Pacific Baptist Church - Long Beach (CA)

5 /5 King Ram: My family and I attended this church for about a year, and overall, we loved it. I gave my life to the Lord in May of 2014, but I found this church in 2018. It wasn’t until the beginning of 2024 that I committed to attending regularly. I felt God tugging at my heart and calling me to make this commitment, so I started attending, and soon after, my wife and son joined me. This church has a very tight-knit community where most members seem to have grown up together. While that creates a sense of familiarity and unity, it can make it difficult for newcomers to build relationships. There were a few individuals who really went out of their way to connect with us, and one standout was Joseph, the assistant pastor. Joseph genuinely cared about building a relationship with my family and made an effort to make us feel welcome. I also attended Joseph’s class, which was a great opportunity to engage and grow spiritually. However, I had a different experience with one of the leaders. On more than one occasion, I tried to start a conversation, but the leader often walked away or didn’t seem interested in connecting. To clarify, I wasn’t looking for validation from men, but I believe it’s important to build a relationship with those we choose to have a significant influence in our lives. One thing to note is that being a part of this family of believers requires baptism. Despite the challenges in connecting with that leader, I still grew tremendously in my personal relationship with God during my time at this church. A major transformation happened in my life because I really zoned in on what God was calling me to have faith in. To anyone joining this church, or any church for that matter, I encourage you to take your relationship with God seriously. Don’t make it about you and man, but about you and God. Take every step in faith and involve God in all your decision-making. Most importantly, make sure you are spending more time in the Word of God than with anyone or anywhere else to ensure you’re grounded in the truth. This church has been a blessing, and while there’s room for improvement in some areas, I’m thankful for the growth I experienced during my time here. I will definitely be coming back whenever I’m in town.

1 /5 Jonathan Taylor: Gruesomely Graphic . I went yesterday to try this "baptist" "church".. I didnt make it five minutes without the Holy Ghost ordering me to leave and not come back!!! a woman was stalking outside the mens bathroom door and using her son as a pawn to prop the door open and make weird noises as I had my privates In my hand trying to pee , she then got a security guard to stare at me while I was trying to use the bathroom, Ive proven myself to this Los Angeles and world , God doesnt tolerate perverseness.

2 /5 Joshua Castillo: I been going here off and on since i was in 5th grade. I am 28 now and i experienced a lot of heart ache. O felt like i stood out like a sore thumb made me very uncomfortable. Especially some of the unfruitful and unfriendly people and deacons. I mean i get it no one here is perfect. But it seems like they are out for me sometimes. And i just try to stay to myself. I just go for GODS message for me and i get bugged by ushers and deacons trying to tell me i cant sit in the back by myself. Not in a friendly manner but more of just ordering me and trying to argue with me about where i want to sit. Please dont come here for any reason except to get what GOD has for you... I try to ignore people as much as i can..
