Launched in 2026, UpRight is a company designed to advocate for the narrative that Jesus is the better way, and it is the most correct, honorable, joyful, and masculine decision a man could ever make to follow Him.
We aim to lead people to Jesus, and testify to the ways He has changed each and every one of our lives.
UpRight was designed and launched by Aubrey Wall after a layoff in 2026, however, the group was originally formed in the fall of 2024 under the name “Atlanta Men’s Group.”
The vision for the group came after Aubrey, and his friend Jeremiah Allen, discovered a similar struggle of sharing gospel truth with some of their friends from college. While the group quickly formed and grew, a couple of opportunities continued to present themselves:
- A number of people didn’t understand the gospel, and while it is generally worked in, the study was tailored to professing Christians, not people considering faith, so some pieces seemed to go over some people/visitor’s heads.
- We all had the desire to share the gospel, but didn’t feel like the opportunities to share our faith were coming as frequently as we’d hoped for.
- Many of us still had strong relationships with people we loved that were not Christians.
Seeing these opportunities, and after spending months praying for career clarity, Aubrey started Refined by Fire– groups designed to present the gospel to unbelievers, leveraging relationships and a straightforward approach to presenting the gospel.
UpRight was also created to give the group a memorable name, image, and future of being a for profit company tailored to serve the Church.
We aim to serve the Church through the organizing we do, the products we provide, and the joy that we bring to the lifelong mission of leading as men through submission to Jesus Christ.
