I had never set foot in this Church but have driven countless times weekly. Parking was not sweat and there were plenty of signs that directed voters towards the right place. Voting was held in a medium community room. Very pleasant greeters were at the door and welcomed me. I was pointed to the correct table and was registered quickly! I was in and out within 5 - 8 minutes. There were no lines or trouble at all! After wards, A gentleman thanked me for voting and I went on my way. With the 2012 elections being my second experience to vote, I do not mind having Harbor Community Church of God being my new voting location.

The pastor was incredibly nice and very interested in my story as to what brought me to the church. A really nice usher walked me to my seat. She prayed over me. It was an incredibly beautiful prayer. The music was so well done. I knew all the songs and it made me feel happy that I had chosen this church. The pastor preached right from the Bible he was great. When the service was over,again someone met me as I was walking out and invited me over to the information booth. I look forward to going back. They have many service options and are just really nice people. It gets a 10 for my rating one being the lowest 10 being the highest.

There is a 9:15am class on Sunday where you can learn more about what the church believes and the Cardinal doctrine. If you do miss Sunday you can watch live from their Instagram or Facebook @thewaythechurch It isn't a all day church. Sunday's from 9:50am-11:30am. I do enjoy attending this church because I see many different age groups so you don't feel out of place.

THIS CHURCH SAVED MY LIFE…read more Growing up, I'd go to this church with my family on special occasions, and honestly, I'd dread it and never really pay attention. When Pastor Chet started, everything changed. His energy, humor, and the way he shared God's message made it impossible for my mind to drift elsewhere. Five years ago, I went through the darkest chapter of my life. I was struggling with ongoing depression, crippling anxiety, and constant nightmares. During one service, my anxiety was overwhelming, so I closed my eyes and prayed for peace. That happened to be the day Pastor Chet invited anyone who wanted to surrender their life to Jesus to come to the front for prayer. What I experienced during that prayer is something that's hard to put into words, but it's what made me certain that Jesus is real. Not long after, I got baptized. My nightmares disappeared, my relationships began to heal, and the darkness and fear that had weighed so heavily on me no longer had the same hold on my life. I'll never be able to fully express how grateful I am for this church and for everything God has done in my life. Forever thankful.

I feel most churches are a 2 or 3 star experience the first time you go, so I would say Calvary…read moreLife did better than average. I watched about 3 sermons online about Galatians and went to visit Sunday at 8:30. It was easy to get in and we were greeted and ushered. Worship was fine but I didn't know the songs so I spent a lot of time reading the lyrics. The sermon is the most important part of a church service to me, and I found the pastor's sermon on Judging not Lest ye be Judged to be subtle and good. I had many questions, because in that same sermon he told the congregation not to model ourselves after hollywood marriages, that children shouldn't be asked what they want to eat for dinner at the grocery store (rather the parent should lead), and talked about not throwing your pearls before swine, so discernment and judgment ate different. Overall an interesting topic! Left me with a lot of questions though. I think a church can never be 4 or 5 stars until it's very clear how to plug in to activities and it's clear that new attendees are welcome. The announcements section that Sunday didn't have an invitation that I remember to plug into any new attendee events. A simple "raise your hand if this is your first time here" or something like that would be recommendable in my opinion. Looking forward to coming back! Thank you for opening your doors to the community! I like that there is a meeting at The Enclave as well. I think moving the Food Truck Fellowship event from Calvary Life to The Enclave might help bring in new attendees.

This is a subministry of the church called Podowon Baptist Church. It has been located in Carson…read moresince 2008. The Korean Ministry is awesome. The Senior Pastor and Reverend is a really good man. If you want to know how The Branch is, here is my take. The people are good folks. Whether they truly love God or not, is a mystery to me. Because they are a church, my only assumption that I can make is that they do. The worship is okay. Its a simple guitar, bass, and drums. The worship leader Kris, is a great singer. The female lead, Becky is also a phenomenal singer. The service is held in a sanctuary that is lovely. Its pretty spacious and can hold over 250 seats, though the ministry has around about 20-25 people occupying it. The crowd is a mix of college students mixed with adults in their thirties with kids. One thing I love are the Branch kids. They are all awesome and super cool. The Pastor for the ministry is serviceable. Nothing great. Nothing terrible. Parking in the parking lot can be kinda limited but there are plenty of street parking. I wouldn't recommend going to this church, but to each their own.

We've gone through many changes, but one thing always remains-- God and His faithfulness. Another thing that's been pretty constant is our house church system.

I've been coming to Saddleback since it's formation down in Lake Forest many, many years ago…read more Having moved to the South Bay, I was eager for a local church to call home and was oh-so-relieved when Saddleback came to the South Bay! The church family is fantastic, people are incredibly friendly and the messages relevant. Some have commented about it being weird that the sermon is broadcast on a screen and that can be done at home and while technically true, you definitely do not get the sense of community that you do when visiting a campus... and especially this campus. I've never been to another place where one feels so wanted and welcome, as here. The pastoral staff is fantastic, the worship is great, the other members are welcoming -- it's just a great place to be. If you're even considering the notion of coming to church, you'll feel welcome here. We're proud to express that we don't have it all together and that we're all still figuring things out. While watching the sermon on the screen may not be traditional, you'll quickly look past that once you realize that it's the relationships which will draw you back. We hope to see you there - you are welcome!
