Parkway's  history includes many ‘God’ moments, things inexplicable apart from God’s hand of grace. In March of 2002, with Dr. Brian Autry as pastor, 13 families from Swift Creek Baptist Church in Midlothian, VA were called out to start a church plant in Moseley, VA. Meeting in a local elementary school cafeteria, God began to build His church. In 2003, 37.5 acres of land was anonymously donated to Parkway less than a mile from the elementary school it was meeting in. In 2006, we began meeting at our current church campus.

In 2012, Pastor Brian was called out to be the Executive Director of the SBCV (Southern Baptist Conservatives of Virginia). We were excited to see Pastor Brian obediently answer God’s call on his life to pursue this role in our state’s convention. The following year, while we awaited the next Senior Pastor, Dr. Chuck Lawless of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary led the Parkway family as the Interim Lead Pastor. This particular year has been frequently referred to as the “Meantime” period. It was an encouraging time for Parkway to learn and grow, and we are continually grateful for Pastor Chuck’s leadership during that time.

In June of 2013, Pastor Ben Brammer served as Senior Pastor, and in March of 2017, Pastor Derek Futrell, formerly at Parkway over Worship and Missions, returned as our Senior Pastor.

The Parkway Family walked through the challenges of the pandemic and we learned that we longed for connection - to God and to one another through the church body.  Since 2020 we have launched 3 church plants, and we remain committed to sending and supporting missionaries all over the globe.  In 2022 we celebrated 20 years of ministry! Most recently, we are expanding our Ministry Operations Center (the Moseley campus) so that we can continue to know Him and make Him known among our neighbors and the nations!
