Wright Humble
Groups Pastor
In 1999, Wright discovered that anything was possible when he was fortunate enough to marry his best friend, Kristie. Since then, they have made a lifetime of memories together with their two daughters, Lauren and Grayson, and their son, Jackson Wright. By the fall of 1992, God’s call was clear. Wright devoted his life to whole-heartedly pursuing that call. After graduating from the University of Georgia, he earned a Master’s of Divinity degree with a specialization in leadership from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. He has served the Lord through the local church for over 30 years!
Wright’s passion is his family and exploring the unlimited facets of God’s grace! He enjoys writing and producing songs and UGA football. Unfortunately however, he spends most of his free time spreading mulch and knocking down weeds… but she wanted the corner lot!
