Truett McConnell trustees elect
Larry Lyon as next president
ALPHARETTA, Ga. (Christian Index) — The Truett McConnell University Board of Trustees on Feb. 2 unanimously elected Larry Lyon as the university’s ninth president during a special-called meeting at the Georgia Baptist Mission Board administration building in Alpharetta. Lyon, who currently serves as senior vice president for business administration at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary (NOBTS), succeeds Interim President John Yarbrough, who has led the university since June 2025. Lyon said he did not initially seek the presidency but felt led to pursue the role after prayerful consideration. He expressed optimism about the university’s future and its role in serving Georgia Baptist churches. “Truett McConnell is positioned to play a vital part in the work of Georgia Baptists,” Lyon said. “This is a place where students can receive both spiritual formation and vocational training so they can thrive for the kingdom, no matter where God leads them.”
