Our Staff

Johnny Loughridge - Transitional Pastor
So what part of the planet do I come from? Well Texas of course! Now that may not a very popular place in your world but my Oklahoma roots might. Both of my parents and all four grandparents were born and reared in Oklahoma (Leedy and Ardmore). And my eldest daughter was born in Midwest City since I came to Midwest Blvd. CC right out of Brite Seminary @ TCU (Tim Pool and I were classmates). After 2 years, I kinda changed places with J. Clyde Wheeler as he served MWBCC as interim and I went to Crown Heights as associate. Then I spent 5 years at First Christian, Sand Springs, OK. I guess I am coming full circle so to speak because I remember in my years in Oklahoma City when I watched New Covenant Christian Church being born!
My lovely very smart bride Rev. Coretha Loughridge will continue to hold down the home front since she is the Area Minister for the Northeast Texas Area of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the Southwest Region of the Christian Church. She has about 65 congregations to work with out of her Tyler, Texas office.
So, my door will always be open. Stop by and let me know how I can be of help on your faith journey. Just call me Johnny and my wife Coretha.
