I am passionate about making gospel connections and engaging with culture through great films and literature. I enjoy hanging out with my wife and three young boys and seeing how God uses the family unit to reach Aurora and the ends of the earth for His kingdom. In my downtime, I enjoy reading and learning new things. - Ask me for a book recommendation!

After 20 years of service in the U.S. Air Force, Brian has seen a lot, from small-town America to bustling big cities. This diverse journey has given him a unique perspective on the power of the local church and a heart for building Christ-like character in every community he touches. If you’re looking for Brian, you’ll likely find him in the middle of a conversation. He loves people and believes the church should be the most welcoming place in town. 

Now navigating a busy career in the tech industry and raising a family, Brian knows how important it is to slow down. He’s a fan of the simple life— sharing a meal, hanging out in the backyard, or heading up to the mountains to reset.

Chris is married and the grateful dad of three kids. Jesus saved him during a season when he was searching for truth, and that rescue continues to shape everything he does.
He serves as a Pastor/Elder at Calvary Restoration, where he loves teaching God’s Word and walking with people as they grow in Christ. Outside of ministry, you’ll usually find him spending time with his family, coaching, playing or watching sports and enjoying music. 

Chris is passionate about helping others discover the same life-changing truth he found in Jesus and becoming joyful, passionate disciples.

Skye is one of the pastor Elders of Calvary Restoration with a love for theology, a head for philosophy, and a steady hand for acrylics. When he isn't teaching, training or running AV, he’s likely contemplating the mysteries of the universe over a neat pour of whiskey. He invites anyone to join him for a chat about faith, philosophy, or the best way to color a canvas, just don't ask him to choose between them.

TJ Swanson finds great joy in the opportunity to serve Calvary Restoration as an elder. He believes healthy churches are God’s ordinary means of leading his people to the infinite blessings of the gospel, and loves contributing to that cause in whatever way he can. TJ is a learner to the core — and is always eager to read books and have discussions that increase collective understanding of God, his word, and his world. 

Day to day he provides dental care at his office in Aurora (he’s always happy to give second opinions!), pursues his impossible pipe dream of becoming a professional pickleball player, and, most importantly, happily spends time with his wife and three kids. 

Deb has been with Calvary Restoration since its inception. She had no idea what a church plant was at the time, but realized it took a dependence upon God to show an early church what to do. Her prayer life grew exponentially. They relied on each other to do what was required, and she thrived. She was no longer just going to church; she was the church! She is now a Deacon who serves on the Hospitality and Prayer Teams, but her favorite thing to do is to lead a Discipleship, Nurturing, and Accountability (DNA) group once a year. ​

Jeremy, a Deacon at Calvary Restoration, serves on the financial team, manages the budget, assists in AV Sundays, and occasionally takes on the role of a journeymen photographer. Outside of his church duties, he cherishes quality time with his family, engages in meaningful conversations around a campfire, enjoys hiking, reading, and occasionally indulges in video games

With a passion for spiritual growth, Jodi serves Calvary Restoration across multiple departments, including Women’s Ministry, A/V, our Connections Team, and collaborates with women from other CFC churches. She is driven by helping individuals recognize and celebrate their God-given identity.
Her personal mission extends into her professional life as a Life Coach and a spiritual mentor for professional athletes. At home, Jodi is a dedicated mother and active school volunteer. To recharge, she leans into her creative side, enjoying various craft projects that reflect her love for making things new.​​​​

Genevieve previously served in campus ministry with Athletes in Action NorCal where she developed a deep love for building Christ centered relationships and creating spaces where people feel welcomed. She enjoys creating environments where people can gather, grow in their faith, and experience authentic community. Outside of her role, Genevieve loves cooking for others, getting outside in the Colorado sunshine, and serving her home as a wife and mother. 

Tanner works from home as a wife, mother, and editor for Desiring God. She loves that God’s word can become sweet to the tastebuds of adults and children alike. If she isn’t reading, she’s building castle-forts for her toddlers, running around the neighborhood, or baking (with chocolate, without fruit). One of the joys of her family’s life is belonging to the body of Christ at Calvary Restoration.

Matthew, male 32, gets a kick out of seeing people walk in true authenticity with God and with each other, and he is stoked that his role as the worship ministry leader lets him use music and prayer to help foster that connection.  His greatest source of inspiration is the ocean and, if permitted, will never say no to a breakfast burrito.
