I will definitely come back.

WOW This man who hears Pastor is greedy needs this church. I've attended it for a while now…read more Sometimes I wonder how the pastor knows just what I need. He is so anointed from God and such a true faithful man. He speaks in a way that he's not over anyone's head. God bless you Pasto Brian. I will be praying this John person gets to attend our church and see how God works. I will pray God will bless him as he has blessed you. We all need the Lord in our lives. Your preaching helps keep me close to God and teaches me some understanding I sometimes miss.

A Warning to Parents and Families…read more I was a part of this church since 2013 and served in leadership for seven years, so I speak from firsthand experience when I say: stay away. For a long time, I didn't see the truth behind the polished image. But having been on the inside of their leadership structure, I have seen them for who they really are. Behind closed doors, they are not genuine. Worse, they have a history of hidden serious allegations going back approximately 20 years. No matter how many policies and procedures they claim to have in place, children are not safe here or at their Porterville campus. If anything happens to your child, you may never even know. Mandated reporting is routinely ignored because leadership acts as though they are above the law and can do whatever they want. They preach about "excellence," but it is a front. At their core, they are money-hungry preachers who use cunning manipulation to look and sound righteous, just like wolves in sheep's clothing. RUN - Your Children Are At Risk!

I started attending this church about 2 years ago off and on due to my erratic work schedule…read more Finally about a year ago my schedule changed so I could attend church regularly now. The first thing I noticed is everyone are just regular people trying to serve God the best way they can. Every service I attend people great me, and ask me how I am doing. I finally decided to look into becoming a church member. They offer a class on membership that explains what the church is about. The in depth doctrines of the Church, and who is in charge. I also wanted to be baptized, and they also offer a class class on baptism. I never been happier since I found this Church. I am going to support this church with everything I have, until Jesus takes me home.
