The Magic House — Set Free Anaheim
This is straight Jesus with a switchblade—where the holy meets the hood. We're out here in Anaheim pullin' souls outta the gutter with that raw love of Christ. No suits. No judgment. Just real ones gettin' set free by the blood of Jesus.
Started in '82 right here in the streets of Anaheim, Set Free blew up from one church to a worldwide movement: churches, ranches, recovery homes, even a seminary called Set Free University. But it all started with a handful of broken people who said "Yes" to Jesus and never looked back.
At the Magic House, we don't ask where you came from—we ask if you're ready to change. Addicts, convicts, gangsters, single moms, lost kids—we take 'em all in. We house you, feed you, pray over you, and walk with you. Not because we're saints, but because we were you.
We pull you in with that gangsta grit—raw, unfiltered, and real—and hit you with that unconditional Christ love when you least expect it. You come for the safety, but you stay 'cause the Holy Spirit wrecks you—in the best way.
"If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old is gone, the new has come." – 2 Corinthians 5:17
We don't always got room, but we always make room. 'Cause Jesus never turned people away—and neither do we. Freely we give, 'cause freely we received.
Real Community
No fake, just family
Unconditional Love
Come as you are
"He came to seek and save the lost"
- Luke 19:10
