Our Story

Matthew 16:18

The city of Denver has been in Pastor Matt’s heart for a long time. As a child, he became a Denver Broncos fan and had a deep desire of one day moving to Colorado. In 2018, while on staff at Gateway Church in Dallas, Texas, he and Pastor Jade began sensing the Lord was calling them to plant a church. What started as a dream to do something meaningful for God and for people was confirmed in a moment of quiet time as Pastor Matt read from Matthew 16:18,

“And I tell you that you are Peter. On this rock I will build My church. The powers of hell will not be able to have power over My church.”

He later asked the Lord, “We will go anywhere but where would You have us go to plant a church?” Immediately, he felt the Lord respond, “What is the city that I put in your heart since you were a little boy?” In that moment, he knew that God was saying Denver, Colorado. It wasn’t just a childhood dream after all. It was a seed the Lord planted many years prior that would develop into a burden to reach people.

Pastor Matt and Pastor Jade traveled to Denver soon after to pray in the city and seek confirmation if Denver is where God would be sending them. After receiving confirmation they shared with the leadership at Gateway Church what they believed God was saying. That began a multi-year process of prayer, preparation and coaching. In 2022, Pastor Matt and Pastor Jade were prayed over, blessed and sent by Gateway Church to plant Legacy Hills Church in Lone Tree/Parker, Colorado.

OUR NAME

Legacy Hills Church

We believe in the importance of building legacies of faith. A legacy is not only something we leave but something we can inherit. We have an opportunity to receive from those in the faith who have gone before us and build upon it for those coming after us. 

The promised land, throughout the early books of the bible, was often referred to as the hill country. It was the place which God promised for His people to settle. We, too, received a promise from God and He has reserved for us a place in our hill country of Lone Tree, Colorado.
