Darrin and I both were in a think tank with a consulting group in 2010-12. He never exhibited what he now confesses to in any of our meetings or gatherings. In fact, he was funny and engaging. He did confess to deep times of depression but it was no big deal. He most recently was not only the pastor of Journey, but VP of Acts 29 Live an epiK life!Discover More...www.refocusing.orgA Mission in Formationwww.bluewaterinthekeys.com
