I am moving this week and they have gone out of their way to see if there is anything I need. The message was really good! It really encouraged me. This place has a way of truly lifting your spirits. The worship team was very talented, and I loved how they had a fresh word from God to give. Last year, and a bit of this year was rough... but wow did God bring me through it! I wanted to find a place where I could just go listen to the word, and thank Him for all he's done for me. I haven't had a church family in some time, and I know this is the right place for me. These people are ALL truly alive! You can see it in their faces. If you're not a Christian, don't like waking up early, and or don't like churchy people...just try this place. All I can say is I came in one way, and I left with joy in my heart and perfect peace of mind. It's Tuesday, and I am counting the days until I go back again :)

I forced myself to go here this morning and I was pleasantly surprised by my visit. Note: I walked out of the last church I visited after 5 minutes. I have criteria that I look for in a church, such as: *good lighting - check, I was impressed with the excellent interior and natural lighting from clerestory *no stupid, creepy religious outfit or robe on pastor - check *pastor looks normal and doesn't feel reptilian - check *pastor doesn't have a used car salesman mentality - check *pastor doesn't ramble on about stupid things his kids did - check *church is not in an office building, warehouse or school - check *good music - check *members aren't a bunch of controlling, old people - check *people are friendly - check *no talk about politics - check So far, this place is good. Hopefully it continues that way.

I love Living Waters Church!…read more Pastor Brett Peterson is truly a great shepherd. Not only does he teach the word of God in an unadulterated fashion, he spends time with his flock and ministers to them. He gives back to the community as a fire chaplain for OCFA, and also ministers to people in their last moments of life, as a hospice Chaplain. Pastor Brett has poured into my life many times as when I call him for counsel and advice. He makes himself available at all hours and is always happy to take my call. His sermons are well planned out, yet yielded to the Holy Spirit's guidance. He is led by the Lord and obediently follows His voice. He's definitely not your average pastor. Although he preaches the Bible with love and compassion, he has no problem confronting false doctrine... but he does so with the love of the Lord, yet firm. If you're looking for a church with a shepherding pastor, and the heart of Christ, look no further....you've found the right place!

He stayed with us and talked about our Lord and heaven while we waited six hours for the coroner. Even though this was the second time we had lost a son, as he spoke we were filled with a peace that can only come from God. The bible speaks of this. My husband and I had been raised in a large structured religion where we never learned how to read the bible. We didn't even own one. We started attending Living Water Community Church the following week. We were surrounded by the kindest, most loving and supportive group of people we had ever known! We have been attending this church ever since. We have been fed every week with the word of God straight from the bible. ( HIS blueprint for our lives!!!) We have been so blessed by this wonderful small church over the years. I liken it to wearing my shoes on the right feet for the first time in my life!!!

I love Mariners Church!…read more We started attended during Covid times when in our immediate area of South OC didn't feel comfortable with attending church in person. I really appreciate the diversity at Mariners, the large campus with different areas you can choose to worship indoors or outdoors. I love that during each holiday they have different photo ops areas and events to enjoy after Saturday night service. They have Saturday 4pm, 5:30pm service and Sundays 8:30am, 10am, 11:30am. My 11 yo just got baptized at Mariners through his own wishes this past summer! My 16 yo has been attending here with his friends over the past years and has volunteered in the kids ministry this past year. I love that both my boys are growing with different leaders they are exposed to. What I love most is personally is the amazing worship sessions inside the chapel as the acoustics are incredible. I love the worship nights they host and how they have different ministry's for everyone. Lastly, I like that I don't feel obligated to connect with people. People are definitely friendship and welcoming but not pushy. I love pastor Eric's messages, they are personable and relatable to me. This is the most beautiful church I have ever been to.

The pastors are so big on being deeply rooted in the word and growing in your spiritual walk. They are amazing spiritual mentors to me. I moved to Nevada 2 years ago and I still attend church online because of how much I feel included in this church family. I also attend the women's Bible study via zoom. Every church member makes you feel welcome and included. I miss not being able to attend this church in person but I'm so grateful that I'm still able to be apart of this church family. I highly recommend this church to anyone who is looking to grow spiritually and to be apart of such an amazing ministry!

I can't think of a better place to develop an authentic faith in Jesus.
