Out of Darkness

He is one of the most powerful pastors in America—respected, admired, and followed by millions.

But behind the sermons, the spotlight, and the global influence, David Padgett is dying inside.

Haunted by a secret that has hollowed out his soul, David knows his life has drifted far from the faith he preaches. When a crisis shatters his carefully constructed world, he is forced to confront the truth he has spent years avoiding: success cannot save him, and reputation cannot redeem him.

As darkness closes in, David embarks on a painful and dangerous journey—one that will cost him everything he has built but may restore everything that truly matters. Along the way, he faces betrayal, temptation, and the devastating consequences of hidden sin.

Out of Darkness is a gripping Christian thriller about brokenness, grace, and the courage it takes to step into the light. Award-winning author Darrell Case delivers a powerful story of faith under fire, perfect for readers who love suspense with eternal stakes.
