About this episode
We are honored to welcome Dr. Mark Wilbanks back to the pulpit at Aspire Church San Marco. Dr. Wilbanks faithfully served as our pastor from 1985 to 2002. During his 17 years of leadership, Aspire experienced a season of remarkable growth, good health, and significant expansion of our facilities and property. His tenure left a lasting spiritual and structural legacy that continues to benefit our congregation today. Now retired, Dr. Wilbanks brings 47 years of pastoral ministry experience, having served churches in Kentucky, Florida, Georgia, and Alabama. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Education from the University of Georgia and two seminary degrees, including a Doctor of Ministry. Mark is also the author of Along the Journey, a collection of essays, stories, and devotionals drawn from his life in ministry. He and his wife, Kimberly Perrin Wilbanks, have been married for 45 years. They now live in Birmingham, Alabama, and are the proud parents of Andrew (married to Lindsay, with three children) and Jordan (married to Beverly, with one son).
