Reliance Men

Leading men to know, love & serve Jesus.

The Men’s Ministry functions as a vehicle to develop men as disciples of Jesus Christ. The core of our ministry is 1 Corinthians 16:13 (NASB), which exhorts, “Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.”

We are “on the alert” when we recognize we are in a daily spiritual war zone, and thus choose to embrace a proactive, purposeful attitude. We “stand firm in the faith” when we make decisions that catalyze personal growth. We “act like men” when we fulfill our God-given roles as servant leaders like Jesus, avoiding the lures of temptation. We realize the church is only as “strong” as the men who comprise its membership, so we strive to be faithful, trustworthy, and honorable.

Our objective is to produce Godly, holy, Christ-like men who live, love, and serve like Jesus. Toward that end, we offer weekly Bible studies, various events, and discipleship groups, as well as various serving opportunities.

CODY KING

Cody primarily serves to oversee the Men’s Ministry at Reliance Church. He also assists the pastoral team with discipleship, counseling, pastoral care, and teaching and preaching. Cody became a Christian in his Sr year of High School in 1997 at an Acquire The Fire youth conference in Phoenix Arizona. On the same day he was saved by Jesus, he felt called to dedicate his life to ministry and has been answering that call ever since.

Cody is a graduate of Calvary Chapel Bible College with an Associate’s Degree in Biblical Theology. He is passionate about expository preaching and teaching as a primary way of establishing and developing people in the word of God. When people understand who God is and what God thinks through the Bible, true life transformation happens. Cody also has a heart for church planting, being one of the founding pastors of Reliance Church in 2007, and the founding and lead pastor of Redemption Calvary in Commerce City, Colorado from 2014-2022. He has also helped establish and strengthen other church planters and their churches over the years.

Cody and his wife Myca were married in 2002 and have four daughters together.
