Author Caleb Gordon: Change The Room-Don't Let the Room Change You

Tom Davis
Changing the room rather than letting the room change you is about intentional influence.
Appearing on COMMUMNITY CONNECTION, pastor and author Caleb Gordon, author of Change The Room-Don't Let the Room Change You, said,"It means walking into any space—whether a meeting, a family gathering, or a casual conversation—with a mindset and spirit that lifts, steadies, and encourages those around you."
He added, "Instead of passively absorbing whatever mood, negativity, or chaos is already in the atmosphere, you choose to set a higher standard. Your presence, words, and actions become a thermostat, not a thermometer—shaping the climate instead of merely reflecting it."
In the book, Caleb said that this doesn’t require being the loudest or most dominant person in the room; it requires conviction, consistency, and the courage to lead with character even when it’s easier to blend in.
In addition to the book, Change The Room-Don't Let the Room Change You, which is available at www.amazon.com, Caleb speaks to groups of all kinds about the book and lessons it holds.
