Meet The Pastor
Founder and Lead Pastor Austin Coleman
The vision for Heart and Soul began in Pastor Austin’s heart back in 2010, as a college freshman with a God-sized dream. After five years serving at his dad’s church, SoulQuest, the call came loud and clear: it was time to launch something new. In the thick of the 2020 global pandemic, Austin and his wife Sara took a leap of faith, uprooting their lives to plant a life-giving church in Knoxville. On September 20, 2020, the vision became a reality—proof that bold faith thrives even in wild times. 4 and a half years into this journey, God provided a permanent home at 1101 Corridor Park Boulevard. We are just getting started!
Austin and Sara’s story started back in college, where they met and fell in love, tying the knot in 2014. Now, they’re raising their three kiddos—Cash, Kobe, and Sadie—while leading a movement that’s all about filling Heaven.
