Portrait of Benjamin Jones, Lead Pastor at Reflection Church in Pasadena, CA.

Benjamin Jones

"I didn't grow up in church — I didn't even know what a Pastor was until high school. My life changed on the campus of USC, when someone saw more in me than I saw in myself. That friendship led me to a relationship with God, and I haven't been the same since. For almost 20 years now I've been sharing that story with anyone who'll listen. That's the heart of Reflection: meeting people where they are, and helping them see what they can't yet see in themselves."

  • Like Jesus, we invite others into our journey of faith. No matter what your background or status, you’re welcome to join us.

  • We see people where they are and meet them there. We all start somewhere and need encouragement from people who can relate to where we are.

  • We don’t fake it till we make it. We’re honest about where we are with the understanding that the truth is what sets us free.

  • No one has arrived. We all have room to grow and are humble enough to admit it. We make mistakes, but we don’t give up. We keep moving forward and learn as we go.

WHAT DRIVES US (Our Values)

WHAT GUIDES US (Our Beliefs)

We believe in being upfront about what we believe — even the parts that are hard to hear or unfamiliar. If any of this is new to you, that's completely normal. We'd love to talk about it with you over a cup of coffee.

  • Without it we’re left to personal experience to interpret reality. The Word calibrates our lives to reality as God sees it. Did we mention that it’s alive? It teaches us, challenges us, corrects us, and trains us to live out our God-given purpose. (2 Tim. 3:16)

  • What’s MOST important is that there is only One. What’s mind blowing is that He has revealed Himself in 3 persons: The Father, The Son, & The Holy Spirit. (Mark 12:29)

  • One of a kind. Fully man and fully God. He had the most unique entry (virgin birth), unique life (without sin), unique death (atoned for the sin of all humanity), unique after-life (came back to life and now sits at the right hand of the Father). That’s not all, we’re waiting on His final act when He returns in power and glory to make all things new. (James 5:8)

  • A beautiful, but often misunderstood concept. This is the solution for all of our pain and brokenness. Sound too good to be true? It’s so good it could only be God. (John 3:17)

  • The Ultimate Helper. He is active and present to help us live brand new lives that look more and more like Jesus Himself. Without His help, we would be stuck in a cycle of self-righteousness and guilt and shame. He empowers us, transforms us, and guides us at each step along the way. (John 16:13, Acts 1:8)

  • A future appointment set for all humanity — a day when God sorts out what's been broken and makes it right, once and for all. Scripture describes two outcomes: eternity with God, or eternity apart from Him. It's the most serious thing we believe, and we don't take it lightly.

  • The collection of believers. A community of God’s people, selected and sent to fulfill God’s purpose. We were never meant to live out our faith aimlessly or alone; we need each other. (Hebrews 10:24-25)

Reflection Church is a member of Every Nation Churches. We would not exist without the support and encouragement of Every Nation Ministries. We are excited to be in relationship with the larger body of churches represented by Every Nation. In practice, this means Reflection Church isn't operating on its own — we're part of a global network of churches that holds us accountable and connects our local community to a much bigger mission.
