What leaders say about griff

Josh Ward | Next Gen Pastor, West Jackson Baptist Church. Jackson, TN.


“Griff is one of the most dynamic communicators I’ve ever heard live. His ability to connect with teenagers from the platform as well as off is one of his greatest strengths. He does well to preach the Word with intentionality and also gives gospel invitations with integrity. He doesn’t pull punches nor does he manipulate. I feel a great sense of confidence and trust when we host him to speak at our student events.”

Jerrad Edmonds | Family Pastor in Shreveport, LA | Co-Director of Camp 318

“Griff is one of a kind! His energy electrifies the room, his passion for God's word is contagious, and his humility captivating! Students are drawn to Griff's authenticity, humor, and zeal. He engages students, counselors, leaders, kitchen staff, camp maintenance workers, and whoever crosses his path! He is an inspiration to weary leaders & a life line to those that need to hear that Jesus loves them and has a plan for their lives! We love Griff!”

Hayden Carter / Student Pastor / Fellowship Church | Prairieville, LA

“My guy can preach! I have had the opportunity of hearing Griff preach at both Camps and DNOWs over my years in ministry. Griff is raw, authentic, and very engaging. I have asked Griff to come preach for our regional DNOW multiple years in a row and every time he exceeded expectation. From the first conversations when booking Griff to the very end, Griff’s focus was to reach our students where they were. Can’t recommend enough!”

Mike Fielding, Student Pastor. Live Oak Baptist Church | Denham Springs, LA

“I have known Derek Griffon for years. I have used him as a speaker for DNOW’s, conferences, revivals, and camps. There is a reason I keep coming back to him. He is an amazing communicator of the gospel and does not hold back. Fearless and confident. He has an amazing gift to connect with people and share God’s word with passion.”

Jorge Munoz Associate Head Football Coach/ Tight Ends Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns

“Pastor Griff brings incredible energy, passion, and insight every time he speaks. Our Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns football team was fortunate to hear his message this past fall, and both our players and coaching staff were fully engaged from start to finish. His ability to connect, motivate, and inspire left a lasting impact on our program. The room was completely captivated throughout his message, and the motivation carried well beyond that day.We look forward to having Pastor Griff back with us again soon.”
