  • Summary

  • Pastor John P. Perkins (Jackson, MS) and Pastor Matthew J. Watts (Charleston, WV) discuss pressing issues facing America’s Black communities and society in general. As preachers who are also pastors, Perkins and Watts recognize their responsibility for the flock, the community, the neighborhood, and society.


    We’re gonna laugh, we’re gonna have fun, but for the most part, we’re going to engage a thought process that shows how the Kingdom of God is not just something of antiquity but has practical relevance today.

    Jade Simmons, Candidate for President
    Apr 27 2021
    Jade Simmons joins Pastor Perkins and Pastor Watts to discuss her candidacy for President of the United States. Candidate Simmons explains her goal to bring servant-leadership from a non-partisan leader, and why she believes this is so much better for the future of the country than looking for a political savior. Simmons rejects the idea of gradual, symbolic change when real and tangible change is needed, and she offers examples related to education, criminal justice, and healthcare. She explains how she intends to bring vision and her unique leadership capacity as a Black woman to involving the American people in healthy governance.

    Pastor Perkins and Pastor Watts are joined by Rev. Cecilia Williams, the President and CEO of the Christian Community Development Association (CCDA) to talk about place-based people-focused community development. Rev. Williams shares her encouragement and disappointment in how the church responded in Minneapolis this summer. They discuss the importance of developing home-grown leaders in the practitioner-based CCDA movement, along with the necessity of engaging systems and structures. Pastor Watts discusses truancy and the schoolyard to prison pipeline as a practical example of a system in need of reform, and the long slow work of making change.


    Rev. Williams highlights the CCDA Collective that will take place October 1-3, 2020: The World has Changed, but Our Mission Remains the Same.
