Pastor Darrell Phillips, Jr.

founding Pastor

Hello! I'm Pastor Darrell

I was born on the west side of Chicago and grew up in a south suburb called, Sauk Village.  I am a graduate of Liberty University with a bachelors in Theology and Biblical Studies.  I was ordained in 2020 at home church here in Charleston, and have started a brand new church in Illinois. I have a wife, Heather, and 3 Boys, Darrell III (Tre), Christian, and Trace! I have a heart to reach the lost for Jesus  — no matter what race or financial status. I believe in Kingdom over everything else. I believe that the Bible is the living word of God. I have been an active coach, teacher and pastor in this community since 2008, and am excited to continue supporting Charleston through Destination Church Ministries. Join Me!

Love God. Love People.

“And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength. The second is equally important: Love your neighbor as yourself. No other commandment is greater than these.” – MARK 12:30-31
