Rob Harter - Lead Pastor

iLife: I have the privilege of leading Larkridge Church, which was started with a handful of people in March of 2005. I went to Wheaton College for my B.A. and received my MDiv. from Denver Seminary.  I have served in both mega-churches and in church-plants started from scratch. 

Most of all, I love spending quality time with my amazing wife and kids.

iPod: My current favorite movie is the Bourne Supremacy. On my iPod playlist the most is Daughtry, Switchfoot, Anberlin, and all things David Crowder.

iHobbies: I am addicted to skiing in deep powder, devouring great books, and hiking 14-thousand feet mountains.

iMinistry: What I get pumped about the most is inspiring people to live out God’s dreams for their lives, and to develop culturally-relevant, community-changing and God-honoring churches for this emerging generation.

iLarkridge:  What I love most about this church is the desire of our people to be a dangerous church, dangerous for God in the good sense of the term. Rather than playing it safe with how we do church, our people are willing to pray bold prayers and take big risks in order to see God doing something special and in the process to impact the world, one life at a time.

Roger Whitmore - Community/Care Pastor

iPod: Dave Crowder and Chris Tomlin and believe it or not I love a little Earth, Wind and Fire, New Edition and Boyz to Men. I love Jim Carrey movies especially Liar Liar and Bruce Almighty.

iLife: I have been married to Laura for 17 incredible years, we have a 15 year old son about to drive named Taylor and wonderful twins Tanner and Madelyn just turning 9.

iHobbies: I spend a lot of time watching sports, especially the ones involving my kids. My wife and I love shopping or going to movies!

iMinistry: I’m the pastor Community and Care and have the opportunity to help people take the next step in their spiritual journey through Life Groups and other digging deeper opportunities as well as through the various ways people can serve here at Larkridge

iLarkridge: Larkridge is clearly right where God wants me. I love the growth it has provided for my family and several personal relationships I have formed will be with me for a lifetime!

Cathy Daddario - Ministry Support/Early Childhood Coordinator

iLife:  I have been married for almost 22 years to my awesome biker man Peter.  We have 4 children, ranging to age from 25 to 4 years old. (3 sons and one beautiful daughter).  We also have a beautiful grand-daughter who is 10 months.

iPod: I like Aaron Shurst, Lincoln Brewster, Building 429, and David Crowder.  Don’t watch much T.V but I like 24 and House.  Movies; Veggie Tales 

iHobbies: In what little spare time I have, I enjoy cross stitching, doing ministry with my awesome husband and doing stuff with the kids.

iMinistry: I’m in ministry support person, which means I support the different ministries within the church.  I’m also, along with Peter members of the Tribe of Judah Motorcycle ministry.

iLarkridge: I love Larkridge because the people are real and expecting of everyone.  We have great committee here. I like the fact that the leadership is present and a strong force with a true desire to reach and care for not only our people with the church but in our community.

Becca Stewart – Kid's Ministry Coordinator

iLife: I am married to my best friend, Jason, and have two little boys who keep me running! We are Colorado Natives, and live just outside Brighton. I graduated in 2007 with an English Writing degree from the University of Colorado at Denver, and before joining the staff at Larkridge I spent eight years coaching competitive gymnastics.

iPod: I listen to just about anything - except Country (sorry Kory). A few of my favorites are Charlie Hall, Falling Up, the David Crowder Band, etc. I also played the saxophone in my younger days, and love listening to ska. My very favorite song is “Every New Day” by Five Iron Frenzy. 

iHobbies: I love to snowboard and hike with my husband, play with my kids, and read. I am also addicted to playing Scrabble.

iMinistry: I am blessed to be able to do what I love the most: be with kids! My favorite part about working in the Children’s Ministry is learning more and more what Jesus meant by having “faith like a child.” I am passionate about telling kids that God loves them and has a plan for their lives, and I am passionate about making Generation 22:6 a fun and exciting ministry that gets kids fired up for God.

iLarkridge: What I love the most about the church is that it is honest, it is loving, and it is real. No one is pretending to be perfect here. We’re all broken people in a broken world, and we need to have other people surrounding us and encouraging us to be seeking God’s direction. That’s what Larkridge is all about.

Kory Brunson - Worship Pastor

iPod: I don’t listen to music that much. Since it’s my work, I’m around it all the time, so I actually treasure the quiet times I get. When I do listen to it, I usually listen to stuff that gets my adrenal glands goin, Godsmack, Linkin Park, stuff like that. Maybe some country music like Brad Paisley or Keith Urban. But I end up Analyzing that stuff so much it’s not very relaxing.
iLife: I have the ultimate wife.  Seriously. She’s my high school prom date. She’s so faithful to me and cares for my “artistic” heart like no other woman could.  And…she’s H-O-T. There’s just no other woman in the world that holds a candle to my wife Meggin. Plus…..she gave me two wonderful sons,  Konner (3 yrs) and Mitchell (4 months). They are the best. 

iHobbies: I have a side project/business called the “Kory Brunson Band” that I own with Craig Bennington. We write and record music, as well as play out live. Other than that, I have no spare time.

iMinistry: What is your ministry here at larkridge and/or beyond Larkridge and why do you do it? My ministry here is leading worship on Sundays, as well as being the full time staff connection for the Set Up and Tear Down teams, the Setting the Vibe team, and the Tech Team. I tell people I’m a musician and a worship pastor, they see how strong my marriage and family are, and it just leaves this little “It IS possible, through Christ” message. I dig that.

iLarkridge: What I love most about Larkridge is the friends I’ve made here. I rarely have fond memories of “services” as I look back on other churches I’ve been to. I have fond memories of my friends. The talks  we’ve had, the time we’ve spent together. Those are the things that truly enrich my life. I have those kinds of friends at Larkridge.

Glenda Beemer - Bookkeeper

iPod: David Crowder, Chris Tomlin and Vince Guaraldi Trio. My all time favorite movie is 3 Days of the Condor.

iLife: I’ve been married since 1989 to my best friend, Jim. We have two very energetic boys that I spend most of my time trying to keep in one piece. We’ve lived in Westminster since 2002.

iHobbies: Playing the piano, bicycling, walking and I’m a puzzle junkie, especially word puzzles.

iMinistry: I am the bookkeeper for the church. My desire is to support the church through something that fits my personality and my season in life. Also, I hope that I can show Christ’s love through my everyday actions to the people around me.

iLarkridge: Being able to go to a place where I can worship the way I am comfortable and be accepted for who I am and where I am spiritually.

Inspiring people to live out God's dream for their life, wherever they are in their spiritual journey.
