Why We Exist

“We are a community of ordinary people learning to love Jesus, love our neighbors, and bring real hope to the city of Austin.”

We believe the local church should not be a museum for saints, but a hospital for the broken and a dining table for family. No pretense, no performance—just honest grace.

Community in Action

Church is more than Sunday morning.

Spiritual growth doesn't happen in isolation. Our community comes alive in living rooms, around coffee tables, and serving our city throughout the week.

The Anxiety of Belonging

Pastor Marcus Vance Ephesians 2:11-22

In an age of hyper-connectivity and pervasive loneliness, we often wonder if anyone truly knows us. Pastor Marcus explores how Christ breaks down the dividing walls of hostility to form a new household of peace.

Transformation & Community

Real people. Real stories.

Nothing communicates the heartbeat of our church better than the honest stories of people who have found belonging, healing, and faith here.

When we relocated to Austin with a toddler and a newborn, we felt completely overwhelmed. Walking into Grace & Peace was the first time in years we felt like we didn't have to perform.

I had deconstructed much of my childhood faith and had given up on church entirely. Here, I found a room full of people who welcomed my hard questions without defensiveness.
