An understated superstar that casually moves about the musical radar, Darlene Zschech takes the accolades, the business, the recording and performing, every detail surrounding the music she writes and sings, in a steady stride.
An ordinary person made well-known by her faithful use of a God-given gift for music, Zschech is known worldwide as songwriter of contemporary worship for the Church and worship pastor at Hillsong Church in Sydney, Australia. But everyday life and personal passions hold her attention the most: her commitment to Christ, her family and her music, young women in crisis and the impoverished around the world, her home church, and her work there. I dont take a minute of it for granted. Im a very ordinary person, saved by grace and trying to serve God to the best of my ability, and I am very overwhelmed that I would be here today.
With her second solo project for INO Records, Change Your World, Zschech takes time to explore the songs she writes on the side, my little hobby, as she calls it, her opportunity to write and record songs that reflect her life and growth.
At the same time, Change Your World conveys to the Church that it can change the world by lifting Jesus up to the nations, taking the role of being his hands and feet seriously, and encourages believers to do their part where they are planted to serve the Kingdom of God.
A response to 15 years of work with Compassion International and the upcoming Hope Rwanda, the title track Change Your World relates Zschechs desire to impact the world from where she is. "We have a great opportunity to impact a nation filled with hurt, poverty and brokenness she says.
No matter what her day or projects bring, it all comes back to worship. Knowing her priorities, Zschechs heart still beats true for the church and she values the importance of writing timely songs for the church at large.
When it comes to expressing my heart for God through music and song, I understand more about listening to what my heart wants to say and also to what the church is longing to say. This takes time, listening and meditating on the Word of God, being very present at church and not being too reflective. Offering what needs to be said and what people want to say is a great responsibility, an amazing journey, and one that I completely treasure.

The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack in will. Constantly reach for your goal. Have a great day ahead!
