Pastor's Biography

Bishop Carlton Christopher McLeod


Dr. Carlton C. McLeod

Senior Founding Pastor, Calvary Revival Church Chesapeake
Bishop, 2nd Diocese, Calvary Alliance of Churches and Ministries

Watch “His Faithful Journey”

Dr. McLeod is a native of Columbia, SC and grew up in Upper Marlboro, MD. In 1987, he enlisted in the United States Navy and reached the rank of O-3 before the Lord called him into full-time ministry. In 1997, Dr. McLeod and his wife Donna established Closer Walk Christian Fellowship. After much prayer, Closer Walk Christian Fellowship changed its name to Calvary Revival Church Chesapeake in 2005.

In 2002, Closer Walk Christian Fellowship was accepted into the Calvary Alliance of Churches and Ministries, which was founded by Bishop B. Courtney McBath. In 2004, Dr. McLeod was appointed Executive Director of Calvary Alliance of Churches and Ministries and in 2010, was appointed as Overseer of the Second Diocese of Calvary Alliance of Churches and Ministries where he serves pastors in the United States and the Caribbean Islands.  In July 2012, he was consecrated as Bishop of the Second Diocese and in this position he continues to serve the churches to the best of his ability.

Dr. McLeod is relentless in his pursuit to compassionately teach with a biblical worldview.  After spending his early years in ministry attempting to pull young people out of the kingdom of darkness with all the world’s methods, the Lord led Dr. McLeod back to the Bible to see the critical need for constant, fervent, and Spirit led biblical family discipleship. The D6 Reformation.org was created out of this desire.   His other passions in ministry include: 

  • Discipleship and the D6 Reformation: the intentional discipleship of our children by their parents.
  • Debt Free Living
  • The Covenant of Marriage
  • The Sufficiency of Scripture
  • Servant Leadership with Accountability, Integrity, and Obedience to God
  • Family Integration – Biblical Manhood/Biblical Womanhood
  • Missions

 Dr. McLeod coined the phrase “Jesus is Enough” in 2006.  Since that time, through his expository teaching style, Dr. McLeod has consistently taught and truly believes that Jesus is the answer to every question, the solution to every problem and the greatest breakthrough we will ever receive. Jesus is Enough for any and every situation! 

Dr. McLeod earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Science from Hampton University; a Master of Theology and Doctor of Ministry from Andersonville Theological Seminary. He and his wife Donna have been married since 1992 and they have two beautiful daughters, Dori and Aryanna and a son, Jonathan.
