The Kingdom Heart Podcast

Stephen & Hannah Oguagha are ministers in the Harlem Region of the NYC Church of Christ and they have two young boys. In this episode they share about what it was like growing up in the church with parents as disciples and what role their family played in them finding their own authentic faith. As part of our conversation we also discussed the reality of many people today coming from broken homes and not having an example of a Godly family. So then what role does the family of God play in this? What does scripture tell us about God's heart and vision for His family? To be clear, this episode is not just for parents but is for anyone who is desiring to learn about God's heart for family in scripture. Why is building true family (not just biologically), so important to God and the future of His Kingdom community on earth? Take a listen to find out.

What does undivided devotion look like as a single person within God's Kingdom? How can we go about finding our intrinsic value with God and not a partner? Duchana Gille was converted to Christ as a college student at Montclair State University in 2013 where she received her BA in Biology. Duchana has been serving as a Campus Minister for the NJ Campus Ministry for over five years now. She is currently pursuing a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling at Colorado Christian University with dreams of merging ministry and professional counseling together in her work. She has a passion for helping young women find faith in their college years, inspiring young women to utilize their strengths and gifts, and training student leaders to lead in God’s kingdom.

How can we actively bring the Kingdom to our communities? How do we go about imitating the ministry of Jesus in 2021? Paris Cunningham and his wife Zainabu lead the Mercer County Church of Christ in Princeton NJ and have been doing an amazing job of engaging the surrounding community. They are bringing church to the people in an inspiring way and empowering disciples to serve. Hope this episode inspires you to bring the Kingdom to whatever town or city you're in!

In this podcast we will aim to answer two questions: 1. What does it mean for the Kingdom of God to come on earth? 2. What does it look like to have a heart invested in His Kingdom? Join me on the journey. 

With so many other worldly things tugging for our identity/allegiance, (our background, nationality, race, ethnicity, political views, etc.), how can we fight to have our truest identity as being a people of the Kingdom?
