staff TEAm
Henry Newman // Chapter Director
Henry Newman grew up in Tucson, Arizona, where he realized there was more seasons than just summer. So, he moved up to Colorado and graduated from Colorado Christian University with a degree in Business Administration with a Management emphasis and a minor in Apologetics and Evangelism. Henry has served with Denver KLIFE for four years now and cannot believe how intentional God is. Some personal goals of his are to hike all 58 14ers, finally learn to ski, and read 12 books in a year. He has a deep passion for God and His Word and a joy in knowing people and their stories. Incredibly, God uses a grand narrative in redeeming people and our stories are intertwined in that great news! Henry is so grateful to be a part of God’s story for KLIFE and cannot wait to see what He does!
