About Grace Life Baptist Church

Grace Life is a multi-ethnic, Christ-centered, gospel-driven church.

Multi-ethnic. Because Cypress is part of the larger Houston metro area, we reflect the diversity of our community. Many of our members are bilingual. It’s not uncommon to hear Spanish and even a couple other languages spoken in our lobby. We translate the second service message into Spanish (via headsets). Our membership consists of the following: 12% African-American, 10% Asian, 47% Anglo and 31% Latino.


Christ-centered. We practice consecutive expository preaching, alternating between the Old & New Testaments, and believe that the ultimate aim of each passage is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We desire our preaching and worship to be Christ-centered. Keeping our hearts and minds focused on Christ helps maintain the unity of the body that the gospel creates between believers.


Gospel-driven. The gospel (not programs) drives our discipleship model of ministry. We use program but programs are only helpful to the extent that we are grounding believers into the Gospel. 


We practice meaningful membership. Grace Life is elder-led, deacon-served and congregationally-governed.
