Honored and humbled to preach once again at New Saint Paul Baptist Church in Jacksonville, FL—pastored by my mentor and former Dean during my Master’s studies in Theology. This marked my third straight year invited to bring the closing message for his anniversary, and every time I feel both the weight of the assignment and the blessing of the opportunity. His wisdom and encouragement continue to shape me deeply. Thank you, Dean/ Bishop John Guns , for trusting me with this responsibility. Grateful beyond words. 🙏🏾✨

Had an incredible weekend preaching all three services at Love First Christian Center in Riverview, Florida! 🙌🏾 Huge thanks to Pastors Jomo and Charmaine Cousins for the warm welcome and powerful ministry. This church is truly five-star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — the love, the energy, the spirit—everything was on point! Feeling blessed to be part of what God is doing here. Can’t wait to come back and do it again!

We’re Home. Part Two.

In this conversation, I share why strengthening the local church must remain the foundation while staying connected to something greater.

We talk about
• Leadership submission and the value of organized ministry
• How alignment within the Church of God in Christ creates opportunity beyond the four walls

I also reflect on
• Why conventions matter for our youth
• The importance of economic empowerment through collaboration
• How tradition and relevance can coexist in today’s church

🎬 Part Two premieres on YouTube tonight at 6:03pm. 🔔 Turn on notifications and join the conversation

We’re HOME. 🏠🔥

After years of prayer, growth, and obedience, Pastor Derrick L. McRae shares the heart behind returning to the denomination that shaped him—and what it means for ECC.

This conversation offers insight into structure and spiritual covering, building a ministry that lasts beyond one leader. It’s not just about a decision… it’s about alignment, legacy, and vision for the future.

There are moments in life when God calls you full circle.

The same denomination that shaped my childhood, nurtured my faith, and helped form my preaching, leadership, and ministry foundation is the place God has led me back to.

This decision wasn’t sudden. It wasn’t emotional.
It was prayerful, intentional, and led by divine alignment.

I sat down for an intimate three-part conversation to share why we’re returning, why now, and the excitement I feel about what God is doing next.

This isn’t about going backward. It’s about honoring roots while stepping boldly into the future.

Join me as part 1 of the conversation premieres LIVE on The Experience Christian Center’s YouTube on Saturday, January 24th at 6:03pm to hear my heart, my journey, and the vision ahead.
