Aaron Little

Aaron Little (M.Div.) is an ordained minister whose work draws on the world of the Bible, church history, and the social sciences. He has lived and ministered across the globe—Eastern and Western Europe, India, East Asia, South America, Africa, and Native American reservations—and cultivated the art of hospitality at the farm and retreat center he managed for nearly a decade.

Then came the wilderness—six years of what he thought would be a sabbatical and turned out to be something else entirely. "Like Jacob on the wrestling mats with God," he says, "I found my strength not in the cultivation of my own knowledge or spirituality—but in the Spirit's healing and filling of my empty body completely spent on the mats of spiritual wrestling."

Don't Tread On Jesus began as a humble guiding light for his own children—and grew into an urgent invitation for fellow believers to join him in courageously reclaiming the radical, living Church. Aaron now leads Talmid in Chattanooga, TN—a movement rebuilding the spiritual family that the early Church took for granted—one healing hand, one shared table, and one disciple at a time.
