Our Pastors

Founding Pastor Tom Stipe Tom Stipe is the Founding Pastor of Crossroads Church of Denver. From 1970 to 1976 Tom was an assistant pastor at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa in California under Chuck Smith. During those years his foundation in ministry included serving as a staff evangelist, record producer, worship leader, band member and pastor over the growing ministry of music at the church.

Tom may be remembered by many as the bushy-haired preacher at Calvary's "Saturday Night Concerts." After taking part in the preaching and music evangelism so prevalent during the Jesus Movement years in Southern California, Tom and his family moved to Denver to start Crossroads Church

 

Teaching the Bible, playing and singing contemporary worship, while mixing these gifts with some bold music evangelism ideas has made Tom's ministry quite interesting to follow. This mix of ministry gifts have taken him from pastors conferences to country music tours, with responsibilities ranging from keynote speaker to tour partner with country singer Ricky Skaggs in Russia. Tom has recorded two country music CDs of his own and has logged hundred's of hours of Bible study teachings. Both the pulpit and the bandstand have become comfortable platforms for Tom's communication of the claims of Christ.


Co-Pastor Brandon Hoover Brandon Hoover is a Co-Pastor of Crossroads Church of Denver. From a very early age, Brandon was familiar with the things of God, having grown up in the church. It wasn’t until he was 20 years old though, that the “things of God” became a personal relationship with the living God. Feeling a call to the ministry, Brandon finished his Bachelor of Arts in History from Washington State University and began his Master of Divinity from Multnomah Biblical Seminary.

After graduating from Multnomah in 1997, he came on staff at Crossroads Community Church in Vancouver, WA. as the College/Career Pastor and remained there for six years overseeing the young adults ministry, baptisms, and newcomer assimilation.

 

Brandon and his wife, Karen, then felt a call to Denver, Colorado, and in January of 2002, They moved there to plant a church. After three years of church planting and all the struggles related to it, Brandon came on staff at Crossroads in January 2005 as the Assistant Teaching Pastor.

 

A love for God’s word and communicating it in a real and "down to earth" way marks Brandon's passion as a preacher, and a sincere love for God’s people defines him as a pastor.

 

Brandon, Karen, and their three children, Alexandra, Brycen, and Mackenzie love to ski, mountain bike, play soccer, wakeboard, and spend time together with family and friends. They currently live in Thornton, Colorado.
