About New Heights
At New Heights Church, we believe in the Holy Bible as the inspired Word of God, and the foundation of our faith.
About
Our Faith
New Heights Church subscribes to the doctrinal statement of The Baptist Faith and Message as amended by the Southern Baptist in the year 2000.
We band ourselves together as a body of baptized believers in Jesus Christ, personally committed to sharing the good news of salvation.
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
Hebrews 11:1
About
Church Leadership
Following the example given in scripture for church governance, New Heights is led by Elders and Deacons who serve the needs of the congregation. Contact us for more information about the organizational structure of the church.
Let the elders who rule well be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in preaching and teaching.
1 Timothy 5:17
About
Our Pastor
Richard Fleming, Jr.
It is with great appreciation to the Lord and His leading in my life that I find myself serving here at New Heights Church.
I was born and raised in Pontotoc, MS. My spiritual birth also took place there when I believed in the Lord Jesus Christ at age 14. I have been married to my beloved Patrice Mallory since 1988. We have been blessed with three good and gifted children, Ross, Rebecca, and Ryan. Our oldest son, Ross, is married to Rebekah, and they have brought us four grandchildren, Audrey, “Rock,” Brielle, and Ransom.
My passion is ministering the word of God to help people to KNOW, GROW, and GO be an effective witness for the Lord Jesus Christ.
My life’s verse is Isaiah 40:31.
But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31
What a befitting Scripture verse for New Heights Church. As we wait on the Lord together, He will enable us to go to New Heights, mounting up with wings as eagles in fulfilling the Great Commission of making disciples and advancing the kingdom of God.

New Heights strives to worship “in spirit and in truth” as the Bible instructs. We believe music is a gift that allows us to give praise to God, while memorizing and reminding ourselves of Biblical truths. Therefore, we use a wide variety of music, from traditional hymns to contemporary praise and many eras in-between as long as the lyrics are biblically founded.
Gospel-centered expositional preaching with practical application to help you live out your faith.
New Heights Church believes in The Holy Bible as the inerrant word of God — written by men, divinely inspired, as God’s revelation of Himself to man. We commit to and agree with the Baptist Faith and Message.
We are voluntarily affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention and South Carolina Baptist Convention. Learn more about our affiliations.
