Our Lead Pastor, Dr. Jamie Austin, is a Tulsa native, that grew up at Woodlake Church. When he graduated from Southwestern Assemblies of God University, he stepped into ministry working with kids and students over ten years with most of that time leading a thriving youth ministry in Lawton, Oklahoma, reaching hundreds of students every week.

In 2009, he accepted the call to return to his home church, Woodlake, as the Lead Pastor. Since then, he has seen Woodlake expand to multiple locations, reaching many people in the Tulsa area each and every week. In 2015 he received a Masters of Practical Theology from Oral Roberts University and in 2023 a Doctorate of Ministry from the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary.

Outside of the church, Pastor Jamie can usually be found outdoors doing everything from coaching his son’s athletic teams to hunting, fishing, or working on his dad’s ranch. He and his wife Jen have two kids, Wyatt and Avery, and a dog named Toby. Pastor Jamie and Jen are passionate about reaching people who have not met Jesus yet, building God’s kingdom through local churches, and getting to know the people that call Woodlake Church home.
