Backstage Leadership Speaker: Carlos Whittaker

Carlos’s official bio:
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 became the Director of Service Programming at Buckhead Church which is one of the three North Point Community Church campuses.  He oversees all the Sunday adult experience and design.  He directly oversees all areas Hosting, Production, Creative, Video, Music, and Programming at Buckhead Church.  He also sits on the creative sermon planning team for Andy Stanley. His widely read blog is Raggamuffinsoul.com.  Carlos and his wife Heather have 3 children and reside in Atlanta, GA.

To me Carlos was the worship leader at my brother’s church in California who had a cool blog. Now he’s much more, including a great example of character and love for God and people.   Carlos is unique in that you get to know a lot about him through his blog and tweets, but what’s awesome is that when you spend time with him offline, you find out he’s the real deal.  He loves his family.  He loves the church.  He loves people.  A few months ago my brother changed jobs and needed a place to stay for an indefinite amount of time.  Carlos let them live in his basement until they could buy a house.  Did I mention my brother has 3 kids under age 4 and Carlos has 3 children of his own?  It was an amazing example of serving others.  You will undoubtedly learn a lot from Carlos.  Whether you are a worship leader or business owner, you’re going to learn a lot from him.
