Our Story

“Don’t Just Go to Church, LIV Church”

Who We Are:

LIV Church was born out of a desire to see lives transformed by the hope and truth of Jesus. After years of pastoring in San Diego, Pastor Eric Maggio felt God calling him to plant something new—fresh, faithful, and focused on real connection. LIV Church is about living fully in Christ, reaching the community, and raising up a new generation of disciples.

Vision Statement:

We exist to bring life, hope, and purpose through the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Core Values:

Truth in Grace – We teach the Bible faithfully and love people radically.

Life in Community – Church is more than a service; it’s a family.

Mission in Action – We serve San Diego with bold compassion and practical help.

Next-Gen Discipleship – We invest in future leaders—kids, students, and families.
