From the pre-planning to the follow-up, Darin's organized approach and professionalism helped us maximize the opportunity for our first Marriage Weekend event. His excellent facilitation engaged and entertained our couples. Darin created a culture of openness with the presenters and participants that led to transformative conversations at the tables and between spouses. So grateful for their investment in the marriages at City Church!
After two decades of ministry, I haven’t met anyone I trust more than Darin & Shayna when it comes to the intersection of marriage, care, and discipleship. Every moment they shepherd is encouraging and practical with a Gospel heartbeat. They have been a gift to so many already, and they will be a gift to you, too.
Darin and Shayna are transparent and honest with their story. They teach the truths of Scripture and helped us apply this to how we understand marriage and interact with each other. If we had to use one word to describe them, it would be encouraging!
Darin is an exceptional leader with a genuine heart for strengthening marriages. His deep understanding of the relational dynamics, combined with his commitment to Gospel care, creates an environment where couples can truly grow and bear lasting fruit.
Darin "has been a tremendous help to my personal walk with God and to my marriage. He’s a first-rate communicator and he possesses the ability to identify the heart of a problem and then help you to create an effective and simple solution."
