Pastor Darren M. Little is the Senior Pastor of New Philadelphia Missionary Baptist Church, dedicated to preaching God's Word and leading others to a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. He studied at the Memphis Center for Urban Theology and Memphis Theological Seminary in Memphis, Tennessee, and is passionate about serving the church and the community with faith, love, and biblical truth.
"At New Philadelphia we honor the tradition of our fathers and mothers in the faith, while pressing forward in the transforming power of Jesus Christ. Come as you are — but don't leave the same way."
To lead every soul into a deeper relationship with Christ.
We exist to preach the gospel, disciple believers, love our neighbors, and send transformed people into the world as ambassadors of the Kingdom.
A church where tradition meets transformation.
To be a beacon in Memphis and beyond — anchored in the historic faith, open to the fresh move of the Spirit, and known for the love of Christ across every generation.
There is a place for you here.
From little ones taking their first steps of faith to grandparents mentoring the next generation — every season of life has a home.
Stories from our family.
“The moment I walked through the doors of New Philadelphia, I felt like I was home. God met me here.”
“Pastor Little's preaching challenged us as a couple to build our marriage on the Rock. Our whole home is different.”
“This is a church where tradition is honored and transformation is expected. It has grown my faith in ways I never imagined.”

Look for the red-brick sanctuary with the arched stained-glass windows.
Our historic sanctuary has stood on 533 S. Mendenhall Road for generations — a red-brick house of worship with beautiful arched stained-glass windows, built by the faith of families who came before us and kept open by the faithfulness of God.
Come see it in person this Sunday. We'd love to meet you.
