About Bishop Clyde Harden
Bishop Clyde E. Harden Jr. is the founder and senior pastor of the New Destiny Church in Coldspring, Texas. Bishop Harden founded the New Destiny Fellowship Church in September 2010 on love, God’s word, and a passion for helping people. He believes in the empowerment of people therefore, his motto for New Destiny Fellowship Church is “Change your mind so that you can change the world.” Bishop Harden believes that when you start changing your mind about the way you think about your family, friends, food, finances, faith, and fun, you can then help someone else change through your spiritual commitment and personal relationship with God.
