Conversations on living authentically and in community, in order to find others who also want something more and different from this world.
Why Subscribe?
Because you desire to live life differently. Being fully human is more than allowing ourselves to subject to the internal and external pressures of society, culture, religion, and/or family. I am searching for and desiring converse with folks living authentically in their calling to advance God's Kingdom in community.
If you agree that there is more to be desired from the way we do life, friendships, church, and even the way we love ourselves, then you will find relief, joy, insights, and community here. I start conversations weekly and I want to continue them with you. I’m coming from the perspective of a follower of Jesus, father of 10, Black American, Marine Veteran (Infantry), ‘pastor,’ ‘principle,’ and habitual overcomer. What’s your story? Together we can learn much from each other and make a positive impact in our communities.

What’s in it for you?
King & Co. Conversations are starting places to discuss life’s pressing topics, address our concerns with the way things are, ideate on the way things ought to be, in order to help one another make sense of our world. For those open to critically thinking through our assumptions, worldview, and frameworks, this platform will be a place for spiritual formation, personal growth, and transformational community. Lets explore through their own discomfort and trusting God's process for overcoming difficulties.
Who is Drexel?
As I said, a follower of Jesus, father of 10, Black American, Marine Veteran (Infantry), ‘pastor,’ ‘principle,’ and habitual overcomer. My experiences and perspective provide a unique lens in which I approach family, church, the Bible, and the culture. I have not been afforded the typical lifestyle and I am thankful for it.
As a follower of Jesus I often have to reject the spiritual, emotional, and economical coercion from church culture, friends, and my own unrealistic expectations so I can live life more abundantly in Jesus.
As a father of 10, I often have to choose quality over status quo.
As a Black American, I live with the reality that most people see the effects of racism as a detachable idea from the past rather than a cultural phenomenon in which people are susceptible to and influenced by, much less complicit in, today.
As a Marine Corps veteran, I will bring a unique blend of values, no-nonsense, resiliency, mission-focus, discipline, commitment, and leadership forged from life as an infantryman.
As a ‘pastor’ (I prefer the term shepherd), I lead our home church, disciple our children, and desire to advance God’s Kingdom.
As a ‘principle,’ I am very intentional with our parenting, education, while creating and taking advantage of teachable moments.
As a habitual overcomer, I tend to face obstacles (internal and external) head on. I often seek out new challenges so that my mind, body, and soul are in the habit of overcoming.
Why I Write
To find others who are also living life authentically, abundantly, and in community.
I am seeking to engage in a conversation with others and help make sense of the world in which we live. The pull to conform, the traps to ensnare you in worldliness are everywhere and it will take a community to keep us sane and growing.
Blessings,
King Family
