Music and Ministry

Best known as the writer of songs like "Trading my Sorrows", "Let the River Flow", "Your Love is Extravagant", and "Freedom", he is considered by many to be a pioneer in the modern worship music movement.

Darrell's ministry started as a teenager in Olympia, WA: leading many of his fellow classmates to Jesus through personal testimony and nights of praise and worship in his parent's home. He has served as a worship pastor for churches in Washington, California, Oklahoma and Texas.

For the past 12 years Darrell has traveled the world alone and with the band ministering the gospel through worship, preaching, and prayer. His authenticity, genuine spirit and passion have connected with many as he ministers worship to the Lord. Darrell has seen numerous people come to know Christ and has encouraged many others to a deeper walk with God. People are healed, refreshed and renewed through Darrell's ministry.

Darrell's projects "Let the River Flow" and "Freedom" both garnered Dove award nominations and influenced a new wave of congregational worship. His newest project, "Nothing Less Than Everything", wraps his joy, passion and experience in a fresh and powerful sound. In Darrell's words, "It's my prayer that the Lord will use these songs to help people connect with Jesus in a life-changing way".
