Pastor Henry J. Payden, Jr. has been the Senior Pastor-Teacher of First Baptist Church of Malvern, Ohio (www.fbcmalvernoh.com) since July 21st, 1996. Preaching each Sunday, and teaching a Wednesday virtually now after the pandemic, traveling one hour south of his home in Akron, he is an expositor of scripture teaching faithfully the whole counsel of God's Word. He has taught several workshops, preached itinerantly, and is currently writing his first book. He has also sung with the Akron Symphony Chorus, and their Gospel Meets Symphony community event.
Pastor Payden is the Executive Director Church & Culture Conference Ministries, LLC, which is his passion for the Lord's command of church unity, and particularly as it pertains to elements that seek to divide the church, such as politics, societal sins and dysfunctions, racism & prejudice, biblical ignorance, to name a few. This is an effort to speak to all ethnicities regarding God's truth and to create a functionally effective conference and workshop outreach to engage, admonish, and incorporate the churches in Northeast Ohio and beyond to uphold the unity of the body without compromise.
He is married to Angela and they have four children and six grandchildren.
