Michael Dennis | Lead Pastor
Background: Michael and Holly have been married over 11 years and been given two wonderful children, (Kennedy 6, Tucker 3). Michael met Jesus when he was 18 years old and remembers being completely confused by the local church. However, the more he explored a relationship with Jesus the more he found something greater than anything that could be captured simply by attending church on Sunday.
Vision: It is his desire that all of Austin would experience Jesus in a way that benefits the lives of others and our city.

Tim Birdwell | Associate Pastor
Background: Tim and Jaya have been married 4 years and had their first child in May 2009. Tim grew up going to church, however, found the experience lacking on multiple levels. After wrestling with this frustration he saw that the local church could be so much more. It could be a place where people are welcomed... where people are challenged... where people see a greater picture of who Jesus is and what He is doing.
Vision: To see our church be a benefit to the city of Austin by serving others and pointing them to Jesus.
