==Early life==
George Grubb was born in Edinburgh (in 1935) and was educated at James Gillespie’s Boys School, Edinburgh, the Royal High School, Edinburgh, the Open University (BA, 1974 and BPhil, 1983), the University of Edinburgh (BD, 1978) and San Francisco Theological Seminary (DMin, 1993). He was ordained a minister by the Methodist Church in Stoke-on-Trent in 1962, later transferring to the Church of Scotland. From 1962 until 1970 he served as a Chaplain in the Royal Air Force. He also ministered in Zambia and Malawi.
George once called for the monarchy to be scrapped and in 1998 criticised the Church of Scotland for being out of touch, saying that the only growth the Kirk was looking for was in bureaucracy.〔(Ex-Kirk minister favourite in Provost race )〕
