#DoctrinesRevealLove
“``So I challenge you. Take a doctrine. Take any doctrine. Don't proof text it. Prove to me, prove to yourself, prove to someone else how it reveals God's love. Why does it matter? Why do our beliefs matter? Why is it important for us to understand our beliefs? It's not just about Sabbath. It's not just about going to church on the right day. It's not just about having a health message. It's not just about how we take care of our bodies. Those are just rules and regulations. Rules and regulations have never changed a heart. Every understanding, every theological fundamental belief is big words, every doctrine, every way that we could ever look at scripture needs to reveal God's love.”

“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.”
59s
#TruthAndRelationalFaith
“So what is it that we're missing when we have really great facts? So let's just look at it. Every doctrine, I believe, should answer two things. is it true? Is this idea true? Is the Sabbath true? Is is God really a trinity? Is he really three in one? Is God really the father? Is Jesus really the son? Is there really, you know, a time of judgment? Are those things true? Should answer that. And secondly, how does it help me know God? That's what people are asking today. And we're bombarding them with theological information, but it's not creating relational connection because we're missing a step.”

#LoveBeforeDoctrine
“The forefathers that started and developed our Adventist doctrines, they already had the foundation of love. They were in. They were so rooted in. And then from there, out of that grew beliefs and doctrines and ways of understanding scripture. We've been doing it backwards. We're trying to get all of the knowledge into people expecting it to develop love, and it's devoid of that. Facts are not relationship. Love is relationship, and love needs to be expressed through community, through sacrifice, through service.”
58s
#TrinityDeepensFaith
“Ephesians two eight teaches us it's through the son, by the Holy Spirit, to the father. We need all three. And as we build a relationship with all three, your faith will deepen. Your faith will be deepened. Just look at how God reveals himself through his trinity. God is love, and the trinity shows God's expression of love throughout time, throughout time eternal. It's always been. God never changes. And his love, the very definition of love, shows us that because every belief that we have as Christians, as Seventh day Adventists, every belief reveals God's love.”

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.
