Who we are

We are a family of individuals who are saved and united by the love of Christ. Our heart is to help everybody experience the joy of knowing Jesus and being known in community.

Our Story

While Chris (pastor) was still studying at a seminary in Jacksonville (TX), a dear friend encouraged him to consider planting a church. After much prayer and waiting, God led him toward Austin. Chris and his family moved to Austin in 2019 and the church was birthed in 2020.

The name ‘Anchor Austin’ is based on Hebrews 6:19 and comes out of a deep desire to see all of Austin be ‘anchored’ in the truth of the gospel.
