Awaken Church | BALBOA CAMPUS - San Diego (CA)

5 /5 Paul Dal: "Fresh. Real. Powerful" , Ive been attending Awaken Church for 4 years now and my life has truly been transformed. Just like those three words, every sermon is fresh, you wont hear the same message preached twice (unless you jump to different campuses) , its real and raw as the speakers are transparent, and powerful because the Word of God is preached and has the power to shift hearts, break bondages, and transform lives. I grew up Catholic and never knew what a true relationship with God looks like. I can keep on, but heres just a gist of it :). If youre on the fence, just go and experience it for yourself, bless!

3 /5 Brian Grandis: I love the music and the TED style talks. The musicals are unbelievable!! Becky and John are hilarious! Also the owners are amazing. I don’t like that SOME of the pastors act like “celebrities” with big egos and feel they should be treated that way when approached. Couldn’t fit in in connect groups and sit alone, was shamed by several pastors when i tried to explain my problem. They did more talking than listening. I still attend and know I’m blessed by God for going.

5 /5 Jordyn Gentry: Been attending for the last 3 years recently got into connect groups and doing all the outside activists. I love that it is a large church in all work the perks of being big but my actual service is small enough to make great connections not to mention the message is always awesome

1 /5 Austin Hilde: Awaken Church is exactly what we don’t need more of. I went there and right away they ask for money. I kid you not when I went there a lady shared her testimony of how her family gave everything they have and they received a 3 bedroom house. Their two bedroom house was not enough and they wanted a three bedroom house here in San Diego and felt that if they gave more donations to the church they would be blessed. Also to mention they are anti LGBT. Jesus would love others no matter what. This place is a joke and Jesus would not like to see these evangelical churches making millions a year while thousands of people here in San Diego are homeless or food insecure.

5 /5 Ash: I use to attend this church and no longer only because it’s a far drive They have great sermons and everyone here makes you feel like family They touch on politics and unfortunately with today’s day and age we have to protect kids . The pastors rotate which I like each one has their own feel and way of preaching I’d recommend this church to anyone
