Israel Hogue: Lead Pastor

Hey, I am Israel, the founding and lead pastor of theedge. I am responsible for all the things you would associate with a senior pastor position. I am available to do weddings, funerals, hospital visits, and any spiritual counseling you or your family may have need of. I am also responsible for the ongoing vision and purpose and spiritual direction of theedge. I am the leader of our executive staff, which meets every week. I do most of the teaching/preaching on the weekend services. I have a huge heart for evangelism, so I spend a lot of time thinking of programs that will help theedge reach out to our community and bring more people to Christ and the church.

Disciple: Missions Director

Hey yall! My name is disciple, it's similar to Bono or Cher... No last name. My job here at TheEdge is to coordinate and manage our global missions. My goal is to make available opportunities for everyone to go and reach the poor, the widows, and the destitute with the message and love of Jesus Christ. Currently we have served in Gulu, Uganda and Piedras Negras, Mexico. My prayer is that God would continue to grow TheEdge globally and lead us to right countries and the right communities that need Him the most. I hope that in the near future you and your family would pray about joining us on one of these trips. For up to date information check out the "Global Missions" link on the bottom of this page.

Britton Thurlow: Associate Pastor

Hey, my name is Britton and I'm very excited to be part of the team here at the Edge. I have been a youth and or kids pastor here in Oklahoma City for about ten years. Recently God has brought me here to the Edge to be an associate pastor along side Israel. That basically means I get to do all the really cool fun stuff: build neighbor groups so you have a chance to meet new people, help Disciple reach the needy in our city and around the world, teach and preach, play drums, take out the trash... But my biggest desire is to build this church through community so we can do more for the Kingdom of Heaven (that sounded really cool).
Feel free to email or call me if... you are wanting to get involved, if you have any questions, or even ideas how we can better Love Love Serve.
