Carlos Whittaker is an artist, pastor, thinker, experience architect, and Web 2.0 junkie.
Carlos was at Sandals Church in Riverside California where he served for 10 years as the Pastor of Worship and Creative Arts. Sandals Church is an authentic community of believers whose goal is to be real with themselves, others, and God. His passion for leading the church into a relational worship experience each and every Sunday was his hearts goal.
In August of 2007 Carlos and his family made the move from Southern California to Atlanta, GA. Carlos became the Director of Service Programming at Buckhead Church which is one of the three North Point Community Church campuses. He oversaw all the Sunday adult experience and design. He directly oversaw all areas Hosting, Production, Creative, Video, Music, and Programming at Buckhead Church. He also sat on the creative sermon planning team for Andy Stanley.
Recently Carlos signed with Integrity Music to pursue a recording career and to continue to disturb and disrupt the church as a whole.
Carlos and Heather Whittaker make up a blogging power couple in Ragamuffinsoul.com and Whittakerwoman.typepad.com. They have 3 children. In November 2006 Carlos and his wife Heather adopted their son Losiah from Seoul Korea.
Carlos lives for this…
To ignite a movement of authenticity among all generations of Christians that morphs the face of the evangelical church into a place of being real with yourself, others, and God.
You cant imagine how much money they spend trying to silence good people who will put their lives on the line to fight for change.

What would you do if you
Knew all of the things we knew
Would you stand up for truth
Or would you turn away too
And then what if you saw
All of the things thats wrong
Would you stand tall and strong
Or would you turn and walk away

hey sweets. do you want your above “about us” thing -grammatically correct? if so, let me know. you know that’s what I do…I can send you a few needed adjustments. If it no-matter to you, it no-matter to me. =0)
Sounds like the heart of God, though it still sounds like you’re still working within structures that work against your life goal/mission statement.
For real relational church, everyone has to come down off the stage. One another ministry can’t be relegated to the side while big budget ministry takes center stage, or else we continue to propagate the idea of a new priesthood to replace the old priesthood.
But your heart is in the right place, and I bet we’ll be worshiping together a million years from now.
