Again and again, we see people running from God. We hide in shame, numb our pain, grasp for control, or build lives that do not require trust in God.

Yet the greater story is this: God never stops coming after us.

This series explores the many ways we flee through busyness, religion, addiction, self-sufficiency, distraction, and denial, and the relentless love of a God who refuses to let us go.

Each week, we will name the places we hide, the lies we believe, and the fears that drive us away. We will also encounter a God who runs after us, chasing us with love and mercy, and offering us a way home.

Because the good news is not that we finally find God. It is that God never stopped looking for us.

Everything we have is a gift from a God who gives freely, joyfully, and abundantly.
Throughout Scripture, God invites His people to see reality through the lens of His generous character rather than the myth of scarcity.

This series traces the theme of abundance in Scripture, confronting the lies that turn us inward and receiving again the life of trust, generosity, and open-handedness that Jesus models and makes possible.

Fear of not having enough, fear of losing control, fear of running out, fear that we must secure our own lives. Scripture tells a very different story:

Listen to this week's sermon, kicking off our new Advent Series: God is Not Far Off. 

But life with God is not about performance — it’s about presence. This is the life we were made for: To abide in and enjoy God’s presence. To know and be known by God. To love and be loved by Him. To walk daily with Jesus in the midst of our actual life.

So the invitation is to step off the exhausting treadmill of trying to prove ourselves and learn to rest in the love and grace of God.

As a church, our mission is simple: we invite people to enjoy life with God.  In this series, through our study of the Gospel of John, we’ll explore how to live this out day by day.

Grow in your awareness of God’s presence.  Find freedom, rest, and joy in Christ’s unfailing love.  And extend to others an invitation into the gracious, welcoming presence of God.

This summer, we’re inviting you into a different way of thinking about growth—one that doesn’t start with hustle or self-help. It starts with the Holy Spirit. 

For 9 weeks we’ll explore the fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5—love, joy, peace, patience, and more. We’ll ask honest questions, listen for good news, and discover how these traits actually grow in our real lives.

Together we’ll see that change is less about strain and will power, and more about staying connected to the source.  Because the fruit of the Spirit is not a checklist to perform, but a picture of what Jesus is like.

You’re not alone. A lot of us hit points in life where we wonder: Why am I still like this?  Whether it’s a short fuse, a distracted heart, or a low-grade grumpiness that won’t quit… we start asking: “How do I actually change?” Do we just grit our teeth and try harder? Buy another book? Download a productivity app? Yell affirmations into the mirror?

In this 10-week series, we’ll walk through Paul’s letter to the Colossians and see how the gospel speaks into our world today—challenging the norms, reordering our priorities, and calling us into a deeper, more resilient hope. This is a hope that doesn’t just comfort, but transforms—shaping us into a community rooted in Christ’s love.

But Scripture tells a different story. A story of being created in love by God. We are creatures made to live in dependency of a loving Creator. We are finite, limited creatures. Made to know and worship our Creator. Though we ran from God, God didn’t give up on us. Though we rejected God and wanted to be God ourselves, God’s love for us never quit. What does it mean to embrace our role as beloved creatures of our God? To embrace our own humanity– in need of limits, rest, and mercy? To rest in the arms of our Creator?

Pause for a moment to reflect on your own life. What stands out to you? Where do you see signs of God’s presence? Take time to observe how He is moving in and through the world around you.

As Howard Baker reminds us, “To be contemplative is to notice reality.” Let this be your starting point—learning to truly see the ways in which God is at work.

Listen to this week's sermon, as we kick off our new sermon series, focusing on Genesis 28:1-4, 10-19. 

That’s the astonishing claim that Christians make: That the living God showed up in the flesh, becoming one of us. That the Creator of time stepped into history and was born in an impoverished village in the backwaters of the Roman Empire.  That God did all this, in the person of Jesus. For our rescue and healing. A promise fulfilled. A grace realized.

“The incarnation is a kind of vast joke whereby the Creator of the ends of the earth comes among us in diapers… Until we too have taken the idea of the God-man seriously enough to be scandalized by it, we have not taken it as seriously as it demands to be taken.”

— Frederick Buechner, Faces of Jesus

That’s the astonishing claim that Christians make: That the living God showed up in the flesh, becoming one of us. That the Creator of time stepped into history and was born in an impoverished village in the backwaters of the Roman Empire.  That God did all this, in the person of Jesus. For our rescue and healing. A promise fulfilled. A grace realized.

Read the Psalms and see how God invites the full expression of our experience, of our feelings, and of our desires. See the language of the psalmist: crying out and expressing joy. Songs of lament and songs of hope. Honest prayers, expressions of frustration, anger, trust, love, and praise.  All of it. All of it was brought before the Lord. And God desires that same thing from us. He desires us to bring all of ourselves before Him.

What’s the good life? And how do we pursue it? In Jesus’ (arguably) most famous teaching, the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus invites us into the life of the Kingdom of God. For his first century hearers, all of their expectations and assumptions for where the good life with God was found were subverted and flipped on its head. It’s the same for us today. 

As we pursue life with God together, we are called to apprentice ourselves to Jesus. To be with Jesus, to learn from Jesus, how to live like Jesus. And here we are invited into the upside-down, countercultural way of Jesus.


Listen to this week's sermon focusing on Matthew 5:13-16, “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."

We look around and see things that are not right. Something within us says, “No, that’s not the way it’s supposed to be!” We believe that in Christ, God is setting the world right. As we follow the Risen Jesus into the world, what does it look like to participate in God’s mission of justice? 

May we live as agents of God's new creation: welcoming the stranger, caring for the vulnerable, loving the hurting and broken, proclaiming and demonstrating the Kingdom of God that has come and is yet to come.


Listen to this week's sermon focusing on Joel 2:28-32a, Acts 2:42-47. 


On the day of Pentecost, Peter quotes the prophet Joel declaring the Spirit is poured out. Men and Women. Young and Old. Even on my servants. The Spirit is poured out. 

We are called to be agents of new creation, empowered by the Spirit, living as signs and foretastes and instruments (Leslie Newbigin) of the life that is to come. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, we join God in God’s work of justice. For those early Christians, the Spirit poured out among them led them to a shared life around the table. 

Today, we celebrate the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Listen to this week's sermon focusing on Luke 14:1, 7-14.

What’s in it for me? It’s a simple question, a common question. But as participants in the Kingdom of God, Jesus moves us from an ethic of self-preservation or self-protection to a communal way of life marked by mutuality, reciprocity, and solidarity with others.

Listen to this week's sermon focusing on Leviticus 25:35-38 and Luke 4:17-19.

In Leviticus 25, God shows special concern for the poor. In Luke 4, Jesus declares that the Jubilee is fulfilled in him as good news is proclaimed to the poor. But sometimes ideals and axioms from the world block us from seeing the nature of the Kingdom of God and how to faithfully follow Jesus in Jesus’ concern for the poor. 

“My work with the poor and the incarcerated has persuaded me that the opposite of poverty is not wealth; the opposite of poverty is justice.” ― Bryan Stevenson

We look around and see things that are not right. Something within us says, “No, that’s not the way it’s supposed to be!” We believe that in Christ, God is setting the world right. As we follow the Risen Jesus into the world, what does it look like to participate in God’s mission of justice? 

May we live as agents of God's new creation: welcoming the stranger, caring for the vulnerable, loving the hurting and broken, proclaiming and demonstrating the Kingdom of God that has come and is yet to come.

God is a God of justice. To understand the redemptive arc of Scripture and our place in it, we must understand who God is and how God shows a special care for the vulnerable.  What does it mean that God is a God of justice? What is biblical justice? How does God show special care for the vulnerable?

Jesus’ resurrection was the inauguration of God’s new creation. As N.T. Wright says, “ A whole new world in which everything will be set right at last.” This week's message is an intro sermon tracing the story of God’s just world from creation (Genesis 1)  and what God intended for humanity through the reality of living in a fallen, unjust world all the way to new creation brought about in and through Jesus Christ. What was lost in the fall is being restored in Christ. 

For example, in Genesis 3, God asks, "Where are you?" and  "What have you done?" Let us sit with God in the searching questions. As we journey through Lent, let us make space for the Holy Spirit to lead us into deeper places of formation as we sit with these questions together.


Listen to this week's Easter message on John 20:1-2, 11-18 .


"Why are you crying?" 

“Will you allow Jesus’ question, “What are you looking for?” to lead you deeper into your heart? At first it may not be easy to find your way, especially if you have been living on the surface for a long while. To help you on this journey into the inner world of your desire and longings, you may need some help. Certainly you will need some silence and space…whatever effort is required, be assured it will be worthwhile. Just ask those two seekers in the Gospel of John— Jesus’s question completely changed the direction of their lives.” - Trevor Hudson 

For example, in Genesis 3, God asks, "Where are you?" and  "What have you done?" Let us sit with God in the searching questions. As we journey through Lent, let us make space for the Holy Spirit to lead us into deeper places of formation as we sit with these questions together.


Listen to this week's message on John 13:1-17.

Listen to this week's message on Matthew 16:13-16 and Matthew 21:1-11.


Who is this King who came riding into Jerusaelm on a donkey? Who is the humble king? Who do you say that Jesus is?

The crowds had an answer.

What is yours?


"Who do you say that I am?"

For example, in Genesis 3, God asks, "Where are you?" and  "What have you done?" Let us sit with God in the searching questions. As we journey through Lent, let us make space for the Holy Spirit to lead us into deeper places of formation as we sit with these questions together.


Listen to this week's message on John 1: 35-39.

Listen to this week's message on Genesis 32: 22-31.


“We must tell God our names and share with God who we really are and what we have done. Usually we want our relationship with God to work the other way around. Like Jacob, we want to know God’s name. Often this indicates that we want a take God whom we can manage for our ends. We do not want God to be too surprising or unpredictable or wild. Nor do we want to go into too many details about the mess in our lives. But that is not the way God works. If we want God to bless us, we need to face up to ourselves honestly.”- Trevor Hudson

For example, in Genesis 3, God asks, "Where are you?" and  "What have you done?" Let us sit with God in the searching questions. As we journey through Lent, let us make space for the Holy Spirit to lead us into deeper places of formation as we sit with these questions together.


Listen to this week's message on Genesis 16:1-15.


The God who sees me. God saw Hagar. The God of the vulnerable and the pushed aside. God sees her. And through his messenger, an angel, God asks, “Where have you come from? Where are you going?”

These are searching questions that lead us deeper into our own story and pain. 

“The angel of the Lord finds Hagar here in this unexpected place and asks her the best questions any friend, spouse, therapist, or pastor could ever ask someone about their life: Where do you come from? Where are you going? The voice of God is curious, and the ears of God incline to hear her trauma. The angel of the Lord directs Hagar to return to Sarai—which, I hasten to add, is in no way a biblical mandate to return to a relationship of abuse or trauma—and promises to bless her with a son and with descendants who will be too numerous to count. Hagar is so moved by this encounter and blessing that she is compelled to say, “El Roi,” meaning “the God who sees me.” This is remarkable. It is a stranger, a foreigner, who is the first person to name God in the Scriptures. Although her knowledge of Yahweh is exceedingly limited, Hagar recognizes that this God is concerned with her trauma and will move with compassion toward her.”- Jay Stringer

For example, in Genesis 3, God asks, "Where are you?" and  "What have you done?" Let us sit with God in the searching questions. 

As we journey through Lent, let us make space for the Holy Spirit to lead us into deeper places of formation as we sit with these questions together.

Listen to this week's message on Genesis 4:1-9.

Sin is sickness that leads to death. It’s a disease of selfishness that cuts us off not just from God but from each other. We turn away from others, but God asks us a deeper question: Where is your brother?

“You can ask God, “Lord, who is the suffering brother or sister that I need to recognize? To what human cry in my broader community must I listen? Where are you calling me to respond to the human need around me? Where can I contribute to the common good through prayer, protest, and practical action?” -Trevor Hudson 

For example, in Genesis 3, God asks, "Where are you?" and  "What have you done?" Let us sit with God in the searching questions. 

As we journey through Lent, let us make space for the Holy Spirit to lead us into deeper places of formation as we sit with these questions together.

Listen to this week's message on Genesis 3:1-13.

Where are you with God, these days?

Running?

Hiding?

Pretending?

Performing?

Avoiding?

May we sit with this question in the presence of God together. 

“This question [from Genesis 3] leads us into the searching heart of God. It reminds us that God always pursues us in love.” - Trevor Hudson 

For example, in Genesis 3, God asks, "Where are you?" and  "What have you done?" Let us sit with God in the searching questions. 

As we journey through Lent, let us make space for the Holy Spirit to lead us into deeper places of formation as we sit with these questions together.

Listen to Nova's Ash Wednesday message on Genesis 3:8-19. Ash Wed is a night of honesty. A night of coming face to face with the reality of death. For dust you are and to dust you will return. But God meets us here. “What is this you have done?” Grace finds us here. 

"God invites us to live generous lives because of who God is. Out of the overflow of God’s generosity, we are invited into a self-giving life." 

The story of Jesus’s birth is really a very ordinary, earthy story.  Jesus didn’t materialize out of thin air or fall like a comet from the sky.

Nothing flashy or eye-catching.  Something quite silent and hidden.

He was carried to term, given birth, nursed and nurtured by a human mother — just like each one of us. The astonishing claim is that this is the way God chose to come into our world!

Are we expecting God to work in us and through us?  If so, are we looking for God only in the spectacular and attention-getting?  Or are we expecting God in the common and ordinary, the silent and the hidden?

Listen to this week's sermon, the final part of our 2023 Advent series, as Chuck Fowler shares a message on the passages Luke 2:1-20 and Galatians 4:4-7- A message that reflects on the good news that God came down.



“Advent reminds us that it is waiting—not predictability and control—that has a central place in the Christian faith.”
– Sharon Hodde Miller

“Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.”
– Psalms 27:14

Nothing flashy or eye-catching.  Something quite silent and hidden.

He was carried to term, given birth, nursed and nurtured by a human mother — just like each one of us. The astonishing claim is that this is the way God chose to come into our world!

Are we expecting God to work in us and through us?  If so, are we looking for God only in the spectacular and attention-getting?  Or are we expecting God in the common and ordinary, the silent and the hidden?

Listen to this week's sermon, the second part of our 2023 Advent series, as Talya Bultema shares a message on the passage Luke 1:46-56.



“Advent reminds us that it is waiting—not predictability and control—that has a central place in the Christian faith.”
– Sharon Hodde Miller

“Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.”
– Psalms 27:14

Connection.  Companionship.  Friendship.  We all desire it.  And we all feel the struggle around it.

How do we connect with neighbors, coworkers, and others, cultivating authentic relationships with those around us everyday?  How can we cultivate a true sense of belonging, especially in a city as transitory as Denver?  Can our friendships become places of deep encounter with the Living Christ?

In this 7-week series on friendship, we will explore: why we need it, how we discount it, and the ways Jesus leads us towards greater connection.

In this curated conversation on the art and science of connection, Becky Lahna unpacks the essential value of friendship as an antidote to loneliness.  This conversation dives into what practical tools help to resist the pull towards isolation and build lasting human connections. How do we make friends in the fragmented, post-pandemic age we live in? Listen in to find out more. 

“Loneliness and isolation represent profound threats to our health and well-being. But we have the power to respond. By taking small steps every day to strengthen our relationships, and by supporting community efforts to rebuild social connection, we can rise to meet this moment together.”

Some things just seem to matter.  To everyone.  Things like beauty.  Or community.  Or justice.

We long for these things.  We crave them.  We have this intuition that they’re important and good and right.  Yet all too often they seem to lay beyond our reach.

What do we make of this?  Is it all a cruel joke?  Mere fantasy?  Or are these things actually signs — signs pointing to a greater meaning in the world?

All the previous signs point to Jesus’ work. When people see Jesus, they are moved to worship. Everyone we know is looking for a sign. A sign of where to find life, hope, rest, and peace.  We long to see hearts awakened in Christ, so we exist to invite everyone to enjoy life with Christ. To join God in his renewing work we invite everyone to enjoy life with God. 

Practice: Fixed Hour Prayer

“Signposts name a reality and point us in a direction.  Likewise, these … signposts name realities that all human cultures value as well as pointing beyond themselves to the meaning of life, to the meaning of the world.  They indicate, in fact, how we ought to ‘make sense’ of the world — how we ought to understand the way the world is and the challenge of being human within it.  The fact that we care about them and are puzzled by them is itself telling us something about the deep ‘sense’ of the world.” — Tom Wright

The fallout of sin is brokenness, a shattering of shalom. But Jesus is at work for wholeness. In our own stories, our brokenness and woundedness, Christ is restoring wholeness. He is putting the broken pieces back together. May the Spirit lead us in self-awareness as the Spirit forms us into our true selves in Christ-  To join God in his renewing work we make space for Holy Spirit’s transforming work.

Practice: Slowing Down

What does it look like when Jesus is on the move? As Jesus brings transformation, what should we expect to see? Our third sign of renewal is, “beauty.” What is beauty? How does beauty point to God? How do we participate in God’s renewing work as people who create and enjoy the beauty around us? What is the church known for in the US today? What if we were known as those who created beautiful things? What is required to create beauty in our cynical, consumeristic world? Who are the authors, chefs, artists, gardeners, architects, storytellers, poets, and musicians among us who can lead the way for us? 

Practice: Receiving Beauty

In this week's sermon, we dive into the question what does it look like when Jesus is on the move? As Jesus brings transformation, what should we expect to see? Our second sign of renewal is, “justice.”  We all feel the “wrongness” of our world. We long to see things set right. That’s exactly what God is doing in Christ Jesus. The church is called to participate in God’s justice- bringing justice to the marginalized and oppressed. To join God is His renewing work, we will seek justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God.

This week's spiritual practice is lament.

In this week's sermon, we dive into the question what does it look like when Jesus is on the move? As Jesus brings transformation, what should we expect to see? Our first sign of renewal is, “community.”  In Christ, we become united with one another. Dividing walls fall away. Healing takes place in community. To join God in his renewing work we seek to cultivate community wherever we go.

This week's spiritual practice is "hospitality."

“Signposts name a reality and point us in a direction.  Likewise, these … signposts name realities that all human cultures value as well as pointing beyond themselves to the meaning of life, to the meaning of the world.  They indicate, in fact, how we ought to ‘make sense’ of the world — how we ought to understand the way the world is and the challenge of being human within it.  The fact that we care about them and are puzzled by them is itself telling us something about the deep ‘sense’ of the world.” — Tom Wright

What do we make of this?  Is it all a cruel joke?  Mere fantasy?  Or are these things actually signs — signs pointing to a greater meaning in the world?

In this week's sermon, we dive into the question as to how the church plays a role in God's renewing work in us and around us. Our life together is meant to be a sign pointing to the reality of God’s healing and renewing work in Christ. 

“The question which has to be put to every local congregation is the question whether it is a credible sign of God’s reign in justice and mercy over the whole of life, whether it is an open fellowship whose concerns are as wide as the concerns of humanity, whether it cares for its neighbors in a way which reflect and springs out of God’s care for them, whether its common life is recognizable as a foretaste of the blessing which God intends for the whole human family.”- Leslie Newbigin

This week's spiritual practice is implementing the "welcoming prayer." 
"We are open to the love and presence of God’s healing action within.  Amen."

“Signposts name a reality and point us in a direction.  Likewise, these … signposts name realities that all human cultures value as well as pointing beyond themselves to the meaning of life, to the meaning of the world.  They indicate, in fact, how we ought to ‘make sense’ of the world — how we ought to understand the way the world is and the challenge of being human within it.  The fact that we care about them and are puzzled by them is itself telling us something about the deep ‘sense’ of the world.” — Tom Wright

In this week's sermon, we kick off an 8-week teaching series, “Looking For A Sign."  We’ll unpack these themes, through the lens of the Christian scriptures, and look at how each points us to the reality that Jesus is making all things new.  We’ll also discuss how these themes connect directly to the vision and DNA of Nova Church.

This week's spiritual practice is noticing. We will dive into the question "Where have I seen Jesus at work in my life, around me, or in our world?"

“Signposts name a reality and point us in a direction.  Likewise, these … signposts name realities that all human cultures value as well as pointing beyond themselves to the meaning of life, to the meaning of the world.  They indicate, in fact, how we ought to ‘make sense’ of the world — how we ought to understand the way the world is and the challenge of being human within it.  The fact that we care about them and are puzzled by them is itself telling us something about the deep ‘sense’ of the world.” — Tom Wright

Is it even possible to slow down enough to hear a better, truer voice?

This summer our teaching series is a deep dive into the spiritual practice of Sabbath.  In our treadmill culture today, this may be the most neglected spiritual practice, and also the most countercultural — and the most desperately needed!

Discover with us the richness and abundance of the Sabbath — more than a command, but a sign of God’s new creation and an invitation into the very life of God.

We live in a restless, exhausted age.  Voices all around us demand, “Work harder!” “Fit more into your hours!” “Get more!” “Be more!” “Do more!”

In a restless, exhausted age, what does it mean to be a Sabbath people belonging to the Lord of Sabbath? 

“Sabbath served as a regular reminder that God has given himself to his people, a regular call to trust him and rest in him, and with this, a regular means to enter his presence and experience the realities of life lived under him as King and Father." -Lord of Time: Living in the Rest and Reign of God (an ECO theological document) 

This summer, may we discover the richness and abundance of the Sabbath- more than simply a command, but a sign of God’s new creation and an invitation into the very life of God.

Are you the One? It’s the question on the mind of John the Baptist. And so he sends his disciples to ask Jesus himself. Are you the One to come or should we expect someone else?

What is the correct context, proper pathway, the needed nexus of circumstances for us to experience God. 

Maybe we just can’t imagine God coming into the mess that is our life. Into the mess that is our world. 

What is the setting in which God comes to us? How does Christ enter in?

Pastor Katie Fowler preaches during our Christmas Eve on Capitol Hill service.  Nova Church hosted this event in partnership with Corona Presbyterian Church. It was a casual, family-friendly service combining traditional candle lighting, classic Christmas carols and hymns, and a relevant and uplifting message.
