One of the international gospel community’s most successful and prolific contemporary worship leaders, Darlene Zschech is best known for her work with Australian Pentecostal megachurch Hillsong. Described as a “pioneer of the modern worship movement”, Zschech has composed some of the genre’s most enduring songs, including the Dove Award-nominated “Shout to the Lord,” which since its release in 1997, has become a weekly staple for churchgoers around the globe. In addition to her numerous gold albums, Zschech has penned four devotional books, and serves, alongside her husband, as a Senior Pastor of Hope Unlimited Church on the Central Coast of New South Wales, Australia. ~ James Christopher Monger
