“Every day, we have opportunities to say ‘look at you!’ instead of ‘look at me,’ and practice biblical hospitality.”

Hospitality isn't reserved for event planners or people who excel at entertaining. It’s a Christ-like posture that can be learned over time by every believer, in every industry, in every city.

In this new article, Denver Institute's Public Engagement Manager, Naomi Hartman, reflects on how a simple posture of noticing others can shape your daily work and relationships.

💡Monthly Spiritual Discipline

This month, we’re focusing on being intentionally and missionally engaged with the people we work alongside who do not know Christ. We are called to be known as people who follow Christ, not only by what we say, but through our words, attitudes, actions, and values. Join us in prayerfully practicing intentional ways to represent Christ in our workplaces and relationships.

Hear our teammate Naomi share how she engages the practice of intentionality, and download the guide to reflect more deeply this month: https://ow.ly/kHl450Z7lLm

The call of the Christian is not to certainty, but to trust.

At Denver Institute, we believe a “who knows” kind of trust is worked out in the concrete places of our lives, namely in the work of meetings and emails, decisions and deadlines, products built, services rendered, people led, and budgets met. Faithful work in uncertain times is about offering our work to God with integrity, courage, and hope, trusting that he is at work in and through it.

So we turn toward him again, and again, in our work, in our leadership, and in our cities, and move forward with quiet confidence, trusting that the God who meets us in our faithfulness is able to do far more than we can ask or imagine.

Our 2026 Class of 5280 Fellows!

Over the last five months, these 22 fellows stepped away from the noise of daily demands to reflect on how God is at work in their vocations and how their work might more fully participate in God’s renewing mission in the world.

Through retreats, cohort conversations, readings, and practices, they explored what it means to pursue faithful public work for the common good.

We are so excited to see how they continue working with God, for the world, through their everyday work.

We’re grateful to share our 2025 Annual Report with you.

In moments marked by uncertainty, a phrase from Joel 2 stayed with our team this past year: “Who knows? He may turn and relent and leave a blessing behind him…”

What began as a light-hearted mantra for our team and our work became something deeper. It reminded us that our role is not ultimately about outcomes or impact, but about faithfulness.

Faithfulness lives not in clarity, but in uncertainty; not when outcomes are secured, but when they are still hidden. It is the steady turning of our attention, our work, and our hope toward the one Person we can trust: Jesus.

💡Monthly Spiritual Discipline

There is scriptural evidence that the people of God practiced fixed-hour prayer—routined pauses throughout the day to pray and be mindful of God’s presence. This could look like a short morning walk without your phone, a quiet commute to work, or a pause in your workday to step away from your screen and pray.

Hear our teammate Grace share how she engages the practice of fixed-hour prayer, and download the guide to reflect more deeply this month: https://ow.ly/Tl3U50Z2To5
