Wayne began serving as pastor of Poplar Springs in 2012. He grew up in nearby Powder Springs and is a graduate of McEachern High School and Southern Polytechnic State University. Wayne is married to Cathy, his high school crush, and God has blessed them with four wonderful children - Walker, Reese, Ivy, and Jack.
Not long after marrying, God called Wayne to serve as the bi-vocational pastor of Yorkville Baptist Church. During this time it became clear God was leading him toward full-time ministry and in 2007 Wayne, Cathy, and Walker moved to Wake Forest, NC where Wayne would attend Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary to prepare. In 2008 Wayne graduated with his Masters of Divinity focusing on expository preaching and biblical counseling. Just before graduation, Wayne was called to pastor Elizabeth Missionary Baptist Church in Roseboro, NC.
In God's plan and timing He called them back home to serve at Poplar Springs. In 2013, Wayne graduated again from Southeastern this time with a Doctor of Ministry degree focusing on biblical theology and expositional preaching.
Wayne's desire in ministry is to faithfully lead others to delight and declare in the glory of God by being and making disciples of Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit.
