He and Sabrina are really tuned in to help with everyday life and teach how the holy spirit can be a real part of solutions in any situation if you pray and ask. In a short time, I experienced answers from God and holy spirit and many blessed outcomes. I have been amazed at results. They teach how to pray, ask, have faith, and recieve blessings in any situation. The results are amazing! All in God's time. It's addictive!

Two words: CHRIS BROWN…read more No, not the rapper :) I wish this were our home church but we live all the way up in north OC. But to hear this man preach, we make the 71-mile trek every couple months and it's always worth it. Not only is he a master story-teller and super engaging and funny and all the characteristics of an effective speaker, but most importantly he is faithful to the text--he does his research and draws out details that have often gone overlooked by even seasoned students of Scripture, and delivers God's word, neither in a "seeker-friendly" manner, nor in an academic tone as if to seminary students, but rather to the soul that simply needs more Jesus (that's everyone) in no matter what stage of their Christian walk. And I love how he doesn't assume everyone in the audience is a "seasoned' Christian or even saved in the first place. He doesn't even assume you know how to navigate the Bible as he guides you how to flip to book/chapter he is preaching out of. His messages will make your eyes water and fire you up at the same time. Get ready to open the floodgates (your tear ducts ) He's helped me with my walk for years now, whether I listen online or in person. Finally the music during the service is awesome. Being a musician and having played for several worship teams over the years, I don't mean that lightly. Their play a variety of worship songs, including contemporary , oldies but goodies, AND original songs they've written themselves! --which are both easy to sing and gospel-centered at the same time.

OK, so I have been on a journey trying to find a church that truly felt like home. I was raised…read moreCatholic, but for a while there I was only showing up at Christmas and Easter, and I knew in my heart I needed something more. Something that would light me up inside and that I'd actually be excited to bring my whole family to. And then I found North Coast Church, and honestly? It changed everything. What I love most is that they offer so many different types of services , a Latin service, a more contemporary rock music service, a live music service, an outside service, so even though it's a large church, it never feels overwhelming or impersonal. No one is forcing anything on you, which I deeply appreciate. And Pastor Chris Brown? He is just so wonderful. North Coast is a church on a mission, and you can feel that the moment you walk in. If you are searching for a church home, please do yourself a favor and check them out. Go to a Brownie with Browns event, it's a great way to get to know the mission and the heart behind everything they do. I'm so, so glad I found them.

I attended a couple groups here and use to go on Sundays for worship. I have a personal situation…read morethat is ongoing but a couple weeks ago it caused me to have a lot of depression and I desperately needed help from a deliverance team. A helpful and kind woman named Norma gave me the contact information to the leader of the deliverance ministry. I told that person how depressed I was feeling but let them know that I was not going to hurt myself I just really needed help. She prayed with me and told me that she would schedule an appointment with me after getting with the Pastor first. After a few days of not hearing anything I reached back out again. She said that she was still waiting to hear from her Pastor and that she would let me know by 5pm. That night around 7:30pm the police show up at my door saying that the church reported me and was worried I would hurt myself. This is five days after my conversation with this woman and her team. Two weeks later and still no one has reached out willing to help me with deliverance. When I attempted to address it they did not take responsibility nor were they accountable for the lack of help they offered. I ended up having to drive down to San Diego and found a brilliant ministry called Rebuilt Ruins Ministry, which I thank God for. If anyone needs deliverance or is having depression, please do not go to or call this church. You won't receive the help you need. I also do not feel that the worship is spirit filled, so if you're looking for an awesome worship experience I would not come here for that either. I will say they have a good Life Recovery Group held on Thursdays at 6:30PM.

Pastor Hal went into great depth using the Bible and has an easy way of explaining things. He interacts with the congregation while preaching and holds your attention throughout. There appear to be many different activities the church does together during the week. Newcomers are warmly welcomed and given a gift. The pastor greets people at the door with a warm welcome. I'm new to the area and have visited a few churches. He's the only one I've seen do this and it was nice. Praise and Worship was powerful and beautiful. What I didn't like...Pastor Hal made a derogatory comment about people being fat and "from the looks of it, some of you need weight watchers." I was shocked! I couldn't believe he would say such an unkind thing. Comments like that can be incredibly harmful and hurtful. As someone who's battled an eating disorder I found it mean. I tried to take my concerns to him personally but was told he doesn't accept calls. I had to email. This proved to be futile as he stood his ground, further trying to support his position. At no time did he apologize for his unkind words. Barring the 'you're all fat' comments, I would have loved to attend again. However, I can't support FATISM. I don't tolerate isms from anyone. Jesus loves all people whether they be fat or not. Pastor Hal just hasn't received that message yet. This is an 99.999% white church. My family did not feel comfortable visiting as no one looks like them. If you're Beautifully Black you won't find anyone who looks like you. Southern California has the highest population of Deaf and HOH people in the country yet New Song does not have sign language interpreters. I don't recommend this church unless you're very, very thin and white.

I am continuing along but this is truly my last comment…read more While listening on their website to Ephesians Chapter 1 . The pastor said do not draw attention to yourself since 2023 when I had my revelation I started wearing tee shirts with scriptures on it . I just want the world to know Jesus that is my intention and I do my prayer walk wearing these tee shirts . Mitch Glaser In 2024 when he visited Shuvah Ysreal that's their congregation in Irvine. He asked us to wear their tee shirts with Isaiah 53 since the Talmud remove that chapter of Isaiah that one of the scriptures that speaks of the coming of the messiah. I understand you all are doing " the way" But it's okay if it is something you all approved but not okay if you have a revelation and do something I am thinking well that's just not me . I truly do not belong there nor do i fit in. I truly thank Teresa she actually blessed me . I went on their summer hikes in 2023 wearing one of my tee shirts and nobody talked to me . It's so weird I hiked and nobody they were just into themselves . I don't have to try to fit in because I am already accepted and loved immensely by my Lord and savior . Imagine in February of 2024 . My Pastor Tim Delina, He is the senior pastor at Times Square Church was standing on the pulpit of Maranatha Chapel preaching and so was the whole group . That's how much the Lord loves me and every year they come out here now for a week and I am invited. We have a song we sing at TSC " Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom " nearly every service we sing it . I thank Jesus for technology because I can watch their service . It's tow and half hours long. It starts with prayer then worship is one hour and preaching is an hour and I just love it . I truly love my Jesus and truly love my church . I would remember where I used to stand and sit , i love the worship so vibrant and alive with impromtu prayer while singing and varied races singing together . It must be what heaven looks like . Today we are starting our three days of prayer and fasting and we will be praying for Isreal with Solu Isreal doing worship . Last year Solu Isreal did a night or worship and 34 countries tuned in and the you tube debuted at 14K vies presently it's over 26K . I personally did more then 100 views . It was amazing .They have home groups and baptism online. It's great They stand for the widows, orphans, oppressed and immigrant. Christianity for me is them . it's the whole package, love, acceptance, family and wherever you go you can tune in worship my neighbors hear me singing and worshipping with them joyfully. I leave you all with this quote from Roy T Bennett. " Shine with the Light of your own flame, and the world will glow differently" I know, when I wear my scripture based Tee shirts I get a lot of thumbs up and many young adults come up to me with a smile. I know it spoke to them and encourage them . A lady shopping in Walmart spent an hour chatting with me on the scripture while I was doing my shopping . it's my way of being so thankful for my salvation . The Lord saved me and brought me to this country to learn of Him . He saved me from being a Brahma Kumaris from the Brahma Kumaris world Spiritual University. A peace organization affiliated with the UN. I was born into a Hindu home but became a Brahmin with them at age 18 . Due to my knowledge of their scriptures . I have loved God and served Him my entire life and I am so happy to finally know the One, True Living God. His name is Jesus . He is Lord of all lords . King of all kings and God of all gods. Amen! and I know Him and He loves me dearly as the late Pastor William Carol always used to say the church is Jesus bride but no pastor or any congregant didn't die on the cross for you but Jesus did. I am so blessed and so loved that Jesus sent Pastor Tim Delina all the way from NY and plant him at Maranatha Chapel stage . Yep Jesus would leave the 99 to save the one and they treated me to a very nice dinner. I am good and okay . Accepted, Loved and Cherished and belong to The Lord's forever family Amen! It's all good no hard feelings, Please enjoy the pink lemon tree when it started bearing . It's from the Lord so say thank you for having me over at your home at the home group.
