“I am really enjoying my time here. God was so faithful in bringing me here. I am a commercial music major, and the smaller class sizes overall in the music department have been a blessing in us getting more instructor help. One of my music professors has super gone out of his way for me too, like zoom calling when I've needed sight singing help, and even driving to school in the evening one day to help me with a music tech assignment. My other music professors have been open, invitational, and available for office hours and email questions too. I really appreciate how overall the Conservatory of music is humble at Biola, and that they incorporate Jesus into what we do and bringing Him glory through our art, yet striving to be excellent in that at the same time with our music. I am also in Torrey, and WOW. It is such a rich learning experience. I've been learning how to discuss with others on different types of books, whether it's the Bible, book by C.S. Lewis, or books by non Christian authors who have very different beliefs. We look at different perspectives, discuss what a book is talking about, yet still hold to Biblical views. The Torrey professors are wonderful overall, they put you with a mentor, and mine (Dr. Henderson) is awesome. I love the socratic model Torrey enforces, the writing, and my cohort has awesome people in it, who even with being from different places, including different states, having different personalities, love Jesus and respect each other overall. All my professors have been investing in their students in some shape or form, and overall they really care about student's character. I came from a public high school, and while I appreciate experiences I had there, it was super different than Biola. It feels so nice to have a hugely increased number of teachers and peers that really overall treat me with the love of Jesus, including kindness. I have never seen a place where so many people treated others like they are made in God's image. It's definitely not perfect, I have seen students say and do things they shouldn't here and there, but overall, it has been wonderful, people overall are really kind and welcoming. Biola is a beautiful model of Biblical unity amidst diversity. I've also really enjoyed how they try to celebrate different ethnicities there. The school is super Christ-centered. I thought the chapels and teaching here would be like baby Christian milk, but while there is milk, there is also meat. Good balance, especially for so many different people at different places in their walks with God. Overall, great commuter community, the collegium is a blessing. Finally, a shout out to campus security. I commute, and my car needed to be jumpstarted one time. They literally have a jump start kit in the office. The other day also, I didn't realize it, but my tire was flat, and turns out there was a nail in it. I got a call from campus security about it, saying that a Residential Director saw it and called it in, and they wanted to let me know so I wouldn't drive away with it. I appreciate the 24/7 campus security line, the phone operators are so friendly overall, and I appreciate cs driving around campus, including at night, and keeping watch, too. I'm glad that campus security, and people on this campus, are looking out for me. So blessed that Jesus has got my back, and He has been using the people here at Biola in doing that.”

“This store is simply amazing..great selection....excellent customer service...and amazing worship music to melt away anything negative that happened in the day ..JOY comes upon me every time I walk in this store!”
“Ordered another ministry book and the process was very simple. I have ordered both on line and over the phone. Ordering is easy- user friendly. Person working the bookstore this morning was knowledgeable (sorry I didn’t get your name) and helpful.I will be purchasing again! Much food (Christ) to be experienced and enjoyed! There is never a shortage of food (Christ)!!!”
“Great shop, glad I happened upon it, though that wasn’t a coincidence I’m sure. Rhapsody makes tons of oils and incense. Her and her staff are incredibly knowledgeable and can help you with all of your metaphysical needs. I knew the name of her shop from previous Google searches but hadn’t made it in as I was on the other side of Long Beach at the time. Ended up in the same center and recognized the name and checked it out. They can answer any questions you have and have oils, incense, crystals, tools, books and much more to fit your needs. Also hold classes to sign up for!”
“As soon as you cross the threshold, you're met with the wonderful smell of ink on paper. Plenty of seating, to sit down and browse. Wide aisles that you can stand in or kneel and check the shelves out. And if you're feeling up to it, do a little impulse shopping for some really interesting gifts, journals, pens and more for yourself or someone else. Conclude your visit with a coffee and a pastry whilst leafing through your purchases.”

“What an amazing place to find book treasures for all ages! Whether you’re shopping for your child, yourself, or your grandparents, you’re sure to find something you love. And you absolutely can’t beat the price!”
“gundam prices are solid for HG and RGs considering if you order from any other business online that you have to pay $10 shipping. You have to be careful with MGs because there's a few here $10-15 too expensive.”
“I've ordered several times and really love the service, speed of delivery and the condition my packages arrive in. So many great books available. Multiple shipping options and reasonable pricing.”

“I visited the Wonder Emporium for the first time today to find a gift for my granddaughter, and I was delighted by the experience. They even offered to gift wrap her presents, which was a lovely touch. The husband and wife who run the store were incredibly friendly and enjoyable to chat with. It felt refreshing to shop in a physical store rather than ordering toys online from Amazon. I will definitely return for future gifts.”

“A really cute ma & pa shop. A Fullerton staple, most definitely! The shop really is half off (check the original price heheh) and they have a ton of different genres. I’ve been many times and they have foreign books all the time. Recently, I went during a fire sale, where they sell used books very cheap. I got books on drawing, culture, comics, etc.. it was honestly a great bargain. Support a local business and stop on by!”
“Stopped by on a whim, the staff is nice and helpful. Was able to find what I was looking for and some future recommendations. I would visit again when I’m in the area.”

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting “The Good Shepherd Catholic Store” and I must say, the experience was outstanding. From the moment I walked in the door, I was greeted warmly by Ms. Jacqueline and Ms. Yvonne. A great place for all your Catholic supplies books, statues and so much more. Because of their services, I will revisit the store and recommend The Good Shepherd Catholic Store to All!!!”
“The most beautiful Catholic Store I have ever been! I felt as if the Holy Spirit guided me to this store to find the necessary the Rosary and St. Michael statue. The lady who works behind the register is genuinely the most God-spirited woman I met who went out of her way to help me out to find anything I needed, she even waived off the price for the Magnificent Book. What a lovely environment. God Bless St. Joseph Catholic Books.”
“Great little gem loaded with all kinds of gifts, books, and other Christian products. Both in English and Spanish. I searched all over for a particular "Footprints " poem, and they had it there. Caring and friendly staff. Highly recommend you go there.”
“This shop is really nice, I actually bought a pair of AirPods in here once and I was completely satisfied with my purchase. I also bought a cap to wear and it looks very nice on me. This store has pretty much everything a student at college would need like laptops, headphones, books, art supplies and merchandise. The shop has a 2nd floor but I have not seen what’s upstairs unfortunately, but this store is very awesome.”
“Wow, what a great little spot. It's rare to find a used bookstore and this one is awesome. So many books and pretty clearly organized. The service is also super friendly and warm. Will return when I'm in the area.”
“Used books and collectibles here. I found one of my most prized books here. An Aorcraft yearbook for 1929. I also bought a 1958 owners glovebox manual for a Corvette. A great place to shop and there is a large antique mall next door.”
“Very adorable bookstore. A classic environment with a great selection of books. One of my favorite bookstores this side of the Mississippi!!! Definitely check it out!”
“My family and I were visiting from Utah. Found this place, and the owners welcomed me in for some casual chess games. The games were awesome! Charlene did a great job in helping me find some souvenirs, too! This place is very friendly and the people who play here are also kind! I bought a chess set for my oldest son and a chess clock/timer! If we ever visit again, I'll be coming back!”
“Jazmine at the Customer Service Department is great. She assisted me with all my concerns and even remembered my face when I came back. Thank you for a great experience at the Bookstore”
“Haven't been to Barnes& Noble in years! I didn't think it would be busy considering all of the digital books available these days. But this place was slammed. They don't match any other stores so I would recommend searching Amazon and eBay before purchases.”
“I feel so sad about the sudden passing away of Fr. Perez, he started this church. But his death did not amount to nothing. It only flourished more the old traditional way of saying Mass. I have been Blessed by meeting good priests here too the likes of which is Fr. Starbuck and others, I have been thankful to God that there’s one like this in Orange County, truly a gem!! Hope to see more faithful flocking here. God bless!”
“I am so glad I stopped by!! It was a beautiful experience! The store owner is very nice and welcoming. I am not Muslim nor Arabic, so I was a little nervous to ask for The Quran. However, he was welcoming and gave me lots of information to help me pick a Quran. I appreciate the openness, made me eager to learn and felt comfortable in the shop. Thank you for the knowledge and great experience!”
“Tuve una cita ahoy en el dentista super amables bien limpio tomaron su tiempo para explícame lo que mi esposo ocupava...me gusto como nos trataron 5 ***** para el staff que nos atendieron”
“The store is good for animes fans definitely, has figures, plushies, and more merch. I don't agree with the other reviews saying its "one of the best," the store is just too small to entertain that idea. Sakura Anime Toys just a few miles away is a better option. However, one of the main reasons why I liked the store is the pricing. Nothing there was overpriced, everything was reasonably priced and possibly under priced. I would return to this location.”
“(Translated by Google) I am happy to recommend. For its fine attention and the diversity of spiritual support content, I recommend that its good prices and quality(Original)Me complace recomendar. Por su fina atención y la diversidad de contenido de apoyo espiritual, recomiendo por que sus buenos precios y calidad”
