A Story Worth Telling

Hey guys! My name is Kailyn. I’m 16 years old, going to be a junior next year (yikes). I’m Kane and Amy’s second kid, if that rings a bell. Oh, and I’m the sister of the ever-present Sammie Kuo, who (let’s be real) we just can’t seem to get rid of. I mean, we try […]

He Went Before Me

My name is Nancy McIntire and I along with three of my six children have attended Lighthouse for a year and a half.  My other three children live in San Diego. As I think over the past few months, I see several areas where the Lord in His sovereignty, went before me and provided exactly […]

God’s Grace: Cleansing the Crazy from COVID-19

“Gaahhhh!” I’m caught between a trash can and a tantrum. We’re at the park, and while the boys are eating their snacks, Travis drops a piece of his blueberry Belvita cracker on the ground. The “COVID crazy mom” in me panics as he grabs it just before I can, but am relieved to pry it […]

A Loving Father and a Mighty King

Face mask. Check. Bag of food. Check. Cell phone. Check. These are my essential items on the morning of April 20, 2020.  I walk past a closed barbershop, turn the corner into an alley, and make my way up to the single-floor duplex. I place the bag on the doorstep and make a phone call. […]

How Can I Pray for my Oppressed Neighbor?

Philippians 2:3 tells us to see others as more significant than ourselves. This mindset is a vital aspect of empathy in which someone else’s story, the valley of suffering they are in, their genuine needs, and who they are as a person are more valuable to me than my own life. This is the mind […]

God’s Faithfulness in Career and Job Search

Working at a job you don’t like is hard. Making a career transition is hard. Searching for a job before a pandemic was hard. Searching for a job during COVID has felt impossible. But even in these struggles, God has faithfully been with me through this entire career rollercoaster. Hi, I’m Jeannie Lee, a member […]

Growing Hearts for Prayer

At the end of January, the Lighthouse staff had the privilege of attending a prayer seminar, “A Praying Life,” hosted by Paul Miller’s organization, SeeJesus. Jon Hori, a dear friend of many of our own staff, graciously sacrificed a few days to facilitate, lead, and teach the seminar for us. Though there’s so much to […]

Seeking God’s Will in Uncertainty

Hello! I’m Becca! I just graduated (last week!) from USC, and I’ve been attending Lighthouse for the past 4 years. I wanted to share how God has been humbling and teaching me in this particular COVID season through a big decision I had to make a few weeks ago. I hope it is a comforting […]
