Calvin J. Golden

Destiny can never be denied by anyone, regardless to the path that is taken. Often time, the realization of ones destiny is a very time consuming and at times a difficult quest even when destined for greatness.Born and raised in Detroit, MI music has been a major part of Calvins life ever since he was a little boy. Being a PK (Pastors Kid) allowed him the opportunity to participate in all aspects of ministry. At the age of 13, Calvin was the church drummer and minister of music. This opportunity only heightened his passion and love for Gods people and all facades of music.In 1998, Calvin lost his mother and only a few years later his sister, and recently his father. This was and is a very hard time for him. However, this lost has only fueled his love and passion for God. He gained the strength he needed through God to making his mother, father and sister proud by focusing and pursuing Gods will for his life. Now stronger and more dedicated than ever, fully assured that this is his time and season, Calvin reveals his trials, triumphs, passion and love for God through his lyrics and music.Every generation has a praise and worship leader that brings an awareness of God's presence that is unprecedented. In addition, you can expect nothing less than the awesome power of God to guide us in this new millennium. With a sincere heart for praise and worship, Calvin J. Golden is continuing in the footsteps of his predecessors, leading his audiences into the throne room of God. As a veteran on the backside of the desert, but newcomer to the mainstream, moving to the forefront of gospel music, Calvin has an anointing that cannot be denied. Writing songs like: Thank You, Called To Worship, Lets Magnify, and I Love You, he is identifying with all ages and races of people. "Ministering the word of God through in song is what I know God has called/chosen for my life," says Calvin. When you experience a worship service or concert, you will immediately understand why.
