Pastor Del Smith became the Senior Pastor of Christian Life Center September 23, 2007. He and his wife, Marvina, have been married since 1985 and have three children, Steven, Chelsey and Erica.  He served as the Executive Pastor of CLC for four years prior to being elected as Senior Pastor.

Del and Marvina have been in ministry since 1985, having served churches in Missouri and Indiana. He graduated from Central Bible College with a Bachelor’s degree in Biblical Studies and holds a Master of Arts in Biblical Literature from the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary. 

Pastor Del has a consuming desire to preach and teach the Bible in contemporary and creative ways. He is passionate in leading Christian Life Center to become a place where people discover God and experience His power in life-changing ways!  He loves all kinds of sports, but is especially dedicated to watching NASCAR.  He also enjoys reading, good coffee, listening to the music he grew up on (70’s), and rarely turns down an invitation to dinner!
