Taylor grew up in Houston, Texas in a family of doctors. Taylor met his wife, Julianna, at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, and they were married in 2006. After working for
Reformed University Fellowship at Davidson College in North Carolina, they moved to Austin, Texas. While there, Julianna completed a Ph.D. in Comparative Literature at the University of Texas, and Taylor worked for
All Saints Presbyterian Church and then Redeemer Seminary, where he completed his M.Div. They moved back to Houston with their children in 2015 when Taylor accepted a call as an Assistant Pastor at
Christ the King Presbyterian Church. Taylor and Julianna have been praying about this call to plant a church that ministers to the medical, academic, and neighborhood communities of the Texas Medical Center. And they began working on this church plant in 2021.
