At an early age, Bryan Payne discovered God’s sufficiency in all things, especially in being a Father, and understood his life had been completely formed and sustained by the gospel of Jesus Christ.
After graduating from Sam Houston State University, Bryan was owner/operator of several small businesses while serving in youth ministry. During those 6 years of ministry, he developed a fervor for watching men and women grow in their love and understanding of Jesus Christ (Col. 1:28) while infectiously spreading the gospel with everyone around them (Matt. 5:14-16).
This love for ministry led Bryan to enroll and graduate from The Master’s Seminary with a Master’s of Divinity, and then as a 2010 graduate of the Harvest Training Center.
Bryan and his wife Lindsey have been married since 2001. They both grew up in Texas and are happy to call Austin “home,” where they are raising two young sons, Nathanael and Caleb. They are excited to bring the life-changing news of Jesus Christ and the revelation of who God is to the Austin area.
