Nathan Hinkle
Lead Pastor

Nathan Hinkle is passionate about the relationships and leadership at White Oak, where he serves as Lead Pastor—a role he never expected but is deeply thankful for.
• Family: Nathan has been married to Denise for 23 years, and together they have three children: Justin, Peter, and Sydney.
• Hobbies: He enjoys hiking, exploring National Parks, weightlifting, and running—anything that gets him outside and active.
• Faith Journey: One of the most transformational scriptures for Nathan is Luke 15:20, the parable of the two sons. It changed his perspective on life, helping him see himself through the Father’s loving eyes.
• Favorite White Oak Memory: The launch Sunday of the Ross Campus in 2009 was an unforgettable moment filled with anticipation and excitement.
• Fun Fact: Nathan never thought he’d be in ministry, let alone a Lead Pastor!
He’s grateful for the journey God has led him on and excited to continue leading others to experience the full life found in Jesus.
