Our Elders
Brandon Griffin, Elder and Pastor of New Hope, grew up in Tallahassee, Florida. Brandon and his wife, Beth, married in 1994 while students at Southwestern and asked the Lord to send them to a place of ministry where they could grow a family as well as a ministry. In January 1997 Brandon accepted the call to pastor New Hope Baptist Church and they moved to Marianna with great hope for the future. They now have 4 children, Calvin, Rebekah, Carey and Kate, and a ministry that is grounded in the teachings of the reformed faith. While his first love is Christ, his wife, children, and the church follow closely after. Brandon’s great desire is to obey Paul’s admonishment in Colossians 1:28-29.
