Honest questions about Jesus, asked in Colorado Springs.

Colorado Springs has a large church presence, which means people have sometimes heard more religious language than honest answers. We can talk plainly about the sinner’s prayer, money, leadership, predestination, church hurt, and whether following Jesus changes Tuesday afternoon.

Military turnover shapes friendships around Fort Carson and Peterson Space Force Base. Downtown and the Westside carry visible housing pressure; Southeast Colorado Springs has strong neighborhoods often overlooked by north-side conversations. A deployment can leave one parent carrying school, meals, and emergencies alone. Winter exposure, family homelessness, older-adult isolation, and the long drive across town all create moments when a reliable person matters.

Colorado Springs stretches from the old Westside beneath the foothills to Briargate and the fast-growing east, with Fort Carson and Peterson families regularly packing and unpacking. Pikes Peak is a shared landmark. Daily life can still be surprisingly disconnected.

We follow Jesus in small, local gatherings that can survive deployment schedules and snow. Read, eat, pray, help someone, baptize believers, and teach each other to obey Jesus. Nobody is paid and nobody takes an offering.
