About Us

Denver is a great city. Thriving culture, amazing weather, and of course, magnificent scenery. But the people of Denver are great too, and we believe that God is extending his transforming grace and restoration to the thousands of people that call Denver home. We want to be part of that vision and mission, creating a local community of people who follow Jesus, embody his grace, and extend his love to the whole city. We invite you to join this journey with us.

The mission of New Denver Church is to lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ. We don’t believe a church is simply a building or set of programs but rather a community of people. Our prayer is that this new community of people will be known by their authentic relationships with one another and the way they share God’s love with the people of Denver. We also believe that those who have never been a part of a church like this should experience acceptance, grace, and ultimately, what it means to have a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.

If you live in Denver, we hope you’ll consider joining us. Perhaps you’ve been a follower of Jesus for many years but have never participated in a church. Or maybe you’re someone who is curious about a relationship with God but you’ve always been skeptical of organized religion. If so, we understand your hesitance. But we hope you’ll give us a try. If you do not live in the area, but wish to support us, follow the link above to get involved. Either way, may God take our humble efforts and use them to make his presence known among the city of Denver.

Currently, our team consists of full time staff members Norton Herbst, Stephen Redden, Jason Malec, our Leadership Development Team Associates Chris Chancey, Mike Hartle, Drew Hill and all our tremendous families.

Norton, Stephen, and Jason became friends while working together at North Point Community Church in Atlanta, Georgia. Norton went to graduate school in Denver, Stephen has family out west, and Jason has always had a passion for the west. All three of us have dreamed of starting a church together and sensed God’s calling to do so in Denver. Functionally, Norton will direct worship, teaching, and administration; Stephen will oversee community life; and Jason will organize environments to nurture families.

New Denver Church will not be affiliated with any denomination.  We do have a strategic alliance with North Point Ministries which means that our church will share the same guiding mission and vision – to lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.
