Gospel Communities

Helping each other believe and apply the gospel in every area of life
Church is a family. A Gospel Community (GC) is a place where you can experience that reality. We extend grace, speak truth, deal with conflict, meet needs, and invite others in. Our groups meet throughout the week and across the city. Anyone is welcome, any time. It’s a wonderful mess, in the way that families often are, but we are learning to love one another as Jesus loved us.

The Arbuckle GC
Trey & Kyrsten Arbuckle
The Arbuckle GC meets on Sunday mornings in Clarksville to eat, sing, pray, and study together.

In everything, we want to encourage each other towards experiencing and walking in His faithfulness.

Will & Katie Fowler

The Fowler GC
Will & Katie Fowler
One Sunday morning every month in West Austin, the families of the Fowler GC (and over 20 kids between us) gather to eat kolaches and donuts and study God’s word together. Slightly less chaotic are the men’s and women’s discipleship groups that meet weekly in the early mornings at Honey Ham (guys), and late nights at Starbucks (ladies). Our GC is a loving community of believers who help point each other to the peace and love of Christ.

John & Evonne Griffin

The Griffin GC
John & Evonne Griffin
One of the most distinguishing characteristics of of our GC is diversity. From our age range, backgrounds, vocations, to life stages, we are all quite different. Though we’re different in many ways, we are the same in our commitment to genuine community and our relentless pursuit of the gospel. We work together to take care of each other and have seen God come through in mighty ways over the past 3 years. Needless to say, we are not without flaw and sometimes like to settle things the ole fashioned way, with an arm wresting match!

One thing you should know about our group: our dinner game is on point! We strongly believe that a robust and full bodied Bible study pairs well with an aromatic and hearty meal.

Baird & Monica Smith

The Smith GC
Baird & Monica Smith
The Smith GC is one of the oldest at Providence, both in terms of how long it’s been around, as well as the average age of the people in it. It is a mix of of singles and families, with kids ranging in age from 6-19 years old. Since getting that many families together every week is pretty challenging, we meet weekly in men’s and women’s small groups, mostly in the SW area of Austin. We aim for depth in our time together and focus on the challenges and joys of living out the gospel with our families. In terms of our mission, the group’s focus has been on building gospel bridges with our neighbors, fostering care and adoption, as well as caring for underserved communities through Mobile Loaves and Fishes.
