His extensive CV in working with churches across the south and northeastern parts of the country includes, but not limited to : Berean S.D.A. and Ebenezer Baptist both of Atlanta, GA. Oakwood College S.D.A. of Huntsville, AL., Pleasant Green Baptist, Christ Church, Hillcrest S.D.A., Riverside S.D.A., Cleveland Street Baptist, Foster Chapel M.B. all located in Nashville, TN., Miller Memorial Baptist, True Gospel Tabernacle, North Philadelphia S.D.A., Enon Tabernacle Baptist, Germantown S.D.A., and Ebenezer S.D.A., all located in Philadelphia, PA., Salem Baptist-Jenkintown, PA., and The Abyssinian Baptist Church of New York City, Dr. Rev.

Darrell worked as either musician, minister of music, director of music, organist, and pianist at the previous churches.
In 2002, Dr. Charles F. Reese, Academic Dean of the Gospel Music Workshop of America, founded by the renown, Rev. Dr. James Cleveland, invited Darrell to teach the class, "Recommended Salary for Church Musicians". It was from this class, and the help of the students, and Darrell's present and past experiences as a church musician practitioner on how this book originated. Although "mega churches" are on the rise, many churches are dying because of "traditional" paradigm's concerning church music and structure of worship.
Darrell affirms, "Satan is very angry about this book, but God is in control". It has been confirmed throughout my life since taking on this assignment by God. When I finished the book, one Friday evening, I took extremely ill with chills, and shaking uncontrollably. The next day, I called my doctor and was diagnosed with cellulitus in my left leg. Nevertheless, I was commissioned by God to complete my assignment and with His help it is completed. "Thank you Jesus~!" Darrell encourages everyone with an assignment given to them by God to complete it! God rewards obedience.
