We live in a cultural moment where people are longing for wisdom, yet increasingly uncertain where to find it. James’ letter speaks to this longing—not with vague spiritual sentiment, but with direct, practical wisdom for forming resilient lives of faith grounded in Jesus, the embodiment of God’s wisdom.

Before returning to the book of James, we wanted to take a “halfway point” look at our Two-Year Vision for Park Church. Before we begin construction on our building (which is only one part of the vision!), we want to celebrate the stories of our building and set some expectations for our experience here over the next year, all within the bigger picture of God’s faithfulness.

What does it mean to be Easter people living in an Easter world? Easter people can face the brokenness of the world with honesty and hope, enjoy the beauty of the world as a foretaste of the world to come, and live with sacrificial love and missional purpose. We rebuild and remake everything around the “masterpiece gift” that is Christ’s death and resurrection.

Doubt is part of the journey of faith. After His resurrection, Jesus’ meeting with Thomas teaches us about His heart for the doubting: compassion and invitation into deeper trust and surrender. He offers joy and life to those who trust Him and follow His way of life.

Jesus is not what we expect but better than we imagine. He is an unexpected King; a humble servant-King. He is bringing an unexpected Kingdom; He welcomes us and our “enemies” into His Kingdom. He is bringing an unexpected salvation; He is saving the world by saving us from sin and death. Will we reject Him? Try to redefine Him? Receive Him?

Work begins with God. Before sin entered the world, God placed humanity in His creation with a calling: to cultivate, create, steward, and serve. Work is not primarily about earning money or proving worth—it is about imaging God and participating in His work in the world. Whether you work with your hands or through relationships, ideas, caregiving, creativity, or strategic leadership, your work participates in the goodness of God’s world and contributes to the flourishing of others.
This installation of “Be with Jesus and Follow His Way of Life” continues our semiannual preaching series, where we revisit our vision for discipleship to Jesus with a focus on a particular practice.

A pastoral word for the new year from Lay Elder Chance Coe, reflecting on where we’ve been in 2025 and challenging us to enter 2026 with an obedience fueled by faith, stepping into the waters of the year and listening to the Spirit as we work together to push back darkness.
Jesus came to us in the middle of our world, rife with poverty and struggle. By His birth and through His life, we see that He can truly identify with us and that God is actively working to redeem His broken world.
When reflecting on the history of redemption, it’s clear that God writes long stories. Long chapters of conflict, confusion, darkness, silence, and a lot of waiting often mark those s. Advent reminds us that the story of Jesus begins not with resolution but with people waiting in the midst of prolonged tension.
The Gospel according to Luke opens with God’s people caught between promise and fulfillment. We encounter many characters there who model the honest struggle for faith in seasons of waiting, confusion, and disruption. These portraits of real people—and God’s real responses to them—provide a guide for how we engage with God in the real tensions of life: when we feel the ache, when we don’t have clarity, and when hope feels like a battle.

In a culture marked by spiritual apathy, social injustice, political polarization, and self-absorbed living, Jonah and Amos speak with timely relevance for our lives in Denver today.
Amos is a shepherd from the south (Judah) sent to confront the elite in the northern kingdom of Israel. He denounces empty religious rituals, economic injustice, and societal complacency. Amos reveals how deeply God cares about righteousness, justice, and covenant faithfulness—and how His people can no longer separate worship from daily ethics.

This fall, we’re spending time in the minor prophets of Jonah and Amos. On Sunday, September 28, we finished Jonah, and next Sunday, October 12, we’ll begin Amos. In between, we had the privilege of hearing from Michael Goldstein on key themes throughout Jonah and Amos—justice and mercy—through the lens of a story from the Gospel of Luke.
Michael is the lead pastor of the Denver church plant, Fellow Citizens, launching in the spring of next year. Learn more at fellowcitizens.church.

Jonah is a story-driven prophetic book centered around a reluctant prophet who is called to preach repentance to Israel’s enemies in Nineveh. Jonah refuses, not out of fear, but because he knows God is merciful—and he doesn’t want Nineveh to receive that mercy. God relentlessly pursues both Jonah and the Ninevites, extending His compassion to rebels—insiders and outsiders alike.

This fall marks our sixth installation of “Be with Jesus and Follow His Way of Life,” a semiannual preaching series where we revisit our vision for discipleship to Jesus (with a focus on a particular practice).
But first, what is that vision for discipleship? Park Church exists to make disciples of Jesus for the glory of God and the joy of all people. What’s a disciple? A disciple is someone who has been reconciled to God by grace through faith in Christ and is learning to be with Jesus and follow His way of life.
This particular installation of the series is simply called “Rest” and is aimed at helping disciples of Jesus learn more about what it means to “be with Jesus” by helping us grow in our practices of rest and Sabbath. This mini-series precedes its sibling, “Work,” which we’ll visit in January 2026.

In a culture that constantly demands more—more productivity, more entertainment, more commitments, more distractions—many people feel stretched thin, exhausted, and unsure whether their time is being spent on what truly matters. The way we use our time reveals our deepest values, yet many of us are caught in patterns that leave us anxious, hurried, and spiritually malnourished. In this third portion of our Seek First the Kingdoms series, we will explore what it means to “redeem the time” (Ephesians 5:16) by centering our lives around God’s Kingdom. Rather than being ruled by cultural expectations, we are called to wisely and intentionally steward our time in light of God’s Kingdom.

In response to the wonder of Jesus’ resurrection and victory over death and the grave, Easter stands alone as the most joyful, boisterous day we observe each year.
Palm Sunday begins Holy Week and remembers Jesus’ “Triumphal Entry” into Jerusalem. We see that Jesus doesn’t always fit our expectations, but He is far better than we imagine Him to be. With the disciples, we seek to respond with faith that seeks understanding.
In seeking to grow significantly in how we disciple the next generation, extend the hospitality of Jesus, cultivate leaders church-wide, and multiply Gospel-centered ministry, we’re embarking on a two-year path of generosity that will ask something of each of us. As this series continues, we hope the life and leadership of our generous King (2 Corinthians 8:9) will be a compelling force, taking us past this short sermon series, through the sustained work of these next two years, and on to a new place in our lives where we trust Him more than ever, seeing His Kingdom everywhere we look (and often through the humble work of our hands).

In a world filled with competing pressures and distractions, it’s easy to feel anxious, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the deeper, more meaningful life we long for. In our Spring sermon series, we’ll explore how Jesus offers a path that frees us from these anxieties, inviting us to experience His peace and joy by realigning our lives and priorities with His Kingdom.https://parkchurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Sermon_11am_2023.02.23.m4a

Each year, to finish the year, we have a Christmastide service of worship and prayer to look back on the previous year and seek to commit our way to the Lord in the upcoming year. This year, Lay Elder Erick Frazier gave a homily on the choice between life and death as presented by Deuteronomy 30:11–20.

This Advent, we’ll look at the traditional advent themes of Hope, Love, Joy, and Peace through the lens of the Book of Revelation. Contrary to popular belief, the Book of Revelation is not intended to be a veiled message about the future. It is an unveiling (this is the meaning of the word translated “revelation” or “apocalypse,” Greek: apokalupsis) about the true nature of reality, and it offers a theological perspective on the complex and powerful spiritual dynamics that shape our everyday lives.
The Book of Revelation offers a helpful lens through which to explore the season of Advent where the church considers how we are to live between the first arrival of Jesus where God’s light broke into the world and Christ’s Second Coming when all of the darkness and death will finally and fully give way to the glory of God’s New Creation.

The culture of our city has the power to shape us in more ways than we might know. When Christians conform to the desires, values, and practices of their city, it creates real problems in the church. In 1 Corinthians, Paul writes to a messy church experiencing all sorts of city-shaped problems. To confront these problems, Paul reminds the church of who they are in Christ and calls them to live with a Christ-shaped vision for life.

Every summer at Park Church, we spend several weeks in the Psalms. The Psalms give us a vocabulary and a “hymnal” for relating to God through the full range of human experience and emotion, ultimately pointing us to Jesus. We’re in our thirteenth summer of “Christ in the Psalms.” This year will take us from Psalm 140 to Psalm 150.https://parkchurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Sermon_2024.08.11.m4a

This morning, we hosted pastor Leonel Pacheco from Fuente de Redención, our partner church in the Iztapalapa borough of Mexico City.
Leonel, his wife Myrna, and their two sons planted Fuente de Redención six years ago. They are “A church centered on the Gospel, growing in our love for Christ, His church, and Iztapalapa.”
With 1.8 million residents, Iztapalapa is the most populous borough of Mexico City. It is also one of the most socioeconomically depressed. Park Church was connected with the Pacheco family about three years ago through the Redeemer City to City network.

As humans, our foundational formation takes place within some sort of family system. We are discipled, whether with intentionality or not, into a way of life. Then at some point along the way we meet Jesus. When we put our faith in Him, we are reconciled to God and brought into His family. But how do we relate to His other children, and why do relationships remain so difficult? In this series, we’ll look to Jesus to learn how we can grow in love for one another as brothers and sisters in the family of God.https://parkchurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Sermon_2028.01.28.m4a

In this series, we’ll look to Jesus to learn how we can grow in love for one another as brothers and sisters in the family of God.https://parkchurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Sermon_2024.01.21.m4a
As humans, our foundational formation takes place within some sort of family system. We are discipled, whether with intentionality or not, into a way of life.

A homily from our time of worship and prayer in-between years.https://parkchurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Sermon_2023.12.31.m4a
As you celebrate today, we wanted to share a few tools for individual or family worship. Everyone observes this day differently—fit as much or as little of this into your day as you’d like!
Read or WatchLuke 2:1–20 In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. This was the first registration when Quirinius was governor of Syria. And all went to be registered, each to his own town. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, to be registered with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child. And while they were there, the time came for her to give birth. And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.
And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying,
“Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!”
When the angels went away from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go over to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.” And they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in a manger. And when they saw it, they made known the saying that had been told them concerning this child. And all who heard it wondered at what the shepherds told them. But Mary treasured up all these things, pondering them in her heart. And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.

KIDS: Jesus Storybook Bible Christmas StoryPray“Celebrating Together on Christmas Morning” from “Words for Winter” by the Austin StoneLEADER/PARENT:
Wonder upon wonder, Christmas morning is here:
tree trimmed, decorated, and gifts in tow.
We gather together, anticipating delights and traditions,
preparing our hearts to both give and receive.
Let the symbols and celebration of Christmas morning-exchanging gifts,
opening stockings, and reading about Santa-
turn our heads and hearts to the better story of Jesus birth and eminent reign.
PEOPLE/OTHERS:
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good,
for His steadfast love endures forever.
LEADER:
We give to each other with generosity,
like the bishop Saint Nicolas did to the poor and needy.
For we were once poor and needy,
but now are rich in faith and heirs to God’s kingdom.
Because God sent Jesus, born of woman, born under the law,
so our status as poor and needy orphans might change to righteous, adopted children.
PEOPLE:
We love each other in generosity because You first loved us.
For the Lord takes thought of us.
You are our Help and our Deliverer, O Lord.
Your generosity toward us
is abundant and immeasurable.
LEADER:
We recount the nativity and remember with all the saints
how from the foundation of the world,
You, O Lord, have been weaving a glorious story, reconciling a people to Yourself:
how Mary and Joseph trusted You,
how the angels declared the good news to the shepherds,
and how the wise men brought gifts to Jesus, because He is King and worthy of worship.
PEOPLE:
For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given.
His mercy is for those who fear Him from generation to generation,
and His kingdom will know no end.
LEADER:
He is calling a people to Himself,
from every tribe, tongue, and nation,
and while we celebrate His kingship around a Christmas tree this morning,
we will celebrate with final rejoicing around His throne when He returns again.
PEOPLE:
So, until we see Him face to face, we will give thanks to the God of Heaven,
for His steadfast love endures forever.
ALL:
Amen.

A semiannual rhythm at Park Church is a revisiting of our vision for discipleship to Jesus with a focus on a particular practice to that end. Over four Sundays this fall, we’ll focus on the “Be with Jesus” aspect of discipleship through the practice of prayer. Prayer is perhaps the most fundamental characteristic of a disciple of Jesus. The core of Jesus’ mission was to reconcile us to God so that we might enjoy Him and be empowered and transformed by His daily presence in our lives. At the heart of our relationship with Him is the privilege of being able to relate with God as our Father.

Every summer at Park Church, we spend several weeks in the Psalms. The Psalms give us a vocabulary and a “hymnal” for relating to God through the full range of human experience and emotion, ultimately pointing us to Jesus. This summer, we’ll continue with Psalms 130–139.

We routinely take a few Sundays in a row to focus on our mission as a church: we exist to make disciples of Jesus for the glory of God and the joy of all people. Though many of Park Church’s people may know those words, discussing their “why” in detail helps us know where we’re going together.
This year, we want to focus on five practical areas where the mission of God propels us to live in particular ways:
- The Global Mission of God (January 8)
- Hospitality and Neighboring (January 15)
- Restorative Justice (January 22)
- Faith and Work (January 29)
- Sharing the Good News (February 5)
While no one is called to simultaneously grow and serve equally in every area of the Christian life, there are likely one or two areas that God may invite you into throughout the series. We invite you to pray through and consider the areas of focus above and what that might mean for you.

https://parkchurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Sermon_2022.12.18.m4aThe Second Coming of Christ is a fundamental Christian conviction, promised by Scripture and professed by followers of Christ throughout history. Though now often neglected or misunderstood, the promise of Jesus’ return remains vital.
Culturally, we can be horrible at waiting. Quick “fixes” are everywhere and easily-accessible comforts can dilute our felt need for all things to be made new. But there is brokenness that will go unfixed and pain that will go unhealed until Christ comes again.
The Second Coming was never meant to be a sidebar or peripheral doctrine, but a central one that we uphold, rehearse and celebrate. Scripture reflects this truth:
“Baptism is mentioned 19 times in seven Epistles, and in 14 out of 21 it is not alluded to. The Lord’s Supper is only referred to three or four times in the entire New Testament… The Lord’s Coming is referred to in one verse out of every 13 in the New Testament, and in the Epistles alone in one verse out of 10. This proportion is surely of importance, for if frequency of mention is any criterion there is scarcely any other truth of equal interest and value.”
(W. H. Griffith-Thomas in “The Principles of Theology”)
This Advent, we’re excited to focus together on Jesus’ return and why it matters to our lives as Christians.

This proportion is surely of importance, for if frequency of mention is any criterion there is scarcely any other truth of equal interest and value.”
(W. H. Griffith-Thomas in “The Principles of Theology”)
This Advent, we’re excited to focus together on Jesus’ return and why it matters to our lives as Christians.
https://parkchurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Sermon_2022.11.27.m4aThe Second Coming of Christ is a fundamental Christian conviction, promised by Scripture and professed by followers of Christ throughout history. Though now often neglected or misunderstood, the promise of Jesus’ return remains vital.
Culturally, we can be horrible at waiting. Quick “fixes” are everywhere and easily-accessible comforts can dilute our felt need for all things to be made new. But there is brokenness that will go unfixed and pain that will go unhealed until Christ comes again.
The Second Coming was never meant to be a sidebar or peripheral doctrine, but a central one that we uphold, rehearse and celebrate. Scripture reflects this truth:
“Baptism is mentioned 19 times in seven Epistles, and in 14 out of 21 it is not alluded to. The Lord’s Supper is only referred to three or four times in the entire New Testament… The Lord’s Coming is referred to in one verse out of every 13 in the New Testament, and in the Epistles alone in one verse out of 10. This proportion is surely of importance, for if frequency of mention is any criterion there is scarcely any other truth of equal interest and value.”

Jesus Christ came into this world not first and foremost to redeem from our hard circumstances, but to redeem us from our hard hearts. He is revealed as the triumphant king, but not at all the kind we expected.

For all of their notoriety, most people are very unfamiliar with who Jesus' disciples actually were. Here, Matthew formally lists the twelve apostles by name in a way that highlights a few different aspects of the type community Jesus had come to build.

Jesus has certainly come to heal and transform individuals through His love and power, but He also commissions His followers to be agents of His healing power and love in a world that is ripe for a new kind of Kingdom and a new kind of King.

Jesus heals the daughter of one of the rulers in their society, a woman with a stigmatized blood disease, men who were blind, and a man who was mute and demon-possessed. All of these stories highlight the power of Jesus to bring healing and restoration to anyone who believes.

While Jesus' arrival should have been celebrated, the meaning and joy of His arrival was missed by those who had lost sight of the meaning and purpose behind their religious practices—the hope of God’s presence with His people. Jesus had come to be that presence and to bring the dawn of a new age, and that meant everything was about to change.

Jesus brings us into another aspect of His character and His mission: He is a merciful King who enjoys fellowship with the poor in spirit. This is why He came, to welcome into His Kingdom those who fully own their brokenness and turn to Him for mercy.

To show the legitimacy of His authority and the scope of His mission, Jesus not only forgives the man’s sins, but also restores his body and his place within the community. In this act, Jesus is showing that He truly is the Son of God, who has the power and the authority to heal and transform people from the inside out.
After two weeks’ break for Palm Sunday and Easter, we’re back into Matthew Part III, week 7: “Jesus, Friends, and Forgiveness.”
As our first joint series with Park Church Highlands, we’re excited to jump into the book of Matthew. Since Highlands is in Part III of this series, our first sermon in Matthew will be a recap of the rest of the series to-date.

Jesus is breaking down some of the most substantial political, religious, and social barriers of the day by healing people outside of Israel’s religious boundary markers. Jesus has not come merely as the Messiah of Israel, but He has come to be the Savior of the World, bringing reconciliation and restoration to all who turn to Him in faith
Instead of moving away from the unclean man as would have been expected, Jesus moves toward him and touches him. Instead of becoming impure, Jesus’s purity is transferred to the man, and He is cleansed. In this response, we see Jesus’ compassion toward the hurting, His power to heal, and His desire to restore people to the merciful presence of God and His people.
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus gives instructions for a flourishing life under the reign of God. As famous as this sermon may be, many will hear the teachings of Jesus—or even admire the words of Jesus— without putting them into practice.
Watch or re-watch the 6:30pm Ash Wednesday Service WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 17 • 6:30PM Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, the season of forty days leading up to Good Friday and Easter. The day reminds us of our sinfulness, our mortality, and the hope that is ours in Jesus.
Although the way of life that Jesus offers is beautiful, it is a challenging way to take because it is at odds with the sinful desires of our hearts and the lifestyle of the crowds who reject the wisdom of Jesus and continue toward destruction (the other “road”).
Next week we’ll start Matthew Part III (where we’ll be all Spring). This week will be our last week of a related series, Matthew: The Gospel of the Kingdom, where we’re spending three weeks zooming out to get the big picture again.
A panel of Park Church staff and members discussed Park Church Downtown and responded to questions.
Before we start Matthew Part 3 (where we’ll be all Spring), we’re spending three weeks zooming out to get the big picture again. This is the second week of "Matthew: The Gospel of the Kingdom."
Before we start Matthew Part 3 (where we’ll be all Spring), we’re spending three weeks zooming out to get the big picture again. This is week one of “Matthew: The Gospel of the Kingdom.” During this message, we’ll also here an announcement about Park Church Downtown.
This Spring, Grace City Church, which meets at the Asterisk Building downtown, will merge into our church family, and Park Church will become one church with two congregations. Listen to a conversation between Gary McQuinn and Ryan Gannett as they seek to answer some anticipated FAQs, or visit parkchurch.org/downtown to read these questions and others in long-form or to submit your own question.
Over the first three weeks of this year, we will share three Pastoral Words that we pray will guide our church family into the New Year.

Over the first three weeks of this year, we will share three Pastoral Words that we pray will guide our church family into the New Year. Our first word is from James 1:2–4: God's work in us as we encounter troubles.
Jesus’ birth is also known as the “first Advent.” While we joyfully celebrated this day, we are still waiting for the second Advent—when Jesus return. The Bible promises us that Jesus is coming back and that He will make right all the things that are broken in our world; that He will redeem the world […]
Jesus came quietly into the world. Though He came humbly, He came as the fulfillment of everything we’ve longed for.
Our souls long to see beauty. The echoes of God’s beauty are all around us and we long to see it fully; we long to find it at the source.
It is normal for us to search for meaning and purpose through some sort of spirituality. This desire is an echo of God’s voice as we long to know Him, to have faith in Him, and to be in union with Him.
We search for relationships and connections with others. We want to be seen and valued; known and loved. We seek out relationships with others because God created us for relationships. This desire is an echo of God’s voice calling us into a relationship with Him.
He has put the longing for justice within us. This longing is an echo of His voice; His design. We desire justice because God is just, and He is the only One who can make things right.
His Kingdom is to be a realm where people treat one another with the honor, dignity, care, and love that they themselves desire. It’s a beautiful vision for life, and one that we all fall woefully short of. And that’s why Jesus came.
Over time, we learn to value what He values and to trust that He always provides what is good for us, even when it doesn’t make sense from our vantage point.
When you have done the hard work to get an honest assessment of yourself and your own need for spectacular mercy, you may be in a better position to lovingly support others on their journey toward the healing and transformative love of God.
Last week we considered Jesus’ teaching on anxiety. In the context, Jesus is teaching that faith in God’s Eternal Kingdom and His Fatherly care sets us free from the anxiety that comes from living for material things. The truth is easy to understand, but it can be challenging and complicated to apply.
You have a heavenly Father who is paying attention to your life and who will provide all that you really need to experience the life that is truly life.
Jesus is calling people into a Kingdom where God is known as the true and eternal source of security and love. God Himself is the treasure our hearts long for, and living for His Kingdom brings indestructible joy.
Reflections, appeals, and testimonies from part two of the Love Your Neighbor Seminar on Monday, October 12, 2020.
Positional clarification and Gospel centering on the issue of Racial Justice from part one of the Love Your Neighbor Seminar on Monday, October 11, 2020.
Fasting is not to earn God’s love. Rather, it is an expression of a hunger to know and experience more of the Father’s power and love towards His children.
This life-transforming invitation to commune and converse with your heavenly Father lies at the heart of what Jesus came to provide for His followers. He came to reconcile us to God.
This teaching marks the beginning of a new section in the Sermon on the Mount. The focus of this section is the call to pay attention to your inner motives for good works…
What does it mean to love our neighbor through engagement in the political sphere? What does it look like to love people we disagree with?
He came while we were sinners, indeed, while we were enemies. Christ died for us as a transformative demonstration of the love of our Father in Heaven. At its core, the Kingdom of God is a Kingdom of love.
We hit pause on Christ in the Psalms to turn our attention to racial injustice as seen through the lens of the story of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10.
We gathered with Fellowship Denver on Friday, April 14 to remember the death of Christ. That following Sunday, we celebrated as all the powers of hell gave way to the power of Jesus as He defeated death forever, rising again.
These events are critical for us. The death of Christ was atonement for our sin against Him. His suffering takes place in place of ours. His seperation from the Father on that cross prevents us from ever being separated from the Father. Likewise, His resurrection is our proof that, just as He rose, so shall we who are in Christ. Just as we sing in the Easter Hymn Christ The Lord is Risen Today, “Made like Him, like Him we rise; ours the cross, the grave, the skies.”
