Scott Hubbard

Scott Hubbard serves as Managing Editor for Desiring God, where he oversees the day-to-day publishing operations of the ministry. He is also the author of more than two hundred articles that aim to kindle more joy in God through Jesus, especially for those who feel stuck in darkness.

For several years, Scott worked as a college minister and magazine editor before attending Bethlehem College and Seminary in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where he received his Master of Divinity in 2018. Shortly after graduating, he joined the ministry of Desiring God as an editor and teacher.

Scott met his wife, Bethany, while finishing seminary, and the two married in 2019. They joined All Peoples Church the same year, and since 2021 Scott has served as one of the church’s lay pastors. When he is not working at Desiring God or serving at his church, Scott explores the lakes, rivers, woods, and playgrounds around the Twin Cities with his three sons.
