About Us
We built this agency because churches deserve better
Too many great churches and nonprofits are invisible online. Not because their work isn’t valuable, but because they don’t have the right digital support. We exist to change that.

The founder’s story
I'm Zach Green — a pastor, a certified digital marketer, and the person behind White Oak Media. I've spent nearly a decade in ministry, which means I don't just understand the digital side of this work — I understand what church actually feels like from the inside. I've sat in budget meetings, served on leadership teams, and experienced firsthand how a great ministry can be held back by a weak digital presence.
I started White Oak because I believe the local church is one of the most powerful forces for good in any community — and that the best tool a church has to reach people today is digital marketing. The Gospel deserves the best possible platform. But too often, great churches stay invisible online: outdated websites, no Google presence, no social strategy. They're pouring everything into their people, while the door to the outside world stays hard to find.
My goal is simple: help churches find real, practical solutions to reaching people within their community — and beyond — with the message of Jesus Christ. That's what White Oak Media exists to do.
“I believe digital marketing is the best tool a church has to spread the Gospel today. When a church is invisible online, people who need what it offers never find it. That’s the gap White Oak exists to close.”Book a discovery call
What We Believe
The values that shape our work
Clarity over cleverness
Great design for mission-driven organizations isn't about winning awards — it's about helping visitors understand who you are and what to do next. We always choose clear over clever.
Built to last
We don't build websites that need a developer for every small update. We build sturdy, well-documented systems your team can own and grow.
Deep listening
Every church and nonprofit has a unique story, culture, and community. We take time to understand yours before we make anything.
Real relationships
We're not a faceless agency. You'll know who you're working with, and we'll genuinely care about your outcomes — not just your deliverables.
Why We Specialize
Why churches and mission orgs?
There are hundreds of web agencies that can build a decent website. Very few understand the unique context of a church or mission-driven nonprofit — the culture, the language, the budget realities, the volunteer-driven operations, and the deep responsibility these organizations carry.
When a church’s website confuses visitors, people don’t find community. When a nonprofit can’t communicate its impact, donors don’t give. The stakes are higher than a typical business.
We chose to specialize because depth of understanding produces better results. We know what a “Plan a Visit” CTA should look like. We know how to talk about giving without it feeling transactional. We know how to balance the warmth of community with the clarity of purpose.
That context is hard to replicate. It’s what we’re building everything around.
How We Work
A process built on clarity
Six phases. Clear handoffs. No surprises. Here's exactly what working with White Oak Media looks like.
You're never in the dark
Every client gets access to a dedicated project portal where you can track progress in real time, message our team, approve designs, download files, view invoices, and pay securely — all in one place.
We scope before we build
No scope creep surprises. If something changes, we talk about it before any work happens.
Design is approved before build begins
We don't start building until you've signed off on how the site will look. This prevents expensive rework.
We finish what we start
Your project has a dedicated timeline. We don't juggle 20 projects — when you're in, you're in.
Two Ways We Work
Not all services follow the same timeline
Some engagements have a finish line. Others run continuously in the background, compounding results month after month.
Project-Based
Custom Website & Branding
Defined scope. A clear beginning, middle, and end. We work intensively over 6–10 weeks to deliver something built to last — then hand it off fully supported.
- Custom Website
- Custom Branding
Timeline: 6–10 weeks from kickoff to delivery
Monthly Retainer
Ongoing Services
These aren't projects — they're ongoing partnerships. We onboard quickly and start delivering within the first 1–2 weeks, then run month after month in the background.
- Google Ad Grant Management
- Church Visibility Optimization
- Sermon-to-Social PRO
- Website Management
Onboarding: 1–2 weeks · Then runs month to month
