The Comeback chronicles the life of Pastor Darrin Williams, affectionately referred to as Slugger Roo, as told through snapshots of his life from boyhood to the present. It is a story of redemption and reformation as Darrin undergoes a complete 180 degree turn from the life of a gangbanger and drug dealer to one who fully established his belief and trust in God.

Get ready to be encouraged as Darrin takes you on a roller coaster ride as you, too, learn how to take each blow you have been dealt in life and fight the good fight of faith, rising in victory. The victory is won with your faith! Ding! Ding! The fight is on! It's time for the Comeback!
Autorenporträt
A native of Alton, IL, Darrin Williams faithfully attended church in his formative years but as a teenager he got off track and turned to the streets. From drugs to being a gangbanger to prison stints, his life was spiraling out of control. However, everything changed in December 2003 when he gave his life to God. His transformation came with a heart for the lost. He shared his testimony on several media outlets, including television, radio, and print publications. He has traveled across the nation as a Christian rap artist and it has opened many doors for him to minister on outlets such as TBN and JCTV. In 2012, his burden for lost souls lead to the launching of New Beginnings Outreach International (NBOI). NBOI started inside of a barbershop but soon outgrew that space and now call home a 4,000 square foot facility in Alton. Pastor Darrin is married to Michelle "Lady Roo," the love of his life. She aids him in family, business, and ministry. As leaders they use their gifts to share Jesus to all they encounter. Since surrendering his life to Christ, he has seen the Hand of God move in every area. This is just the the tip of the iceberg, as Pastor Darrin knows that as he continues to seek the Lord, nothing is impossible.
