Theodore Sommers Henderson (14 May 1868 – 11 February 1929) was an American Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, elected in 1912.

Born in Millburn, New Jersey, he joined the New York East Annual Conference of the M.E. Church in 1893. Prior to his election to the Episcopacy, he served as a Pastor and as the Secretary of Evangelism of the M.E. Church
