It is our belief that the Lord is honored by the church that honors His Word." Our very first visit, we were graciously greeted by the Pastor Amos and multiple church members, making us instantly feel welcomed and at home. The worship time and verse by verse teachings have made a dramatic difference in our understanding and applying Scripture. The frequent fellowship opportunities and bible studies have greatly impacted my walk with the Lord. If you want an intimate relationship with Christ, OC Bible Church is where you will find it, surrounded by members with the same conviction.

It's impossible to express concisely what this church has meant to me and my wife, having attended…read morefor 2 years now. But if I could choose five prominent characteristics to scratch the surface, they would be Bible, Leadership, Community, Humility, Christ-like love. From the very first 10 min, the first two characteristics were undeniable. Not only were the sermons thoroughly exposited, but even the worship time was peppered, devoted to the public reading of Scripture, Old Testament and New, and indiscriminate of a single verse or chapter. Next, the pastor came right out and addressed the situation with masks, etc. (this was 2021). He calmly, but clearly, stated the leadership's thought process of how they'll be interacting with public policy, and then extended welcome for each of us to act on our own convictions. Mask or not, our only objective here is to worship our Lord. That was so freeing in such a tense time! My wife and I have grown so much in our relationships with God - learning about and experiencing Him for who He is, not who we want Him to be. This is a small church, but that means everyone is here because they WANT to be. There's no show, not a ton of structured programs, just real life.

It is the most delicious honey that I've ever found! I get the wildflower with the honeycomb inside, and by extra bottles to give as gifts. They sell the honey in their store, and the proceeds help support the monastery. Today, while purchasing honey, we had a Swami teach us about "Chaitanya". We learned that Sanskrit means "consciousness," "awareness," or "life force." It can also mean "energy," "enthusiasm," or "intelligence". It was a beautiful ride down living Oak Canyon road. There is a beautiful hiking trail in this area as well. Feeling very fortunate that we have so much stuff to do, and learn about here in Orange County!

It is part of the PCA denomination, but the worship format is contemporary. Sermons are Biblically based, and both pastors are excellent speakers. When I first moved back to Irvine, my family and I were expecting to have a difficult time finding a church that we could easily plug into. However, God led us here very quickly, and the church and its members have been a huge blessing. Many things are great about the church, but one standout has been how welcoming the pastors and congregation are to people from diverse walks of life.

It's such a beautiful sound that touches your soul and grabs your heart. Even if you're a non believer, one would appreciate the beauty. Location is very convenient (off 5 fwy)! So happy there's this beautiful masjid here in Irvine. I was a bit weary of the parking, especially coming for Tarawih prayer. I got in a lil after 8 & there was still lots of parking! I ended up parking in the New Horizons School parking lot. The street parking was full. I am not sure how full the actual parking was in the lot of the masjid. By the entrance there were workers directing people in where to park. The atmosphere is just lovely. The interior feels very very clean & I loved how the sisters area is a mezzanine, & not just a separate room completely blocked off (if you have been to other masjids you know what I'm talking about lol). It was a bit hot in there, which is probably my only complaint. The speakers here were so good & the sound was on point. The way it echoes throughout the masjid is just heartwarming! I love going here so far, the recitation is just amazing. Can't wait to come back again!

I've attend FFC for 26 of the 27 years of my life, and it has ultimately shaped me into the Christian I am today. The greatest things I've learned from Pastor Mike, Beth, and all the extraordinary leaders/volunteers at this church is how to know God, enjoy Him all the days of my life, and how to love others because He first loved me. And because of Pastor Mike's teachings on faith and uncompromising boldness, I confidently walk with Christ unashamed of His gospel. I'm grateful that God has planted me here, because He knew I needed a place that would challenge me to grow.
