Meet the Media Director

Bio: Stephanie Johnson Wright (Believer, Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Attorney, Pilot, Podcaster) 
Stephanie first came to know the Lord as a child at St. Matthew’s Apostle Church in St. Louis, Missouri. She formally committed her life to Jesus Christ in 1975 after a salvation experience in her kitchen in Lubbock, Texas. She has served in various churches since 1975 as an adult and youth Sunday School and Vacation Bible School teacher, Bible Study instructor, choir member, pastoral council advisor, and served on numerous committees. Stephanie actively supports CGM and the Church of Grace and Glory Media Ministries. She has been referred to as "Priscilla,” the wife of Aquila, two missionaries who traveled with the Apostle Paul. Beginning in 2005, she traveled on missions to the Philippines, South Africa, Israel, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, France, and throughout the United States. Through CGM, she continues to support local, national, and international ministries.

In 2012, Stephanie began filming, editing, and producing videos for CGM and other non-profit organizations. The first film to launch CGM’s media ministry was “Reflections of Faith,” the testimonial of her brother, Earl “Durkee” Johnson. She has helped CGM reach the world public access television and social media. She has taken courses in videography and editing at Hawkeye Community College in Waterloo, Iowa, and the Colorado Film School in Denver, Colorado. CGM’s film motto is, “We Promote Them Who Promote Him.”

Stephanie started CGM's first podcast on June 20, 2020. The podcast has reached 59 countries and 975 cities worldwide. CGM Presents podcasts cover every aspect of life from "A" to "Z" while applying Bible principles to 21st-century living. The presentations are informative and inspirational, weaving in a dash of humor to uplift and encourage listeners. Most of all, it leads the listener to a deliberate inquiry into their own relationship with the Lord. Click here to listen to the podcasts: CGM Podcasts
