Welcome to our podcast!
My name is Derek L. Calhoun. I will be your host for the Kingdom influencing Podcast; however, I hope to transcend the title of Host over the next coming weeks. My goal is to be a Father figure to some, a coach, mentor and or Pastor to others and a funnel of wisdom to the listening audience. I plan to wear a variety of hats as needed to help you advance your daily lives. My goal is to encourage, inspire, inform, invigorate and impart. We will surf or delve into a wide range of topics including Business Development, Marriage and Dating, Leadership, Christian Living and Practical Theology just to name a few. I will also have special guest that will add value to our lives. Allow me to introduce myself. I dabbled around the field of law for a season. I then discovered education and my penchant for shaping the next generation. In education, I worked as an English Instructor, a Consultant, an Adjunct Professor, a Policy Advocate for Educational Reform and a Dean of Students. I spent 20 years helping and encouraging, people in the Northeast as the Pastor of the historic, Grace Baptist Church in Norwalk, CT and the Co-founder of New Vision International Ministries, a trend -setting, non-denominational church in Bridgeport, CT. Currently, I am an author of a new book, “Pressing Into the Power”, which should be released later this year. I am also an Executive Strategist, helping executives develop modern day solutions for modern day problems. At the end of the day, I am a man who has been around the block a few times, who is currently reinventing himself. I have a vested interest in seeing you succeed in life and I pray that you will let me speak life into your divine destiny.

As Christians, we are living beneath our privilege when don't understand our role in the earth, which is merely one of the realms of the Kingdoms of our God. We are not just people to be marginalized and made to feel less than in public venues, where we are either scoffed at or killed depending on the country of our residence. This is a reminder that we are a Royal Priesthood, servants of the High Priest Jesus Christ. Herein lies our opportunity to emerge with purpose as we begin to walk in the office of the priest.

Christianity is one of the most mishandled and misunderstood topics of our modern era. People are literally demonizing the faith based on the moral failures of a hand full of high-profile pastors or leaders who represent less than one percent of the pastors in the world. Moreover, soundbites and satires coming from Hollywood and scriptures taken out of context make for a demonic cacophony of misinformation. This episode focuses on providing a different and balanced vantage point shedding like on this misinformation.

This dynamic episode explores the racial divide in the United States. It surveys oral tradition, video technology, historical content, and an overarching theological framework. This is a serious and deliberate encounter that should give us roles and responsibilities that correspond with the will of God for our lives. Moreover, it provides us with several perspectives to at least consider. Thought-provoking!

This episode takes an in-depth look at the Spirit of Offense in the world. It highlights the fact that offense is unavoidable. You can not get around someone making you angry or the mistreatment of humanity to humanity. This is an element of life that is just as tangible as the nature of the air we breathe. Thus, we must develop systems for overcoming life and all of its issues.
