"…to the praise of the glory of His grace…" Ephesians 1:6

Marcus Bell-Winston

Marcus’ military family settled in Austin, TX when he was five. At twelve years old, Marcus one night dreamt he would be a pastor. At the time he laughed at the idea, but at 17 years old, the Lord took a hold of his heart and Marcus began to live out his faith in a dramatic way. In 2005, he completed his Bachelors in Religion and Philosophy, with an emphasis in Pastoral Ministry, at Oklahoma Wesleyan University.

While in his senior year at Oklahoma Wesleyan, he met his future bride, Sarah. They were married on July 7, 2007. They have four children, Trinity, Thaddeus, Titus, and Truly.   Marcus is the former Lead Pastor of 99.1 Church, which was a multi-ethnic urban church plant in NE Austin. Prior to that, he has served as College & Careers and Youth Pastor. He was also involved in campus ministries at the University of Texas and Texas State. The Lord brought Marcus and his family to Tulsa and to Springs of Grace Bible Church in 2019. Soli Deo Gloria!
