Welcome to Oklahoma City

Search has been part of Oklahoma City since 1987, when former NFL player Ken Mendenhall helped establish the ministry here after making the city his home.

Today, the local team includes Mark Burget and acting Area Director Justin Jackson. Together, they continue creating opportunities for adults to explore questions about life, faith, purpose, and God through honest conversation and trusted relationships.

Some questions deserve more than a quick answer.

For nearly four decades, Search Oklahoma City has been built around the idea that meaningful conversations often begin with trust. You can come with questions, doubts, curiosity, or a point of view that is still taking shape.

That long history has created deep roots across the community, but the approach remains personal. Listen well. Ask thoughtful questions. Build relationships. Give people time to explore what they believe.

If you are curious about Search or looking for a place to have a thoughtful conversation about life and faith, connect with Justin and the Oklahoma City team.
