Meet Our President
Dr. Dana Carson
President
Dr. Dana Carson is a distinguished scholar and leader with 40 plus years of executive ministry experience and is affectionately known as “The Kingdom Voice”. Overcoming the challenges of Chicago’s inner city as a high school dropout, Dr. Carson defied the odds to become one of the most dynamic and scholarly preachers of our time. Dr. Carson holds three earned doctorates: a Doctor of Theology in Church Growth from Boston University, a Doctor of Strategic Leadership from Regent University, and a Doctor of Christian Psychology from Logos University.
In addition, he has earned four master’s degrees: a Master’s in Counseling and Guidance from Texas A&M University, a Master of Divinity from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary/Oral Roberts University, a Master of Science in Economic Development and Entrepreneurship from the University of Houston, and a Global Executive MBA from the prestigious Fuqua School of Business at Duke University—where he made history as the first full-time clergy to graduate from the program.
He also holds a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Wiley College, the historic HBCU featured in The Great Debaters. Dr. Carson’s theological expertise is widely respected in both ministry and academia. As a prolific author, he has written over 260 Kingdom-focused books and curricula, equipping believers with a sound and exegetical understanding of the Kingdom of God. Committed to raising up the next generation of theological leaders, he has also assembled a distinguished faculty of scholars to provide seminary-level training for those called to deepen their biblical and ministerial knowledge.
