Have you ever sat in a room and wondered, "how did I get here?" Sometimes when we move into bigger spaces we can feel inadequate or like we don't belong. Mephibosheth in 2nd Samuel might have felt the same way when he got invited to the kings table. In this episode we talk about dealing with "imposter syndrome" and creating a more positive self portrait.

On this episode, I get to connect with Pastor, leader, and friend, Dr. Lamont Turner. I switch roles a bit here and I am interviewed on his show, "Kingdom Conversations." We talk about cultural transformation, ministry, burnout, and being a catalyst for change.  We covered so many awesome things that I just had to go back and share with our audience!

In this episode, Derrick shares updates on his personal life and connects with new audiences. Ephesians 4:32 is a topic of consideration and we explore the reason why Jesus kept His scars.

In this episode, Derrick is joined by actress and vlogger Patrice Boyce, and Stuntman/Producer/Actor/Writer, Scottio Arnold. They talk about letting their light shine in Hollywood, pursuing their purpose, and what it takes to start over again.

In this episode, Derrick is joined by Dr. Sharona Johnson author of "Letters from my Grandmother: Wisdom of Ages." We talk about Dr. Johnson's new book, the impact we leave behind, and just how powerful the lessons from our ancestors can be. Dr. Johnson also talks about her book signing on November 6th and how listeners can participate!

In this episode, Derrick approaches the concept of walking through the crowd, the benefits of noticing others, and how being authentic can connect us to our purpose. Jesus's miracles in the book of Mark chapter 2 and chapter 5 highlight what four questions we should ask when we walk through the crowd.

In this episode, Derrick defines the three advantages to pursue a God given purpose. 1 Chronicles 11 is explored as we find a mighty hero facing a lion in a snowy pit. Our threats may be more subtle, but there is a way to win!

In this episode Derrick shares stories on gratitude and how we can keep a 1 Thessalonians 5:18 perspective. Gratitude turns what we have into enough.
