Jeremy Stalnecker was at war. As commander of a counter-mechanized platoon providing navigation and lead security for the First Battalion in Operation Iraqi-Freedom he was in the middle of the action. Today he helps men heal the unseen wounds of combat. As CEO of the Mighty Oaks Foundation, the actions he takes every day bring new life to hundreds of veterans and men who have been sidelined by the trauma and abrasions of battle.
Post-traumatic stress has been a huge issue for many veterans and even those in active duty. Jeremy and his team at Mighty Oaks help bring the healing power of the Gospel to the hearts of men and women who have found new life and new direction because of this powerful ministry. After active duty in the Marines, Jeremy served as a pastor for over a decade and then became the CEO of the Mighty Oaks Foundation. This move brought together both his ministry experience and military background in a way that allows him to serve and minister to many hurting veterans, service members and their families.
