Program Director, Volunteer Manager, and Elementary Lead Academy Coordinator at HLA. In this conversation, she shares the biggest struggles facing at-risk youth right now. The Church can be an immediate solution to many of these problems. The question is, will we get up and move toward the vulnerable? Get involved in he...
10,000 people are currently homeless in San Diego. 70% of those people became homeless while living here. Can the Church be a crucial part of the solution to such a rampant problem? We believe so. Ashley Guzik Murray is Associate Director of Church Partnerships at San Diego Rescue Mission. She's also an amazing leader in our Park Hill Church community. In this conversation, hear Ashley's personal story of Christ's transformative power. If you don't want your heart inspired to actively love the h...
There are currently 1,400 kids in the San Diego foster system. What is life like for a child in the system? What happens to the kids who don't end up placed in a foster home? In this illuminating conversation, Missy Bell briefly describes "the state of the union" of foster care in our city, as well as practical ways the Church of Jesus can literally participate in saving young lives. Find simple ways to get involved in orphan care. Contact Olive Crest San Diego – 619.291.9347...
Today we kickoff of SEVEN 2025—a multi-church week of worship, prayer and fasting. According to Isaiah 58, the fast God chooses is not a fast that simply benefits the ones fasting. Instead, true fasting leads us to embrace the poor and vulnerable in the name of Christ Jesus. But what does this look like practically? Today, Evan Wickham presents the "what" and "why" of fasting, and then we get to hear from amazing representatives from the following four Park Hill Church's justice partners. Our tr...
Matthew Pursley teaches from Genesis 45:1-7, exploring how challenging and frustrating forgiveness can be. Saying "I forgive you" is often easier than truly meaning it from the heart. Yet, God promises that when we lay our pain at the feet of Jesus, we can experience true healing.
This is part three of our vision series. When Jesus calls disciples to follow him, he invites them to become fishers of people. This means all followers of Jesus are to be agents of renewal by drawing people into the kingdom work God is already doing in the world. And Jesus doesn’t leave us alone in this work. He promises the empowering presence of his Holy Spirit to us.
For Part 2 of our 2025 Vision series, we consider what it means (and requires) to become like Jesus. Could it be true that God offers us the power to change today? What would it look like to become a church that “strenuously contends” to see one another mature spiritually? Come and see.

As we look forward to the rest of 2025, we revisit our vision as a church. Our vision begins with Jesus, and Jesus invites us, first and foremost, to be with him. To abide in him. What does it look like for a whole church to abide in the goodness and authority of the person of Jesus? The answer can be summed up in one word: "believe.”

Erika Mellado, one of Parkhill’s Elders, teaches on 1 Corinthians 12:12-31, which discusses the meaning of living in unity amidst our differences. In the body of Christ, there is beauty in diversity, and the Holy Spirit uniquely gifts each member. The emphasis is on making ourselves available to serve and bless one another in love.
Recorded live (with audience Q&R) on Sunday night, Jan 26, 2025. Author and pastor Chris Nye provides a solid vision of what it looks like for Christians to be a confounding presence. He paints the picture through an journey across time and space, bringing in examples from the global church and the historic church. In this lecture, Nye offers inspiration for the American church to live in a way that witnesses to the cross of Christ amidst political, cultural, and sociological challenges. Our...
Chris Nye, pastor of Imago Dei Community in Portland, Oregon, visits Park Hill with a timely message. The cross of Christ will always be considered foolishness by societies. So rather than conspiring to ‘make Jesus relevant’ to culture, what if Christians passionately and unapologetically preached the confounding message of the cross with boldness? If the cross is supposed to feel scandalous to our surrounding culture, there’s no making it relevant. There is only preaching Christ and him crucifi...
In our moment of polarization and uncertainty, the world is longing for peace and belonging. We believe the Church exists to be the place on earth where heaven comes and fulfills these longings in every human heart. This dream becomes reality when God’s children open themselves to receive the Holy Spirit.
