Darren Tyler

After twenty years as an executive in the music industry Darren embarked on a new journey when he founded Conduit Church in Franklin, TN. Under Darren’s leadership Conduit quickly became a platform from which global mission work has been the center piece. He currently serves as the lead pastor of Conduit while splitting his time planting churches in developing nations. To date, Conduit has planted over 50 churches in South America, Africa, and Asia with a strategy for 100 more in Southeast Asia by 2035. It was a long journey from the back stages of America’s largest concert venues to the back woods of some of the most remote places on earth. But, as Darren often says, the easy places are taken. Darren is an author and communicator who has spoken at churches and conferences across the United States and the world. He has been married thirty years to Shannon and is the father of four grown children, Madilyn, Ashleigh, Lauryn, and Ethan. Shannon and Darren live just outside of Franklin on a 25-acre homestead that takes up any time he might have had for hobbies.
