Our Church History
TPC Darden began in 1916 when Ed and Minnie King prayed for God to raise up a church in Darden, TN. Their faith and persistence led to powerful revivals, and over time, a thriving church was established. In 2005, after decades of growth, the congregation moved into our current building, where God continues to bless His people today.
In 2024 after 30 years of faithful leadership, Bishop Ronnie Parrish transitioned, and Pastor Jon Mark and Sis. Jessie Parrish stepped in as Senior Pastor and First Lady with a renewed vision for revival and community.
We exist to help people connect with God and reach their full potential through our mission:
At TPC Darden, everything we do is about others—advancing the Kingdom of God by living out: LOVE + SEEK + SERVE = REACH.
