Reverend Isiah Bennett Jr. is a skilled preacher and teacher anointed by God. He has been preaching and teaching the word of God for over twenty-two years. He started as a deacon at Greater New Hope Baptist North Little Rock, Ar. He was a dedicated deacon who stood by and supported the vision of his pastor. In this position he learned all aspects concerning the administration and day to day operations of the Church. This experience was invaluable when the Lord called him to pastor. He pastored the flock at Shady Grove Baptist Church in Tucker, Arkansas for two years. Through the Leadership of the Holy Spirit the Church experienced spiritual and physical growth during his tenure. In September 2007 the Lord moved him to Greater New Hope Baptist Church in Little Rock. Rev. Bennett believes the Bible is the infallible word of God and should be followed completely. He is a member of the Greater Little Rock Baptist Pastoral and Ministers Conference. He has studies in Old testament and New Testament survey Basic Theology, Fundamentals of Faith, as well Christological preaching, which is seeing Christ throughout the whole Bible. He is self- educated through the divine power and inspiration of the Holy Spirit. He is articulate in the hermeneutics which is the methodological breakdown of the Holy scriptures.
