I remember the first time a mechanic talked to me about the importance of my car’s alignment. I had an idea of what it meant for a car to be aligned, but what I didn’t quite understand was the implications for a car when it is out of alignment. He explained it to me by...

I recall September 2008 quite often. That is the season that I stepped out of Youth Ministry and began to build the launch team for White Oak’s Ross Twp. Campus which would launch the following March with me serving as the Campus Pastor. That feeling was electric. There was energy in the air at White Oak. We are part of a church that is...

I’m a planner. Well, sort of. I have my moments. In our family’s spoken and unspoken delineation of responsibilities, I often take on the role of vacation planner. Once the location and dates have been determined, I usually take on the responsibility of researching the things we will do and experience. I spend my time securing the transportation, finding the housing, planning the itinerary, and making other necessary reservations. As a result, generally...

However, because I made that decision later in the summer, I stayed with my, then current plan to attend Miami University. During that school year I not only studied as a full-time student, but I also found myself working three jobs (two on campus and the other...

It was one year ago this week that I was on a solo trip hiking in Colorado and Wyoming. I’ve thought back to that time often over this last year. The sights, the sounds, the smells. It was beautiful. And though I often think how desperately I’d love to go back there more frequently, I know that’s not really a reality. I was blessed during that time to keep a journal. I’m not much of a consistent journaler, but I am so glad that I kept one. It was during this time last year th

I have sensed something for a few years now. I have seen it. I have shared that sensing with some others and they see it, too. I see it at White Oak. Our cultural climate has affirmed this as well. What is it? I have seen a lot of young people showing great curiosity for spiritual things...

In 2007 I boarded a plane along with other staff members of White Oak and flew to San Diego. Our purpose was to attend a multi-site church conference. That was a new concept and phrase which I had just been exposed to. We spent the week listening to church leaders from South Carolina, Chicago, and California talk about what it meant to be a multi-site church. Soon after, White Oak made the decision to...
