Role in the Community

The corpus holds his dedicated TAH encyclopedia record #1944 (published 2017-11-14) as the primary community record: 2017. His documented community role in the corpus is pastoral leadership of the Taiwanese Christian Church of Columbus, Ohio (2007–present). The corpus record is bibliographic (full text stays at TAH); no additional movement-activity appearances were found.

Corpus re-checks 2026-09-25 (deepen-x 09251039-2), 2026-09-26 (09251039-2), 2026-10-01 (09261341-7) and 2026-10-07 (deepen-x 10052158-19): fresh greps 林天成 / Tien-Chen Lin — sole hits remain the own TAH #1944 record and the works index listing. The 2026-10-07 sweep also probed variants across all five corpus dirs: “Tiencheng Arthur Chang” (record 1367) and “Tien-mo Lin” (Our Journeys 38) are different individuals, not this pastor. No memoir or community mentions beyond the existing section; nothing new absorbable, no conflicts to hold.

Re-verify 2026-10-09 (deepen-x slice 10070717-27): five-dir greps 林天成 / Tien-Chen Lin — sole hits remain own record + index/sources rows; the only other grep match is “Tien-Cheng Chang” (record 1948, a different person). Verified-saturated.
