Early life and career

He served as the church planter for King of Peace Episcopal Church in Kingsland, Georgia. He was elected on November 16, 2019, on the first ballot. Logue was serving as Canon to the Ordinary of the Diocese of Georgia and a member of the Executive Council of the Episcopal Church when elected.[4] Logue succeeded Scott Anson Benhase on May 30, 2020, when he was consecrated as a bishop in Christ Church in Savannah, Georgia. Because of COVID-19 precautions, his ordination was conducted with a minimal number of people in attendance and was broadcast via livestream on the Internet.[5] The Logues continue to write books together including, A Spring in the Desert: Rediscovering the Water of Life in Lent from Forward Movement[6] and Feast of Feasts: Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany with St. Francis from the Diocese of Georgia.
