Lead Pastor Dale C. Fredrickson was 15 years old when his dad died from cancer -- a tragedy that set his life on a trajectory that he never could have imagined. Through the church, he found a living relationship with God that continues to surprise him with hope and healing. He found his calling to be a caring presence to those in need and teach the Bible and Theology with creativity and passion. Through his teaching and writing, he takes the rich traditions of Christian faith -- and all of the doubts, wonderings, pains and joys of the human heart -- to help people think about faith in fresh and new ways. He is currently a Ph.D. candidate in the Philosophy of Religion and Theology program at Claremont Graduate University, and has a master's degree in from Iliff School of Theology in Biblical Studies. When he isn't listening to others, teaching, or writing he loves spending time with his wife and their three children. |

Pastor Izzy, our first ever Pastor of New Ministries and Communications, is currently working on her Master’s in Divinity at the Iliff School of Theology. She has been working in digital ministry for the past several years, exploring new means of connection and community-building. Pastor Izzy is excited to see what the future of the church holds as we learn together what it means to be Christian and follow the teachings of Jesus, especially in the ways that we can live into his message of equality and social justice. Born and raised in Denver, Pastor Izzy loves taking full advantage of everything our wonderful city has to offer— especially when it comes to food. When not eating or studying, she sews historical clothing, reads with her fiancé, Eric, and walks their dog, Adelaide, around City Park.
