Following

Jesus

At Columbia, we emphasize Whole-Life Discipleship, which means that following Jesus encompasses every area of our lives.

Jesus

Jesus Changes Everything!

At Columbia, we believe that following Jesus isn’t merely about learning about Him; it’s about becoming like Him. The Bible teaches that we are “transformed” and “conformed” into the image of Jesus (2 Corinthians 3:18 & Romans 12:2). When we say we are ALL NEW, we affirm our belief that Jesus can change our lives here and now. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, we are being made ALL NEW as we join God in renewing and restoring creation.

We hold a profound belief: Jesus was fully human, not superhuman. He came to demonstrate what it truly means to be human and to live life to the fullest. Following Jesus means embracing our humanity in its fullness and striving to reflect His character in every aspect of our lives. At Columbia, we emphasize Whole-Life Discipleship, which means that following Jesus encompasses every area of our lives—our work, play, relationships, finances, and how we invest our energy. It’s about integrating faith into all that we do.

Follow Jesus

Are you ready to become

All New?

If you’re seeking something new, different, or more fulfilling in your life, we invite you to try these practices this week and share your experience with us:

Learn About Jesus

Read the Gospel of John and take note of how radically countercultural Jesus is. His teachings can challenge and transform your worldview.

Spend Time With Jesus

Through the Holy Spirit, you can experience the presence of Jesus. Dedicate 5 minutes in silence a couple times this week and repeat this prayer: “Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me.”

Be Like Jesus

Everywhere Jesus went, He enriched the lives of others. He gave people tastes of heaven. This week, do something courageous to enrich someone else’s life in the name of Jesus.

If you try one of these practices, we’d love to hear about your experience!
