Resurrection Church - River Campus - Bakersfield (CA)

5 /5 Jacy Stevens: This church helped save my marriage and by doing so kept my family together. They paid my rent, my bills, and my husband’s sober living costs when we were in a very tough situation. My husband has been sober for almost two years now. The community at this church are truly the hands and feet of Jesus. Come check it out and let them love on you.

5 /5 Matthew Bowden: This church has been exactly what I needed! The sermons are practical and Bible-based, addressing real-life issues without getting political. The worship music is excellent, and I appreciate that theres never any pressure to tithe or join groups if youre not ready. Their community outreach programs for kids are wonderful, and the leadership team truly leads by example. I love that they embrace modern technology with their social media and YouTube presence while remaining focused on teaching scripture. Most importantly, everyone is genuinely welcome here. Highly recommend!

5 /5 Jessica Carter: Giving Resurrection Church five stars doesnt feel like enough! From the fantastic staff who make you feel welcome the moment you arrive, to the great childrens and youth programs, (our own kids are involved and thriving in both!) this church really stands out. Our family found Resurrection after needing to leave our home church, and it was exactly the safe, loving place we needed. The care weve received here is genuine. I also appreciate their transparency in the business side of things. For adults, theres no shortage of opportunities to connect and grow through numerous programs, Bible studies, and small groups – youll find it easy to get plugged in. If youre looking for a church where you truly feel loved and cared for, this is it.

5 /5 Herb Watkins Jr: This is a great church. Where people strive to be authentic accountable and vulnerable. Where the word of God is put first and not preferences where we attempt to love one another as Christ has loved us. Where You can come just as you are either new to church Or a long time participant. They have a great children’s program and youth program.

5 /5 David Comelli: As a husband and father, finding a church that truly cares not just about Sunday attendance, but about people’s lives was everything to me. From the moment we stepped into Resurrection Church, we knew this place was different. There’s a sense of genuine care and community here that’s rare. It’s not just friendly faces at the door (though there are plenty) it’s the feeling that people actually know you, see you, and walk with you. The messages aren’t just powerful they’re real. Every week, we hear teachings that speak into what we’re walking through as a family, as parents, as individuals trying to follow Jesus in real life. It’s not hype or performance. It’s Bible based, Spirit led, and deeply personal. I leave each Sunday both encouraged, challenged and equipped to live out my faith. And for our kids? It’s been a game-changer. They’re not just being entertained they’re being discipled, loved, and poured into. Watching them grow in their understanding of who Jesus is has been one of the biggest blessings in our lives. Resurrection Church isn’t just where we go, it’s our home. It’s a place where we’re growing as a family, where we’re surrounded by community, and where we’re constantly being reminded of who we are in Christ and what we’re called to be. If you’re looking for a church that’s real, rooted, and full of life you’ve found it.
