We long for San Diego to be a place where everyone and everything is flourishing.

Hear from our founder

Our mission is to help followers of Jesus find joy in becoming a redemptive presence in our city.

Check out some of our offerings:

ACADEMY

We host the Flourish Academy to help people think deeply about the church and to help them find joy in becoming a redemptive presence in our city.

COHORTS

We gather ministry leaders into cohorts focused on their own spiritual formation and just-in-time peer-coaching.

CONFESSIONAL COMMUNITY

Our Confessional Community creates a confidential, grace-filled environment where congregational leaders can step out of their professional roles and simply be known…

RETREATS

We gather ministry leaders to retreat to the mountains of Idyllwild, CA twice a year for rest and restoration for the soul.

 

Flourish Academy

Our flagship learning community conducted each year. This is the logical entry point for the most comprehensive articulation of how to contextualize our faith in today’s world.

Leadership Cohorts

These groups are a setting to reinforce learnings from the Academy. It is both a place to pursue the spiritual formation journey with safe allies as well as offer just-in-time peer-coaching to one another. We also want to foster and curate relational connections between leaders throughout San Diego. 

Soul Care Retreat

A gathering of congregational leaders in the mountain of Idyllwild, CA for rest and restoration for the soul. The next retreat is October 22-24, 2024.

My involvement with Flourish San Diego has allowed me to develop a broader vision of what it means to thrive in pastoral ministry. While my previous academic and theological training from seminary has been important and necessary for my formation, I’ve discovered that thriving in pastoral ministry requires more.

Jason, Pastor at GC2 Church

Growing up without any exposure to faith, I spent the past thirty years searching and wandering. But after attending Flourish Academy, everything finally makes sense. For the first time, I have a framework I never had before, and all the pieces of my journey are coming together. I’m excited, grateful, and fully committed to following Jesus! I look forward to being baptized in the near future.
