    God First | Return | Aaron Pennington - Lead Pastor

    What are we still holding back from God? In God First, Pastor Aaron Pennington continues Return with a message about stewardship, generosity, surrender, and what it means to truly put God first. Jesus taught that where our treasure is, our heart will follow. This message challenges us to stop giving God our leftovers and instead return our first and best to the One who already owns it all. From Matthew 6 and the parable of the talents to Malachi 3 and the example of Cain and Abel, Pastor Aaron shows that biblical generosity is ultimately not a money issue. It’s a heart issue. Scripture: Romans 6, Matthew 6:19-24, Luke 12:15, Matthew 13, 1 Timothy 6, Deuteronomy 14:23, Exodus 23:19, Hebrews 11:4, Genesis 14:20, Genesis 28, Matthew 23:23, Malachi 3:6-10, John 3:16.

    The Return of Christ | Return | Aaron Pennington - Lead Pastor

    What does the Bible say about the return of Christ, and what should it change about the way we live today? In Week 2 of Return, Pastor Aaron Pennington traces God’s story of redemption from Genesis to Revelation and explains why followers of Jesus can look toward Christ’s return with hope rather than fear. From Jesus’ promise in John 14 to the new heaven and new earth in Revelation 21-22, this message explores what it means to live in “the land between two trees,” with limited time and a continuing opportunity to invite others into the saving grace of Jesus. Pastor Aaron also looks at Matthew 24 and 1 Thessalonians 5, challenging the church not to become spiritually complacent, but to stay awake, live with urgency, and remain focused on the mission Jesus has given us. Scripture: John 3:16-18, John 14:1-3, Revelation 21:1-5, Revelation 22:1-2, Matthew 24:3-8, Matthew 24:14, 1 Thessalonians 5:1-6.

    Return Vision | Return | Aaron Pennington - Lead Pastor

    In Week One of Return, Pastor Aaron Pennington shares the vision behind the next season of Trace Church and why Return is about much more than a building. Pastor Aaron reflects on what God has done through Trace Church, shares updates about the future Union Drive location, and explains the calling he believes God has placed on the church to reach more people with the gospel of Jesus in Colorado Springs. Through Acts 2, Acts 4, fasting, prayer, sacrifice, and generosity, Pastor Aaron challenges the church to ask a deeper question: before God does something through us, what does He want to do in us? Return is a call back to surrender, obedience, biblical community, generosity, urgency, and ultimately Jesus.

    Courage When God Seems Absent | The Story of Esther | Dr. Trent Langhofer - Teaching Pastor

    How do we find courage when we cannot see God working? Dr. Trent Langhofer teaches through the story of Esther, a book where God is never directly named, yet His hand can be seen throughout the entire story. In Esther 4:13–16, Esther is invited to act courageously without any guarantee of the outcome. In Esther 6:1–11, a sleepless night, a forgotten act of faithfulness, and the perfect timing of a conversation reveal how God can work through ordinary circumstances. Esther 9:20–22 shows God turning a day marked for destruction into a celebration of deliverance. This message gives three practical truths for seasons when God seems absent: Trust His presence when you cannot see His hand. Choose faithfulness when you cannot control the outcome. Live in the joy of God’s redemption plan. Romans 8:28 does not say that everything that happens is good. It promises that God can work in all things for the good of those who love Him. And because of the cross and resurrection of Jesus, we know that sorrow will not have the final word. You may not understand the chapter you are living, but you can still trust the Author.

    The Word of Their Testimony | Kingdom First | Jayson French - Guest Speaker

    What if your testimony is exactly what someone else needs to hear? In this message, Jayson French, President of Christ In Youth (CIY), explores the power of personal testimony through Scripture and practical application. Looking at stories like the Gerasene demoniac, the Samaritan woman, and Revelation 12:11, he encourages believers to be prepared to share how Jesus has worked in their lives. Our stories don’t save people, but they faithfully point others to the One who does. Jayson French has spent more than two decades serving in student ministry and now leads Christ In Youth (CIY), partnering with churches to help the next generation follow Jesus and live on mission.

    Get Out of the Chair and Get Into the Fight | Kingdom First | Joshua Means - Guest Speaker

    What has God placed in your hands, and are you using it for His Kingdom? Joshua Means from The Solomon Foundation continues our Kingdom First series with a message from Matthew 25 and the Parable of the Talents. Through the picture of a comfortable chair and a pair of boots ready for battle, he challenges us to move beyond comfort and faithfully steward our time, talents, and treasure. God has given every person something meaningful to contribute. The invitation is to take a step of faith, join the mission, and use what He has entrusted to us to help more people encounter Jesus.

    Lost and Found | Kingdom First | Taylor Hunt - Guest Speaker

    Jesus came to seek and save the lost. In the opening week of Kingdom First, guest speaker Taylor Hunt walks through Luke 15 and the stories of the lost sheep, lost coin, and lost son. Every story reveals the same truth: one more person matters to God. Taylor challenges us to remain amazed by grace, resist becoming comfortable, and remember that the Church is a rescue mission for people who desperately need hope. No matter what someone has done or how far they have run, the grace of Jesus is still for them. Taylor and his wife, Daylie, are planting City Hope Church in Denver, Colorado, with plans to launch in January 2027.

    Tell Me More About... America | Tell Me More About | Dr. Trent Langhofer - Teaching Pastor

    How should followers of Jesus think about America, freedom, patriotism, and politics? In this Fourth of July weekend message, Dr. T teaches on biblical citizenship, reminding us that before we are citizens of any nation, we are citizens of the Kingdom of God. Christians are called to love their country, pray for their leaders, seek the good of their communities, and stay deeply surrendered to Jesus. We salute the flag, but we surrender to the cross. Scripture References:Genesis 1:27Deuteronomy 19:15Leviticus 19:15Jeremiah 17:9Romans 3:10Philippians 3:20Jeremiah 29:4-71 Timothy 2:1-21 Peter 2:17Matthew 5:13-16Luke 9:23
