Tyson Wynn
I’m Tyson Wynn, a life-time Oklahoman, who lives in Welch, Okla., with my wife Jeane and three hounds. Jeane and I run Wynn-Wynn Media, a publicity firm working mainly for national Christian publishers. (No, we cannot publish your book! We are publicists who work for publishers; those are not the same thing.) We occasionally work for other clients, most notably Welch State Bank. In August 2009, we began the great adventure of moving from Claremore, OKla., where we have lived for almost a decade, back to our hometown of Welch. We’ve relocated our business back to the place where we grew up to be near our families. We love our hometown, and we support it all we can. One of my projects is WelchOK.com, a news and information site about Welch and her people.

My background is in radio and television, having worked at KITO (Vinita, Okla.) in high school and KOSU (Stillwater, Okla.) in college before moving to OSU’s Educational Television Services, where I began as an engineering assistant. Over my time at ETS, I became a television engineer working at both the Stillwater and Tulsa campuses supporting OSU’s distance learning network. I also earned my bachelor’s degree in English from OSU in 2000.

After a brief stint at Rogers State University in Claremore as Assistant Director of Distance Education, I returned to OSU’s Educational Television Services at the Stillwater campus as Master Control Supervisor, supporting all the audio and video connections on the OSU campus. However, the best part of working at OSU all those years are the great people with whom I worked. ETS was home to some of the most gifted, creative, and downright nice people I have ever known. I still love to visit when I am in Stillwater.

I was called to ministry when I was in high school, and I left OSU to join my wife in our business and enter the ministry in 2002. Our business continues to grow, and I was blessed to be the bivocational pastor of Strang First Baptist Church from November 2004-July 2009. Upon returning to Welch, I left pastoral ministry, though Jeane and I view our lives as ministry, so we seek ways in which we can share Christ in all of our lives.

In denominational life, I have served on the Board of Directors of the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma, Clerk of Craig-Mayes Baptist Association, and Secretary of Green Country Baptist Assembly. I have served as parliamentarian to the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma from 2009 through the present.

About the WynnBlog
The WynnBlog is my own little soapbox. I usually address issues that are important to me. Some folks think as one called to ministry everything I post will have a hugely overt religious theme. That is not necessarily true. My faith underlies everything I do and everything I think, but the WynnBlog is the nexus of where faith, culture, life, and anything else I choose intersect. I like to look at Christian faith as an everyday thing, where the rubber meets the road so to speak, and that often comes out on the WynnBlog. So here, you gets lots of commentary on politics, culture, faith, movements, and just my opinions.

I love free and open debate, and any and all are invited to comment intelligently. I attempt to avoid huge errors of grammar and plain old typos in my blog (I do have an English degree, after all), but they do happen. I rarely remove a post, but I do edit out mistakes when I find them.
