Hunter grew up in a small town called Slapout, Alabama. Hunter came to know the Lord when he was 15. He loves to share the love of Christ with others, and during high school he went on several mission trips to Brazil, Nicaragua, and Ecuador. These trips, coupled alongside faithful men in his life pouring into him, solidified the call to vocational ministry he sensed on his life.

Hunter earned his M. Div. from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in 2026, where he also earned a certificate in Greek Exegesis. Hunter’s heart is to see young adults grow in their relationship with Jesus through discipleship to serve him for a lifetime of faithfulness.

Hunter met his wife Bella in college, and they were married in October 2023. They strive to reach others with the Gospel by hosting people in their home. The Wessons enjoy a good cup of coffee, good food, and going on walks with their dog Blue. Hunter is also a passionate fan of the Green Bay Packers, Premier League soccer and Manchester United, and loves people!
