Resurrection in the City
Bringing freedom closer. Making greater impact.
A Brand New Chapter for House of Resurrection
For more than a year Lori and I have been quietly praying about the future of House of Resurrection.
As the number of people we serve in Tulsa and across America has grown, Lori and I have been asking the Lord how to make this work more accessible and more impactful. We have sensed a growing conviction to move our headquarters and expand our mission right here in our own city of Tulsa,
Through months of prayer, counsel from our board, and a recent sabbatical, we sensed God gently leading us to see the next chapter of House of Resurrection will unfold.
House of Resurrection is preparing to move our ministry center into Tulsa County — and expanding the work we do.
This expansion will allow us to:
• Establish a Tulsa ministry center to serve as a hub for healing and restoration
• Create a Sabbath Residence where weary pastors
• Host weekly freedom gatherings for men and women battling addiction
• Provide counseling offices where Lori and I can meet with those in crisis
• Host residential Intensives for men and couples in crisis
• Expand the Katharos program, which is already serving more than 200 people each year in Tulsa
As you read more about the vision and plans below, we would be grateful if you would keep this exciting new season in your prayers.
Time to Bring Resurrection to the City.
Here’s what the Lord has done in our first eight years.
• More than 100 pastors restored after moral crisis
• Thousands of men and marriages rescued from sexual brokenness
• The launch of Katharos for Men
• The creation of Katharos for Students
• The development of Katharos for Women
• The establishment of a debt free residential ministry center
And this is only the beginning.
What could God do through the next eight years of House of Resurrection?
If God has been encouraged by this ministry, we simply invite you to pray… and if He leads, consider partnering financially as we continue bringing hope and healing to men, ministers, and marriages around the world.

While we can't say for certain, we believe the transition will unfold over the coming year. We are trusting God to lead each step, and we feel confident that, if He continues opening the right doors, we'll have a permanent House of Resurrection ministry center established in Tulsa sometime in 2027.
