Denver church staff BART BANKS
What is your role at BVC?
College and Young Adult Pastor
 
What is the best part about your role?
The best part about my role is being a small part of shaping the next generation that is making Jesus famous one life at a time.
 
What makes you laugh?
The better question may be what doesn't make me laugh? My son is hilarious and he keeps us laughing all day and night at home. I love to find humor in everyday life. If I can't laugh at myself who can I laugh at?
 
What is your favorite thing about living in Colorado?
The mountains! I love to mountain bike and ski. Colorado has great weather and scenery. I also like to dabble in fly fishing although I still haven't caught a fish yet (I hope to update this soon).

What Bible character are you looking forward to meeting in Heaven?
Aside from Jesus, I want to meet Peter. He has always given me hope in my desire to be a pastor. He has a foot shaped mouth and so do I from time to time.
