I was on a mission trip to Moldova when I meet a translator from Ukraine named Larisha. Larisha kept saying to me, "Darrell, life is much harder in Ukraine. Please come help us." God planted those words in my heart and mind. It seemed day and night that God was calling me to begin a work in Ukraine. Well, I spent the next eighteen months looking for information on Ukraine. I read everything I could find on Ukraine, and I called many of those people whom I came across in my search. Finally I decided to go to Kharkov, Ukraine. However, I was asked to go to the Zhitomir Region instead because the need was much greater in that region. So it was in March of 1995 that God led me on my first mission trip to Ukraine under the ministry of The Master's Mission.
How did I come up with the name "The Master's Mission?" It came about the night I preached my first sermon. My grandfather Barnhill was in the congregation, and as he was leaving the church he said to me, "Son, keep your eyes on the Master." He always calls Jesus, the Master. I have never received better advice from anyone. Shortly after that first sermon, my grandfather passed away, but the name for The Master's Mission came from him. He belonged to Jesus, the Master, and this ministry belongs to Jesus, The Master!
As I look back on the last twenty plus years, I am humbled and grateful because of all that God has done through this ministry. I am also saddened when I think about Larisha, who was later killed in a car accident along with her husband and son. Her memory lives on through The Master's Mission because God used her in issuing a call to me to begin the work in Ukraine. For her role in this ministry I am truly grateful, and I know that God has special blessings for her in eternity.
In addition to using The Master's Mission in Ukraine, God is using The Master's Mission in Cuba, Guatemala, Mexico, and several states in the US to make a difference for His Kingdom's sake. For all that God has done, is doing, and will continue to do through The Master's Mission, we give Him The Praise!

Our Statement of Faith:
1. About God
God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three persons: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God.
Genesis 1:1, 26, 27; 3:22; Psalm 90:2; Matthew 28:19; I Peter 1:2; II Corinthians 13:14
2. About Mankind
We are all made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. We are the supreme object of God’s creation. Although mankind has a tremendous potential of good, we are marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called ‘sin’. This attitude separates us from God.
Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Isaiah 53:6a; Romans 3:23; Isaiah 59:1,2
3. About Eternity
We all were created to exist forever. We will either exist eternally separated from God by sin or in union with God through the forgiveness of sin. The place of eternal separation from God is called Hell. Heaven is the place of eternal union and eternal life with God.
John 3:16; Romans 6:23; Revelation 20:15; Matthew 25:41; Revelation 21:27
4. About Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven’s glory and will return again to earth to reign as King of Kings, and Lord of Lords.
Matthew 1:22, 23; Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1-5; John 14:10-30; Hebrews 4:14, 15; I Corinthians 15:3,4; Romans1:3,4; Acts 1:9-11; I Timothy 6:14, 15; Titus 2:13
5. About Salvation
Salvation is a gift from God to mankind. We can never make up for our sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can we be saved from sin’s penalty. Eternal life begins with the moment we receive Jesus Christ into our life by faith.
Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8, 9; John 14:6; John 1:12; Titus 3:5; Galatians 3:25; Romans 5:1
6. About Eternal Security
Because God gives us eternal life through Jesus Christ, the believer is secure in salvation for eternity. Salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of the Christian. It is the grace and keeping power of God that gives this security.
John 10:29; II Timothy 1:12; Hebrews 7:25, 10:10, 14; I Peter 1:3-5
7. About the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son as God. He is present in the world to make mankind aware of our need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding, of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. The Christian seeks to live His control daily.
II Corinthians 3:17; John 16:7-13; John 14:16, 17; Acts 1:8, I Corinthians 2:12, I Corinthians 3:16; Ephesians 1:13, Galatians 5:25; Ephesians 5:1
8. About the Bible
The Bible is God’s word to all mankind. It was written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is truth without any mixture of error.
II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:20, 21; II Timothy 1:13; Psalm 119:105, 160; 12:6; Proverbs 30:5
