FAITH & LEADERSHIP
Pastor Sam Collier embodies a brand of faith-driven leadership rooted in authenticity, resilience, and reconciliation. From his early days, being adopted as an infant and rising through personal adversity, to becoming a sought-after voice at mega-churches like North Point and Ebenezer Baptist, Sam’s journey has shaped a leader who understands both the struggles and triumphs of the human spirit. Today, as the Lead Pastor of Christian Cultural Center Atlanta (CCC Atlanta), he channels this depth of experience to guide his congregation and beyond with unwavering integrity. His leadership is grounded in a theology that seeks to heal divisions and foster unity across spiritual and cultural lines. His ability to speak truth with both firmness and compassion positions him not just as a pastor, but as a catalyst for collective transformation.
​
Building on this foundation, Sam’s faith leadership extends well beyond the pulpit. His nationally syndicated podcast, The Narrative with Sam Collier (on AURN), showcases his skill in drawing out authentic stories of growth, struggle, and redemption from notable figures across culture, music, and politics. These conversations explore how faith shapes identity, purpose, and influence. Whether connecting with CCC Atlanta’s weekly services or hosting impactful dialogues on air, Sam leads with a rare blend of pastoral warmth, intellectual curiosity, and cultural awareness. He engages audiences in ways that move hearts and shift perspectives. Pastor Sam’s leadership isn’t just admired, it’s trusted. In a time where many are deconstructing faith, he is helping to reconstruct hope, truth, and belonging. His ability to mentor rising voices, especially young Black men and women, reflects his heart for legacy and leadership development.
​
Whether through mentorship, workshops, or simply showing up authentically, Sam equips the next generation to lead with a combination of spiritual conviction and cultural insight. His leadership style is not performative; it is pastoral, prophetic, and purpose-filled. Every platform he steps on becomes a sacred space to call people higher.
