Heart of a Healer

Pastor Darnell Hill is the lead pastor of The Cure Church St. Louis, a ministry he pioneered with his wife, Sherell, in August 2017. Together, they have served the Greater St. Louis region with a vision to see lives healed, families restored, and communities transformed through the power of the gospel.

Pastor Hill’s passion is helping people find restoration through faith, truth, and connection. With a bold, compassionate voice, he speaks directly to the deep wounds many carry — including trauma, rejection, and spiritual disconnection — offering a message of hope that is rooted in biblical truth and lived out in real relationships.

Whether preaching from the pulpit, mentoring young leaders, or serving in community spaces, his ministry flows from a heart that has been shaped by trials, refined by faith, and grounded in purpose. He believes that true healing doesn’t come from hiding our pain but from bringing it into the light of God’s presence and grace.
