Still Waters Online
A Weekly Online Gathering to Know God Deeply and Live Fully
Join us Wednesdays at 6:30 PM CST · Subscribe below for link · Starts August 6th!
We’re David and Christine DeGarmo. For over 30 years, we served in fast-paced ministry, pouring ourselves out for the work of God. But in 2021, we hit a wall of burnout that left us exhausted and empty.
In that season of brokenness and surrender, God met us in a profound way. He radically changed our lives by teaching us how to live slower, deeper, and closer to His heart. We came alive again with a new vision—to help people discover the kind of life we found in Him. Out of that journey, Still Waters was born.
Today, Still Waters is our ministry home where we gather for home church, host personal retreats, and offer experiences in nature and with our horses (Equine Assisted Learning) that help people encounter God’s presence.
Our passion is to help people discover and know God as Father and to live as beloved sons and daughters in the fullness of who He created them to be.

Meet the Pastor
David DeGarmo has served in ministry for over 30 years, pastoring and planting churches, training leaders, and equipping the Body of Christ across the United States, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East including restricted nations where he’s trained underground church leaders and strengthened persecuted believers.
A seasoned teaching pastor, David is known for his relatable storytelling style, humor, prophetic insight, and ability to unpack Scripture in a way that is both deep and easy to understand. His teaching is Bible-centered, authentic, and always aimed at helping people experience God personally through His Word.
As a U.S. Army veteran, David brings strength, discipline, and strategic vision to ministry. He has helped churches of all sizes grow by developing discipleship teams, small group ministries, and coaching leaders and pastors.
David is a deeply relational shepherd who has walked closely with families through the most meaningful moments of life—forming men as husbands and fathers, dedicating their babies, baptizing new believers, officiating weddings, and standing with them in times of loss and grief.
David studied at The King’s Seminary and is a licensed minister. He’s also been a husband to Christine for 35 years, and together they’ve raised four grown children. His passion is to see people encounter the love of God, understand their identity in Christ, and grow into mature disciples who live out their faith boldly and joyfully.
