For over 13 years TNL has provided a unique opportunity on Tuesdays for hundreds of people to come together to experience a connection with God and His Church. But The Next Level Church extends beyond just a Tuesday night.
Because we come from every part of the Denver Metro area we intentionally connect with others in our area through Home Groups. These groups provide a relational and conversational experience with the church. The groups are geographically-based, which allows you to interact with others in various life stages – married, single, students, parents, young and old. Through Home Groups we discover the basis for community is our interaction with TNL and our relationship with Christ.
Beyond Tuesdays and in Home Groups on Sundays, TNLC gathers based on the Christian calendar (Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter) to participate in Church rhythms shared world wide. Other gatherings are based on our own community rhythms which include summer picnics, a fall retreat, and a variety of annual celebrations.
Those who call TNL “home” come from a variety of faith and religious backgrounds. We each bring a valued perspective and together are learning what life looks like as a follower of Christ. One thing we are certain of, our faith is not to be separated from our everyday life. We want every aspect of our life to be impacted by our faith – our families and friends, our workdays and weekends. Our goal is not to cram schedules with church activities, instead we desire to provide space for relationships and creativity.
The events and opportunities we design are ways for us to invite conversation and engage culture. From serving meals at teen and homeless shelters to hosting bands and recording music, from working with children in Nepal to mentoring students in seminary – everything is a way for us as a community to reflect God’s heart for the world.
The community of TNLC continues to grow in many ways. The children of TNLC are an important part of our church. We strive to teach, care for, and develop community for our kids with creativity and passion through first:link, our Children’s Ministry on Tuesday. Children are also a welcome part of each of our Home Groups so that they can see a holistic faith modeled by adults in their community. We are committed to continue toward making TNLC a more family friendly community as we believe the church should be a place of support and strength for the family.
Life at TNL is well… real life. Whatever your life may currently hold, we hope you make the space where you can connect with God. If there is any way we can encourage you in that, please contact us, or better yet, come share life with us.
