NewSpring Church is a multi-site, megachurch with 14 campuses across South Carolina with its main location in Anderson, South Carolina. It loosely affiliates itself with the Southern Baptist Convention.[1][2][3]

History[]

The church was founded in January 2000 [4][5][6][7] with a handful of people in a living room. Since then, the church has grown to 14 locations across the state of South Carolina. In addition to gathering at multiple campuses across the state, NewSpring has established an online campus to connect with individuals who cannot join in person.

NewSpring’s vision is to be a life-giving church, marked by the presence of God, activated to impact others. They believe in trusting God’s promises, pursuing uncommon unity, making bold moves, having a kingdom mentality, and showing visible love.

Announced July 10, 2016, founder Perry Noble was removed as Senior Pastor by the church's leadership team effective July 1, 2016 for personal issues related to alcohol and neglect of his family.

A year later it was announced that NewSpring would be led by a team of Lead Pastors (Brad Cooper, Shane Duffey, Michael Mullikin, Tyler Tatum, and David Hall) and Teaching Pastors (Brad Cooper, Clayton King, Dan Lian, and Meredith Knox) would share the stage on Sundays. The church also instituted a team of elders composed of a group of members from different NewSpring campuses.

Campus[]

In addition to the church in Anderson, NewSpring's other locations in South Carolina include, Aiken, Charleston, Clemson, Columbia, Northeast Columbia, Florence, Greenville, Greenwood, Hilton Head, Myrtle Beach, Powdersville, Lake Wylie, and Spartanburg.
