ABOUT US

Discover Church was born from a God-sized dream to see lives transformed by Jesus in San Marcos, CA. For us, church is about people discovering hope, purpose, and community in Christ. Our journey in ministry has spanned over a decade, leading a church in WA state for ten years, youth pastoring, discipling leaders, and seeing firsthand how the gospel changes lives. We are passionate about making Jesus known, building authentic relationships, and equipping people to live out their faith in a meaningful way.

When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
— John 8:12
