Earl White
Earl White is a retired Air Force intelligence officer, engineer, program manager, and
atmospheric scientist. Most of his career involved building and using reconnaissance satellites. He commanded the nation’s only space intelligence squadron and served as the senior intelligence advisor for satellite protection to the department of defense and the intelligence community. Earl has a BS in Agriculture from the University of Delaware, an MS is Electrical Engineering and an MS in Atmospheric Science both from the University of Michigan, an MS in Military Operational Science from the Air Command and Staff College, and is working on an MA in biblical studies at the Reformed Theological Seminary.
Earl first encountered Christ at an Assembly of God church at the age of 17. His path to faith led him from charismatic churches to interdenominational churches, and finally to the reformed faith. His career observing the earth from space built a deeply emotional appreciation of the uniqueness of our amazing planet, and reformed theology provided him with the intellectual foundation for creation care. Earl’s focus is on “evangelizing” evangelicals, explaining why managing the earth’s environment is an important task of the church.
Earl has been married for 37 years to Chong-Pil White, a native of Songtan-Si, South Korea. They have three daughters, two grandchildren, and one cat. Earl and Chong Pil live in Leesburg,
Virginia with the cat.
