After running into our former Chicago youth leader at Disneyland, he suggested that we give Eastside a shot. Eastside's values are to Pursue God, Build Community, and Unleash Compassion and you'll struggle to find a more genuine and compassionate group of Christians in any area of the country or world. They have a genuine heart for the broken hearted, the struggling, the addicted, and the unchurched/uncertain and anyone will find themselves at home here, even if you don't believe you are a Christian (in fact their unofficial motto is "this is for everyone"). There's a place for everyone to volunteer or serve here too, whether it's in Production, at the cafe, as a greeter or in the kids ministry, Kidside (which is always a highlight of my daughter's week!) I highly encourage you to give Eastside a shot if you want a church or are interested in learning more about Christianity! Interested in checking Eastside out? Please dm me. I'd be happy to sit with you in service and make introductions!

PLEASE READ BEFORE ATTENDING…read more Please do your research before getting involved with this "church." My experience left me extremely concerned, and honestly, it felt more like a business than a church. One of the biggest things that bothered me was the way Jesus and Christianity were talked about during the service. There were comments and jokes that came across as sarcastic and disrespectful toward Jesus. In my opinion, the pastor was making a mockery of Jesus rather than honoring Him. That was extremely disturbing to witness in a place that claims to be teaching Christianity. The atmosphere was also very unusual. Before the message even started, everyone was instructed to repeat phrases from the screen, raise their hands in specific ways, and hold up their Bibles while following the instructions. The pastor even told the new visitors something along the lines of, "I know this might look weird, but this is our ritual before we get into the Word." I found that very strange and uncomfortable. There were also speakers throughout the property -- inside the building, outside, in the bathrooms, and even in the parking lot. With the constant audio, repeated phrases, hand motions, and instructions coming from the screens, the entire experience felt very trance-like and unsettling to me. Another major red flag was the amount of emphasis placed on money and donations. There was a presentation explaining multiple ways to donate, and the welcome materials seemed to focus heavily on tithing and giving financially. What stood out to me was how little I saw about actually teaching the Gospel compared to the emphasis on giving. The pamphlets even asked for credit card information, which I had never experienced at a church before.

If you are looking for God, he is here. I have been attending for 4 years and every time I felt…read moreGod's presence at River arena. Pastor Dante is down to earth and tells it like it is. His sermons are about real life, your day to day walk with Jesus, and the grace of God. He sprinkles in a lot of humor and he isn't scared to talk about taboo subjects, especially in our Hispanic culture where it is hidden or frowned upon. I always see how busy he is with so many projects but still humble with his congregation. I really love the church. When I first came to this church I was really broken over many bad situations in my life. Slowly I gave my control to God and just as slowly (maybe slower) because God is funny sometimes, but I got a second chance at life. Pastor Dante and all his staff are not pushovers and allow members to stand on their own feet. No one here is spoon fed but they are really interested in your walk with Jesus. There are no harsh words or condemnation coming down on you but things do get revealed to you through the word of God. Personally I appreciate Pastor Danny. He always says hi, he has kind words for me, asks me how I liked the service and truly cares. I see him interact with everyone and it's really nice to be surrounded by caring brothers and sisters here. His wife sings during worship at River and i really believe in her lifelong walk with Jesus, she is a good role model for any woman or christian alike. It is easy to see flaws or find issues with anything in life, Pastor Dante is ridiculed a lot online but if you are looking for a church - anyone is welcome here. Pastor Dante believes that our church is like a hospital for the soul, he says some members are on IVs, others are taking medicine and some are about to get downgraded to another unit.. We congregate here to recognize that Jesus has already healed us and we walk together until we are with him forever.

I hate leaving bad reviews but I wish someone warned me before coming Here…read more It literally felt like a cult :( A Ted talk and concert. The pastor is an amazing speaker, but the Bible was never opened and he didn't quote any scripture. He spoke well but I felt very uneasy during the service. I love everyone who lead people closer to God but I dislike and can't agree with the way they run its service. It just wasn't for me. Ps They had a merch store and inside they had figurines of the pastor for sale.... like what???? I knew for sure this wasn't a house of God.

I went to church to pray and give thanks to God for the progress I've made in my personal goals and…read morethe recent success I've experienced. I had made an oath and felt genuinely called to go pray. When I arrived, Mass was already in progress, but I only intended to quietly join for a few minutes. As I walked in, an older woman at the front stopped me. I was wearing a hat, which I planned to remove once I sat down, but before I could do that, she told me I wasn't allowed to enter. I asked why, explaining that I just wanted to pray and be part of the service. She refused and told me I couldn't come in. Then, she went as far as to physically hit my hat and told me I was being disrespectful. I asked again if she was seriously denying me access to join the Mass and pray, and she said yes. She told me to go to the chapel instead if I wanted to pray. I've never experienced anything like this before especially in a place that's supposed to be open to anyone seeking God. It felt wrong to be turned away like that when all I wanted was to pray and express gratitude.

The church itself is beautiful, I've never attended mass here so I can't say how it is. The immersive experience was very nice and very informative. I love that everything here was proven with data and that there really was a man, Jesus Christ, that was crucified the way the bible is written! This shroud is a replica and from what I saw it will be on display here until 2030 with hopes of getting renewed. We all loved it! I highly recommend it!

Pastor Ethan has always made my wife and I feel comfortable here and has always provided us with guidance when we asked for it. I don't have kids but it appears that they have a wonderful children's ministry that seems to work really well with families. They have service on Sunday mornings at 9 am and 1030 am. It is located at the brea civic center off of birch and Randolph and parking is at an underground structure. You don't have to be a Christian to feel welcome here and I feel like anyone can be accepted here. It is not the church where people will feel as if they are being judged. If anyone out there is looking for a small community to be a part of I believe this church would be a great place to start.

I found Elevation Church about 7 years ago while searching for a positive motivational quote, but instead I found something more spectacular. For some angelic reason, my mouse landed on this church and as I listen to Pastor Steven's preaching, I felt that the sermons were intentionally written just for me. Since that day listening to him preach became a daily devotion. Elevation Church is a wonderful family to belong to and despite the distance, you will feel the warmth, togetherness and love from everybody. I recently added Elevation Church, meeting the Pastors and staff to my bucket list and I hope it will happen very soon. Check it out and maybe something good is in store for you as well.
