#PeopleNotPlace
“The problem that I'm seeing today is that we used that system and now have the buildings, but we didn't follow the instructions from the onset. We lost it somehow to where we now have the building and we're consistently trying to fill the building as if the building is the church. The building has never been the church. The people are the church.”
35s
“But there is an invitation for us to sit with people through our struggles. And as Keith mentioned, the church was supporting was supporting the church in resources and in other ways of financial giving. So what we see is the Philippi church honors and models this generosity. Right? This withstanding with Paul through his trials. And we also see that Paul models gratitude for this church's generosity. He receives it. He accepts and trusts the love of the church.”

#WhoWeAreInChrist
“You see, it's not who where we meet, but who we are that makes all the difference. Do you see the connection there? It's not where we meet. It's who we are. Right? It's who we believe in. It's not where we come from. Do you see this? All of this connecting together. It's who we are in Christ Jesus. It's who we are as God's new people that makes all the difference. And the who we are isn't static, but a vibrant growing body of believers who are committed to God's big construction project in each other's lives.”

#sufferingasdiscipline
“But right now, while I'm here on this earth, as Jesus said, if they hated me, they're gonna hate you. Jesus said, if they persecuted me, they're gonna persecute you. I'm a believer of the old fashioned belief system that suffering is not a punishment of God, but suffering is a spiritual discipline. I believe the words of Jesus Christ when he said, take up your cross and follow me.”
33s
#LifeStorms
“Storm comes into our lives in many forms and shapes. Sometimes financially, we go bankrupt. Sometimes relationally, we go into conflict. Sometimes emotionally, we go into depression. Sometimes nothing is wrong outside, but inside there is an unrest, a turbulence, something's missing.”
24s
#SacrificialLove
“It was hard and it took a toil on me but again, that's what sacrificial love looked like. Believers, I want you to know that loving the church, the sacrifice is necessary. That's how God designed it. God designed for loving the church to be communicated not in word only but in giving our lives.”
39s
#StoneRolledAway
“Take just a moment and ponder this question. What old thing in your life might God want to remove or transform so that new life can emerge? Now think about the empty tomb. It wasn't just a cave without a body. It was a sign. God had rolled the stone away saying, I am bringing life where there was only death.”
53s
#StartWithNeighbors
“So I wanna challenge you. I want you to think about this. I want you to pray about it. I want it to burn in your heart and in your mind so much so that you can't sleep until God reveals to you what it is you're supposed to be doing, the community that you're supposed to be building around you. And let's start small. Maybe it's you to your neighbor. Maybe it's you invite your neighbor over for a cup of coffee or a cup of tea or dinner. Don't say anything about Sabbath. Yes, we're Sabbath keepers, but how about you just get to know them? Let them see Jesus in you.”
40s
#MakeFriendsFirst
“I'm like, have they asked? How many times would it take for you to go to their church? How many times would it take for you to go to their kids' event? How many times would it take for you to go out to dinner with them? You see, we only think about trying to make them Adventist instead of making friends. Making friends is the natural connection for community and fellowship and faith. So, church, we are doing it wrong.”
50s
#PrayerFueledAction
“They didn't ask God to remove difficulty. They asked him for the power to remain faithful in the midst of difficulty. They asked the one who had the power to overcome. So, dependency is not passivity, is it? Prayerful dependence is not weakness. action, obedient action fueled by prayer. Dependency is obedient action fueled by what? Prayer. Obedient action fueled by prayer. It's not sitting and waiting for God to do what he's called us to do.”

Why Alhambra churches are unique

Set in the heart of the San Gabriel Valley, churches in Alhambra reflect the city’s cosmopolitan mix of Chinese, Taiwanese, and Latino communities, shaping worship languages and cultural rhythms. It’s common to encounter blended services, community meals, and practical helps like ESL or citizenship prep alongside Bible teaching, including bilingual English and Mandarin services, Spanish-language congregations with translation, and cross-cultural community outreach.
Alhambra’s family-oriented neighborhoods and multi-generational households encourage ministries that nurture every age, from nursery to teens. Proximity to Cal State LA and nearby campuses also means Alhambra churches invest in mentorship and weeknight meetups that connect students and young professionals with spiritual community, often through small groups—look for strong kids programs for young families, college student ministries, and young adults and professionals.
Geographically compact and walkable, the city’s corridors like Main Street and Valley Boulevard foster congregations that gather in both historic sanctuaries and adaptive storefront spaces, making worship easy to access by foot or transit. To serve commuters and varied schedules, many Alhambra churches offer multiple gatherings and music styles, from liturgical to pop-influenced praise, highlighted by multiple service times and venues, modern worship with contemporary band, and historic sanctuary architecture.
