Oak Park Christian Center - Pleasant Hill (CA)

5 /5 Kamaya princess Cortijo-Barrera: I love this church! Everyone is Kind and accepting, I love the pastors. I definitely recommend this church to someone fully committed to God or wants to be!

5 /5 Victoria Portanier, MFT: My review much to my chagrin is relatively overdue . This church is the real deal with such transparency stemming from experienced pastoral leadership who are kind to others and infuse love, support and a nonjudgmental approach to anyone who walks through the door. I feel safe in this church and believe that the preaching derives from solid doctrine. The pastoral staff shares the gospel of Jesus Christ in a way that is applicable to every day life and unapologetically. My life focus and thought process has been entirely changed as a result of attending this church. I hold myself more accountable with my sinful nature , I speak positivity into the lives of others and I desire and feel motivated to walk closer to God. You have to remember that humans are broken and we are not meant to do life alone. You will never find a perfect church where all the boxes are checked. You can sense this is a no sugar coated zone . Pastor Sean and Leslie serve God and preach the gospel with the right motive, have gigantic hearts and a bold mindset that is full of contagious joy. There are programs for most age ranges and the energy at their events are dynamic and centered around bringing glory to God. Obviously I am so biased about this church because there has been a total life transformation in my life and I used to have internal belief systems that were not working for me or bringing glory to God.

5 /5 John Hodges: Pastor Bill Mathews is very kind, humble and loving. I’ve attended his church for 15 years now. I also am a faithful giver each week. However I Support missions in another church, which Pastor is my dear friend. Every month I give also to missions and it’s more than several hundred each month. Pastor Bill Mathews knows about it and has never once asked me to change where my missions funds go. The statement that was made about him “he wants your money” is completely in accurate. You only need to meet him and get to know him to see that his integrity and passion for God is authentic. You only need to see the car he drives to know that he is anything but money hungry. It’s obvious that the individual who wrote that statement is the one who is money hungry and an angry person. We all have things about us that we need to surrender to Christ. My hope is that the person who wrote that, can experience the Love and wonderful grace that Jesus freely offers. And can come to know Pastor Mathews personally.
