Love this church! God moves in everyone's' life and his presence dwells here. A Holy Spirit filled church seeking God in spirit and truth.

Ill start with the morning I arrived at Freedomhouse for the first time. I was greeted by a woman who was very nice who handed me a pamphlet and a card that prompted me multiple ways to give. Not only that but to write my credit card # on the card which is crazy in my opinion. You say you want your church to feel like a safe place but having my credit card # on a piece of paper is wild to me, no matter how much you trust your employees. These types of handouts SHOULD NOT be given to newcomers! Have them pick one up if they want to and not forced to have one. Now the service. The worship team was great and I truly felt the love of Jesus in the room as they sang songs. However, things quickly took a turn when the pastor came out and preached his message. I felt like 90% of the service was about giving and 10% was about the actual Word. He started by explaining the new construction area and what it would look like and how it would work. He proceeded to show a 6-8 minute video of him just rambling on screen about what their plans were, I honestly was so bored and tuned out immediately. The actual message was great and it was something I needed to hear, but the problem was it felt rushed and like a second thought because of how much the pastor was talking about giving and tithes. In my honest opinion, this entire "Big Give Sunday" service that I stumbled upon as a newcomer should not be a Sunday service and if the church wants to raise money for their upcoming projects then make this "movement" a fundraiser seperate from Sunday service. I will not be coming back. read more

This is the Best church I've been too , I call this Home , Thank you Pastors for you genuine love for the people .

This is the most inconsiderate rude church I have ever come across! They are super loud, mostly everything is done outdoors and they think that they can just take over the neighborhood like the OC Fair! The pastors do nothing about it and they don't care because they've been doing this for 8 to 10 years! They blast music and not to mention they are on megaphones! It's unnecessary and it's disrupting the neighborhood and they don't give a crap! I cannot believe the city allows this! Disturbing. Someone's peace is absolutely not of God! read more

TRANSPARENCY is a must...so I'll just open with a Testimony...I remember when I first found Jesus Christ and the first friend I made through the Holy Spirit was a friend named Dominic! He was asking for money outside of the Walmart cross streets Barranca and Von Karman...It was for "trade school" but I befriended this gentleman through the Holy Spirit and on the car ride home I learned he used that money to pay for a hotel that his wife and newborn child stayed in also...I had such supernatural love for my Brother and his family and I know God used him to show me money isn't everything...God used me to help him get back home in the course of like a year and a half...The spiritual growth I experienced by unconditionally loving this Man for God has shown me that God is the provider and He wants us to mirror Christ whenever we get over ourselves! Giving is essential for spiritual growth, because it teaches you to have faith in what God is doing not what people are up to...giving like this will only make God proud of you, because you do it sincerely and wholeheartedly this is how we learn to love others like Christ and I thank Jesus for Dominic for using him to teach me this...As Jesus Christ followers I say forgiveness and Grace must be given to the Body of Christ at all times, because we aren't in Heaven yet and you cannot expect every Church to be perfect...We are human it's why Jesus Christ suffered and is also why he is presently ruling as King of Heaven...I know where my Pastors are coming from regarding tithe and cheerful giving...they are just very passionate on growing Gods Kingdom in The O.C because how much of a influence the Area holds FOR THE LORD!!! I've been coming to this Church since 2022 and I've seen Men get delivered from confusion with their sex...I've had my lower back healed through corporate prayer...I have seen Men delivered from past trauma and Jesus Christ redeeming there present gifting them a healthy future...I've seen and been apart of The Freedom in this house and I thank God for choosing The Silva Family and for the obedience The Silva Family has towards The Lord!!! I love this house it'll stretch you and strengthen your cause for Christ and we welcome you fam!!!!With The Love of Jesus I say these things Amen!!! ""If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins." Matthew 6:14-15 NLT read more

Love this Church! My son and I have been coming here for almost a year and we feel very blessed! Love all that is happening in this church and how they give back to the community read more

It's super welcoming! I arrived and was received with a warm welcome. They speak the word of God. It's not like other churches. This church is based on following Christ! Not based on religion. read more

I am so grateful I was invited to Freedom House OC! Everyone is so welcoming and friendly. It's well organized from parking to getting seated to the worship and the sermon. This church gets filled every service so my husband and I love to arrive early to get seats in the front! Pastor Josiah does a phenomenal job at delivering the word. He breaks it down in a modern way that I can relate to which has been so helpful and life changing for my husband and I. Families definitely get saved and restored thanks to FreedomHouse OC. My marriage is a testimony! To God be the glory! read more

Freedomhouse Church - Churches Near Me - Fullerton, California

When you walk in the place is pitch dark. Black walls, black stage. I don't associate God with darkness but with light, so this seems like a very imitate-the-world choice. I don't expect pews and stained glass windows, but it's so dark you cannot see the people. I thought church was supposed to be about the people? Not about creating a club atmosphere. But the most offensive part of the service is how LOUD the music is. I have a decibel meter app on my phone and the music is 15 minutes at between 80 and 90 decibels. Exposure to this much LOUD MUSIC over three or four Sundays will cause permanent hearing damage. As for the teaching, the service I attended was the pastor winging it - spewing out one Bible verse after another. It was like he was just free-styling and there was no thesis to his teaching that day. He was, of course, eager to share that he's gong to get an even bigger stage soon - the new church in Anaheim. You are building him a new church. I wonder if it will also be a black pit that makes people deaf? Maybe we don't need our hearing in heaven, but we do still need it here. I left not understanding why so many people attend this church. read more

Miss high school? Come to freedomhouse. Cliques, mean girls, "cool" kids who look through you like you don't exist, and constant bouncing from partner to partner. If you're not family or close friends with those who have been going for a while, you're just a donation to them. Grifters with the gift of requesting tithes is what you'll encounter here. What kind of pastors need bodyguards? The kind more concerned with looking like untouchable celebrities. The people at this church represent everything wrong with faux religious businesses. read more

For my people with Discernment you Will see this ,This church is a beauty To the eye nice service Great Word ,Worship team is talented but The fruit is not there ,You see pastor idolizing ,Social Media Is big here u see it in the restrooms to.This place is missing the fellowship and community that makes people feel welcomed and everyone feels gossipy especially the women ,I've gone here a couple times to give it a shot but my discernment keeps going off ,I liked the service part but everything that is polished " is not of the right fruit ,I feel like it's all groupy and they are just there to show "we are part of the church " I feel the spirit of of a bunch of jezebels we Need A church that brings Community that shows the love of Jesus but also disciples Us and corrects us ,And HEALS OUT OF HEART !!! this is not the place tho it may look like a cool service it's all for the social platform ,aka the merch the coffee shop the perfect lights ,but there's no seating in lobby and when I've gone the lobby with chairs (from coffee shop are packed and no one offers chairs (I was pregnant and had a toddler I was in so much pain and they would just stare at me ,and this was a lot of times ,The women's group is all for "gram " .Plus there is no parkingggggg ! I never feel the presence of God Here I know I'm not crazy I've invited friends here they all felt the same to ,It could be misjudgment they could be cool people when u get to know them but u definitely don't feel it right away it would feel super fake .AND Matthew 6 "We will know them by their fruit " Worship team sounds amazing but one of the lead singers (girl with glasses ) has a mugging face idk I don't feel comfortable here just feels like it's all for likes and views .To my fellow new believers THERE are so many great churches out there I would recommend "My sanctuary Church " it's sooo amazing get connected get loved on to read more

I was so excited to be part of a church community especially starting my new journey.. I was expecting to be moved or soul felt on my first visit but instead it was just to make contributions to the church and that then god would help me. I decided to give them a second chance, I also decided to leave my 2 year old in the childcare they provide. She literally got hands feet and mouth disease, 103 fever and couldn't even open her mouth or eat !! read more

POWERFUL , i love this church and everyone is very welcoming !!!! praise the Lord , this church is family

Freedomhouse changed my life. I was looking for a church that spoke the word in 2020 and came across Freedomhouse church and I have not since looked back. I have been planted at this church and have been flourishing the last couple of years. This is home, I am grateful for our pastors who lead here and grateful I get to be a part of a big move of God read more

All this pastor wants us money. Spends too much time on how we should be giving of our finances. He had the nerve to tell the congregation that we should dip into our 401ks if we really love God! He hypes up the people as if it's a sports event, then once he gets everyone emotionally motivated he kicks in the money speech. The message was all about him, a small verse that he read and the rest was his life. The majority here are 20 and early 30s. I highly discourage anyone to attend this church. This man is only after your money read more

Excellent church, however I would like more focus and explaination on the actual word . The Rapture vs The Second Coming. Christianianity is not a reglion, it's way of life. A relationship with the father and son and holy spirit .To those that complain about the noise, answer me honestly, if worship music bothers you, does the train also bother you? read more

Please review others comments on the finances . I have been to a few services and the most of the time was talked about money and the new Walmart building. Definitely a business model and I would question the stream line of finances. My family member goes to church for healing and is in a vulnerable state and the church has them feel obligated to dip into their finances from disability. I been to other churches where finances are not the main topic and they are just doing fine. read more

Best church ever very welcoming and prays for all the people needed and for anything the alive summer camp is very fun I love this church.

Highly recommend this church if your looking to be part of a family , if you want the presence of the lord. I clever coming to this church for years and I've been saved and without this church I wouldn't know what to do !! PAstors are all great !! Thank you freedomhouse. read more

Freedomhouse Church - Pastor Josiah - Churches Near Me - Fullerton, California

I pray for you all to have discernment. The reviews do not lie. I urge all of you to do your research on the church, as well your leaders. See where your tithes really go. The sermon from Josiah says it all. Who asks for kids to offer with their piggy banks? You don't have anymore money in your bank account? No worries, you can give them cryptocurrency , stocks, etc. There are pastors that can speak with charm. Don't be fooled. Sales people are the sweetest talkers, but not always an walker. I've been going to church all of my life. I've also overseen multiple businesses. I know a business when I see one. I will leave the rest for you to dig. God brings everything to light. Reveals all out of the dark. Striking down those who are using Jesus as their own gains. read more

I always feel welcomed! Love that it's dark, feels more private. They have people who will help you find parking, which is definitely a plus! read more

Very stingy. This church does not welcome people, in fact they turn them away. Terrible experience, Jesus would not approve of this.

Terrible place. I can't even refer to it as a church. Walls are black, chairs are black, my spirit felt so uneasy in there. Even their worship is dark as night. The pastor is full of himself and yells to hype people up. So sad on how many people are being mislead by this place. I've read other reviews that speak on how horrible they are as neighbors. Loud and inconsiderate. Just sad to see places like this can play church and mislead so many. I was a visitor. Will never return again. read more

Amazing loving church. No pressure to join or do anything but grow with God . Pastor teaches the word in detail. House full of authentic people and filled with the word read more

Overall this is a Good Church! Love worship!!! Love the prayer partners! And how their theme is for reaching young adults, young people since they are the future of the church! During worship they have flashing lights, I love it but I know some are sensitive to that. So be aware of that before attending. Overall Most are friendly BUT A lot of the people here have a lot of improving to do in the girls Restroom girls look at me up and down , roll their eyes at me and laugh at me. Idk why When it comes to being friendly and making ALL people feel WELCOME it needs improving. But's that's what church is for right ? To improve our fleas and brokenness, I don't go for the people I go for the encounter with God & I consistently pray for the improvement of the church and volunteers. Their is a group of volunteers who are nice! The director of kids is so friendly maybe she should give classes to most of the volunteers on how to be nice to others. Kids classes during services are awesome!! My kids Love it!!! The teachers are super friendly I don't like how one teacher in the 5th grade class talks to the other volunteers she's an older lady with white hair. The young adult pastor, pastor Tom is NOT NICE! He is very rude, he ignores people when they talk to him I understand no one is perfect and we all have our flaws but this guy idk he's rude rude!! And if you do ask him something he goes ughh! Loud!! he only talks to certain people. He can be nice once in a blue moon but only when it's convenient to him. I Don't think he should be a pastor. When he preaches I can't sit for the sermon because he is so fake!! He also flirts with young girls. I have heard him yell at interns & volunteers & give them attitude. He's not good!! This church needs to be more United. Freedom house español is completely different the español pastor is nice!! He talks to everyone after service and prays with you if needed! the volunteers are genuinely friendly! Español campus needs to give pointers to the English team . How are they so different but in the same location? Pastor Luis & pastor grace from español is doing it right!! read more

I had a Devine appointment with Father God today, from the Worship to the Word "Heathy Homes". John 13:34-35. A new command I give you, From beginning to end meeting Emily and Maggie. How I was filled Holy Spirit filled Breakthrough. Thank you Jesus. Pastor Josiah surely God's anointing is upon you and your church. I look forward to meeting you. read more

Don't come here, A lot of gossip amongst each other & are very clicky. They are in the middle of buying a new building and it's all about money. Never seen the main pastors mingling with their congregation but want to ask people to take money out of their 401k read more

We love Freedomhouse! If you love the word of God, real talk preaching, authentic leaders who love God and want to do great for the community, Freedomhouse is for you. read more

Love the community at this church. We always feel at home. Everyone is so welcoming and God definitely loves in this church.

Love the heart the Pastors have to win souls for Jesus! Visit if you are in the area and you will walk away with a renewed mind. #JesusLovesYou read more

I've been coming to freedomhouse since 2013. In fact, I left a yelp review after a couple visits. I had a positive experience and remember how I was going through some pretty serious life issues. In short, I was at a low in my life. Today, more than 4 years later, I'm grateful and happy to say this place has helped me and my family so much. We have grown closer to each other and in our faith. What astounds me the most that this church is only 7 years old and has been operating as a "mobile" church since then. The challenges of that alone has not stopped the manner in which freedomhouse engages church goers and it's Community that surrounds it. One of the most useful ways you can get to know more about freedomhouse is by going to "starting pointe" .. that's where I was able to get a good picture of where freedomhouse came from, how it started and where it's going. Most importantly, you'll walk out encouraged and strengthened in your faith. Check it out:) read more

Where to start... I'll make a pros & cons list for clarity. Pros: - Kid leading worship has a beautiful voice. You are a star kiddo! - I think this kind of church might work for young adults like teens and early 20's. - Pastor has some jokes. General Observation: - If social media was a church this would be it! Lol you walk in volunteers look like they are ready to hit the club!Which to each their own, y'all look beautiful, just weird to see that in church ya know? Their announcements are done to some sort of like EDM music?! lol which is soo weird but y'all do whatever works for y'all! Also the videographers & photographer are a bit excessive in my opinion. The way they angle the church to be portrayed to be so much bigger on camera weeeiirrd... but people will do that on social media, so I guess it's fitting?? - Doesn't really look like a family type of church mostly looks like it's for young adults. Cons: - Yes the pastor absolutely stresses the point of giving money to an annoying extreme! I go to my friends churches quite often, most of the time pastors will emphasize that if it is not a church you call home & are just visiting for the first time there is no need to give. This guy on the other hand... well he is VERY eager to ask for your money. Which would be fine, if it looked like the church was there to serve, but man is this the most ostentatious pastor/wife duo I have ever seen. Point being wouldn't doubt that money is lining Pastor Josiah's skinny jeans. Lol they're really tight bro, but YOU DO YOU BOO! - Pastor yells A LOT! & like for no good reason. He also loves to tell the people in the audience what to do (because it absolutely feels like a performance) which makes it feel really disingenuous, like If i lift my hands in praise it should be because i feel like it not because I'm being yelled at to. Also made me super nervous like I never knew when he was going to yell next. He also tells you what to pray about word for word again, pero lyke why? Message for me was lost in all the dramatics. (Might work for others! A lot of people in the crowd seemed to enjoy it, so again, it's not for me but might be for you?!) In conclusion, in conclusion! lol this is obviously not for me, I will however watch your worship team online because boy does that guy have an amazing voice! I wish you all the best & that y'all endeavors are in the end to glorify God & serve others. read more

The people who go to this church are incredibly inconsiderate to the neighborhood around it. People drive like idiots, and the events constantly create high volumes of traffic that inconvenience us. I wish this church did more to give back the community and respected our neighborhood more. I've lived on Williamson for 21 years and honestly miss when this place was a Goodwill-- I wouldn't have a problem with this place if they advised their attendees to respect the people who live here. Hopefully the owners/pastors at this church think about how exactly they can give back to the neighborhood that tolerates the traffic, disrespectful churchgoers, and everything in between. read more

I wouldn't be who I am today if it wasn't for this church. I've had the privilege of being apart of the in's and out's of Freedomhouse for over 5 years and I've also had the honor of assisting the church with being mobile, and impacting the cities of Brea, La Habra and Fullerton (there are several more cities to cite here); FH never leaves an opportunity to take the time to reach one soul to hear the true Gospel. Before I got saved, I was addict, a drug dealer, gang affiliate, a convicted felon, a thief, internally created financial ruin for my future life, was suicidal for years, and was on the verge of taking my life again. After I got saved and received Jesus in my heart, I jumped in serving several ministries, became an intern, became a Connect Group host, became a Bible college student, part of my record got expunged, became a leader in a ministry and met my wife in that ministry, was married by Pastor Josiah, and found my calling in ministry. I found my purpose as one of God's children and I would not be breathing if it wasn't for Freedomhouse. Do not pay any attention to any negative reports. They are not only slanderous but present false information to bear opposition to God's will. Read Acts 5:38-39 NLT : "So my advice is, leave these men alone. Let them go. If they are planning and doing these things merely on their own, it will soon be overthrown. But if it is from God, you will not be able to overthrow them. You may even find yourselves fighting against God!" If my life could turn a 180° by sheer obedience and submission to God placement of the leaders in my life, I know He can do the same, if not more for you. This is a Spirit filled church and I am glad to build and plant my family's flag here. read more

Freedom House has been an unexpected but amazing blessing in mine & my son's life!! When God spoke "go to that church you saw on instagram" I never imagined His plan would be so perfectly timed for our lives. I've cried, laughed & received so many revelations since our very 1st service here!! God has not only placed us in an amazing church, but a loving family!! My own breakthrough & deliverance is proof God is within this church!! God's love & the Holy Spirit flows through; Our Pastors, the office team, all ministries who devotedly & lovingly serve week after week! My son has developed such a strong love for God & worship. The loving kidz church teachers are the ones to thank. They've prayed with him, taught him in ways God's word sticks with him!! & he is so excited to join the kids worship team (something he has always wanted to do!) I am so thankful and blown away by our growth & faith since coming to FreedomHouse last summer. We love our church!!! read more

The BEST church ever!!! The vision of the church and what they stand for is beyond this world. Pastor Josiah and Marie Silva are the sweetest pastors. They take time to greet EVERY new person that signs up for a FREE luncheon to get to know them and so they learn more about the church. They do so much for the community and for the church. The women conferences are FIRE! Amazing church to say the least. I LOVEEEEEE FreedomhouseOC! If you're looking for a church to congregate make this your church read more

LOVE FreedomHouse!! My family has experienced life change here. I came as a divorced woman and was seeking God for restoration and greater things from God. I was engaged here, married here and now my husband and I come here as a family. We've experienced such an awesome encounter with God. Anyone who is looking for a great church to call home, I encourage you to come. We have the greatest Kidz ministry, Young Adult Ministry, Women's Ministry and Men's Ministry. read more

I was invited to come to a young adults Alive event in Downtown Fullerton at my college campus. I had so much fun and was in tears with just an overwhelming amount of joy and love. They have an awesome team of volunteers and an amazing team of people who work hard amplify Christ's love. I have personally got to know the leaders and pastors and am just so honored to be apart of this church. They love God and all of God's people so much! My favorite days are those spent at FreedomHouse. FreedomHouse is my family. FreedomHouse is home to me. Pastor Josiah and Pastor Marie are the most thoughtful, gracious, generous people I have ever met. I'm so blessed to have found this church! read more
