Colorado Springs sits at the base of Pikes Peak and at the center of American evangelical life. Home to Focus on the Family, the Navigators, and dozens of other Christian organizations, the Springs has one of the highest concentrations of churches per capita in the country. But don't let the reputation fool you into thinking it's monolithic -- the city's congregations span the theological spectrum, from charismatic to liturgical, and the mountain-town culture lends a laid-back warmth to even the most traditional churches.

1. New Life Church

One of the largest and most influential churches in Colorado, New Life draws thousands each weekend to its north-side campus. The worship is powerful and immersive, the teaching balances depth with accessibility, and the sheer breadth of ministries -- from addiction recovery to special-needs inclusion -- is remarkable.

How We Ranked These Churches

Our rankings are based on FaithScout's multi-dimensional rating system. Unlike simple star ratings, we evaluate churches across five key dimensions that matter most to visitors: teaching quality, community atmosphere, worship experience, welcome and hospitality, and children's ministry. Each score comes directly from real visitor reports — not paid placements or self-reported data.

Churches are ranked by their overall composite score, weighted by the number of visitor reviews. A church with 200+ reviews and a 4.8 rating carries more weight than one with 5 reviews and a 5.0 — because consistency matters more than perfection.
