Non-denominational

Modern music, practical teaching, and a relaxed, come-as-you-are atmosphere — popular with young adults and families who want a welcoming community without strong denominational ties.

Mainline & historic

Traditional worship with beautiful sanctuaries, choral music, and liturgical services — congregations that connect faith with history and a long-standing community presence.

Students & young adults

With the University of Colorado nearby, many churches emphasize student ministry — Bible studies, worship nights, and service opportunities built for people in their college and early-career years.

Family-friendly

Strong kids’ programs, youth groups, and safe, supportive environments — with Sunday school, childcare, and age-specific ministries throughout the city.

#IllusoryTruthEffect
“And, like... But you hear that over and over again. When when somebody tells you the sky is purple, your brain thinks, oh, I've heard that before. Mhmm. And it... And it's, like, more credible. Yep. Even if you also think, oh, but I have heard that that isn't true. But you don't immediately go, well, like, well, that's not true because you you hear it over and over and over again. I think that happens with these fake Jesuses that we are exposed to, you know, Christian nationalism in the depiction of Jesus, whiteness in the depiction of Jesus, so many other things that we're gonna unpack with this series.”

#GraceAcrossCultures
“But I heard a number of years ago that this story is the foundational story that brought a tribe in Papua New Guinea to come to know the love and grace of Jesus Christ because they knew about making poultices with spit and dirt to heal people. And they did something like this in their culture and they're like, this Jesus, he's one of us. And they came to know Jesus because of this story. But this reminds us that change is often messy. Now here it is literally messy with mud being spread on someone's eyes, but any change is often messy.”

#ThriveInCommunity
“there's a difference between being able to stand on your own and believing that you were designed to live alone. That's a lie. You can survive without everybody, but you cannot become everything God designed you to become without anybody. I don't care how strong you are, how gifted you are, how educated you are, how saved you are, how much money you have, how many degrees you have on the wall. You cannot be your best self by yourself.”

“Verse five, commit your way to the Lord. There's this word trust again. Trust in him, and he will act. I love this. It's this unwavering confidence in God. We don't know the future. His ways are above our ways. Commit your way to the Lord. Trust in him, and he will act. It isn't you will act. It isn't I will act. It isn't I'll be empowered and emboldened someday to to do act. It's no. No. No. No. Trust your way to the Lord. Commit your way to the Lord. Trust in him, and he will act. That's a powerful verse for some of us here this morning. Be still and wait patiently.”
51s
“``Do you know that most of Jesus's miracles never happened in the synagogue? Most of his miracles happen where? Outside. Most of his miracles happen in the marketplace. Most of his healings happen in the marketplace. Most of his healings happen where people were at work. Come on. Jesus has anointed you. Come on, lift those hands. Oh god. Come on, lift those hands. The spirit of the lord. I want to pray for some folks who are ready to be launched. I want to pray for some folks who are ready to be released, who say yes, yes, I hear the word of the lord on today and I'm I I have decided that today is my day of coming out. I received the message of Jubilee.”

#RejectFakeJesuses
“when we engage with the... With these fake Jesuses, we have to we have to dispute. Right? We have to reject the Jesuses that we have been given. Mhmm. And it's... Whether or not we think that those Jesuses are credible or real or even, like, convincing, our repeated and constant exposure to them roots them in our mind. Yep. So we can say, I don't believe Jesus was blonde. I don't believe that, you know, whatever. In the same way that I can say, I don't believe God is a man.”
31s
#RealJesus
“So one way is to just literally limit your exposure to people depicting Jesus in ways that are harmful. Mhmm. The other, another, is to, really intentionally fill up your cup with the real Jesus. Mhmm. To say, who are my sources? How do I spend time with the Jesus of the gospels? How do I really anchor in my own imagination, in my mind, in my community, in my conversations the truth about who Jesus is?”
52s
#DisabilityNotSin
“Now one of the things that we have to remember as we approach this is that in Jesus' time, people thought that birth defects or people with disabilities, that those things that happened to people happened because of sin. And so we get this question. So who sinned? Did this guy sin or did his parents sin? I mean, sometimes they even believe the sin went for seven generations. So maybe it was his great, great, great, great, grandparents? How is that there? Jesus says, no. That's not it. But God is going to use this situation to tell people something about God.”
31s
#SeeingThroughFaith
“The Pharisees and even the disciples who are following Jesus, they're thinking they're kind of figuring Jesus out, and they're getting an idea of where Jesus is going with things. And the disciples are starting to feel a little more confident that they've got a clue what's going on here. And then this happens, and they're like, well, what's going on here? And they seem to be seeing less when Jesus gives sight to someone else.”
51s
#GunsToGardenTools
“are we part of the problem? And are we part of the solution? Are we willing to be a partner with God to end suffering in the world? There's a guy named Shane Claiborne. He lives out in Pennsylvania. His answer to this question is yes. I'm going to be a partner with God. He goes and he collects guns that people turn in, and he and some friends turn the guns into gardening tools. some of you know there's a verse about that in the bible. He's taking it literally. has he ended gun violence in The United States? No. But there are a few less guns that are no longer hurting people.”
