CHUCK BOMAR

Chuck Bomar served nine years at Cornerstone Church in Simi Valley, California, before moving to Portland, Oregon, in 2008 to start Colossae Church. Out of this church, a total of three churches have now been planted.

In addition to embedding into the city through strategic relationships with civic leaders in the school districts, he has authored over a dozen small group resources and nine books including: Serving Local Schools; Losing Your Religion; Better Off Without Jesus; Ready. Set. Next; Worlds Apart; College Ministry from Scratch; College Ministry 101; and 99 Thoughts for College-aged People.

When he is not out of town speaking at conferences or consulting with churches and denominations, he is home with his family. As you can see from his Facebook and Instagram feeds, being home with his girls is his happy place. Chuck and his wife, Barbara, have three beautiful daughters: Karis, Hope, and Sayla.
