Great word! Thank you Brandon Smith for your heart for Christ! Thank you Jennifer and Ryan. If you attend this church, you will feel the Holy Spirit move. You will feel lifted and you’ll feel called to serve and you will feel changed from glory to glory to glory. The worship is fantastic. Highly recommend. Feeling beyond grateful to have found this place. I had been looking for a church home for a while, and wasn’t sure where to begin. Meeting a church member at a premiere allowed me to see a whole new side of the industry. My first visit there felt so good, inclusive, and beautiful. Gave me a whole new experience with the church, changing my mindset of what church can be. Here I am 2 years later, getting more involved every month. Never thought I’d see myself back and church, and I’m so happy to be back This church is such an amazing house of the Lord ! They offer so much discipleship and amazing fellowship gatherings . A great Christ centered community. This church is full of kind, generous, caring men and women of God. I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants to be apart of a body of Christ who genuinely walks out the gospel . I just started coming here 3 weeks ago. I so far really like this church. It a perfect size for me. Everyone is very friendly and kind to me. They also made me feel welcomed. They offered to help me with anything I need. I really love the worship team. I feel the holy spirit in this beautiful church. I really enjoyed the Candle light Christmas service. I used to think writing reviews for churches was so silly -- it seemed so weird to "rate" a faith community, especially when people's experiences with churches tend to be very personal and subjective. But I relent. The Lord has altered my life through Expression 58 and so I have to testify! I'm not even sure how to concisely do this, so this review will probably will end up being extremely long, lol. Five years ago I moved to LA from the midwest, leaving a vibrant and faith-filled church community behind. I knew no one in the city, and the moment I moved I knew I needed to connect to a faith community -- both to stay rooted and also just... because I wanted friends. But upon my arrival in LA I was completely intimidated by the sheer number of options for churches, as well as the prevailing stereotype that churches in this city are vapid and have weird, worldly theology. While this may be true of some, this is the antithesis of E58. It was immediately obvious to me the moment I heard the first worship song that this is a people passionately running after the Lord's heart. I cannot say enough about the worship at this church. Worship is a living, breathing thing; it is a conversation with God, prophetic at times and often spontaneous. You are invited to worship any way you like -- you may stand still, sit, kneel, dance, raise your hands, shout, stay quiet. It is truly a community where I feel safe to worship in whatever way I need to, no performance. The lead pastor, Jen, is a fierce and intelligent woman that does not hold back on theology in her sermons. No pandering... you are gonna LEARN and actually be challenged on Sundays. Not only that, this community walks the talk. They preach the Lord's heart for justice and follow through with numerous justice programs as well as by responding to the immediate justice needs in our community. They preach the importance of diversity, and can boast incredible diversity not just in the congregation but also on the staff and in leadership roles. This diversity extends to age too. While there are many young adults, this is a community for families as well and people at any stage of life. The community I found at Expression has truly been my village. When my husband (who I also met at E58!) and I were getting married on a budget, there were so many goods and services that we could not afford. SO many people from our E58 community stepped in to help and bless us when we needed it. This made our wedding both successful and unforgettable. Our community is strong and grounded, as well as amazing with accountability and advice. Do not be mislead -- this church is made up of human beings and therefore is inherently imperfect. We of course deal with very human problems. But if you're looking for a perfect place filled with perfect holy people, I can guarantee that you will not find one. I am deeply grateful to be in a community that embraces difficulties and imperfections, and is constantly re-surrendering to the Lord's perfection. Okay I'll end it there, even though I could say so much more. If you are searching, may the grace of the Lord bless you on your search. If you ever visit, come say hi!
