A Personal Note from Pastor Jerry
Thanks for stopping by ColumbiaLifeChurch.com - I'm excited that you found us. It's always great to have new people discover that Columbia Life Church is where they belong. I hope you'll find that we're where you belong as well. You'll have space to reach out to God, a place to make life long friendships, and a chance to serve others with compassion.
The people that gather here come from a variety of backgrounds and have very diverse interests. There are rock & rollers and country singers. Spiritual people and regular folks, movie buffs and people who prefer to read. Business owners, union members, democrats, republicans, independents, teachers, parents, teenagers, and some people who are still finding their way. We're all together learning to follow Jesus.
Come and walk with us as we climb higher and go farther with Jesus. The journey is always better with others.
Climb Higher.
Go Farther.
God Bless, Pastor Jerry

Starting a Greeter Program
Four years ago I accepted the challenge of evangelism chairperson for our church. One of the first programs the pastor and I developed was the Sunday morning greeter program. -
Motivating the Right Person into the Right Ministry
One of the greatest challenges for most leaders is selecting and motivating the right people into the right ministry positions in hopes of minimizing turnover and frustration. Even in the smaller church with limited personnel, it is important to coordinate people and ministry as much as possible. -
“I TRIED, BUT NO ONE EVER CALLED ME”
“I tried, but no one ever called me” are painful words for a leader who has much work to do and not enough people willing to do it. These words are painful for the person who wanted to contribute, but was never called. These are also painful words for a person who is committed to helping people connect and contribute in meaningful ways within the church.
