February 29- March 2 in Baldwin City, KS (Must commit to all three days and all sessions)
Immanuel Prayer Structures combines two healing modalities.
Structures are a psycho-drama process described in Bessel A. van der Kolk’s The Body Keeps The Score. Participants recreate their original, real family of origin and at times other significant figures in their lives by selecting individuals in the room to “enroll” as those members and then, through a guided process, say what they need to say, feel what they need to feel, hear what they need to hear, etc. Participants then go through their “ideal” family by having individuals enroll as “ideal mother, father, teacher, etc.” to provide what they know they actually needed in those critical memories and events.
Darrell combines the Structure concept with his Immanuel Prayer training and gifting to help the participants connect with Jesus to see, hear and feel what Jesus wants them to know about what characters they need to interact with, what memories they need to process and about the work they have just done. Structures by themselves are powerful and van der Kolk reports individuals having life changing encounters through them. When the participants also experience Jesus meeting them in those places, confirming the work they have done and even adding additional content, the healing is magnified.
One individual Darrell led through this process reports that since his IP Structure he has not had any anxiety or fear around anything to do with his mother or his father. Prior to his structure, fear, anxiety, confusion, etc. was his norm around anything even remotely related to his parents.
It is also the norm for every individual in the room, regardless of whether or not they are chosen to play a role, to make significant connections to their own story. Therefore, after each structure, Darrell leads a follow-up session where the group processes what came up for each of them.
Darrell takes six men through this process over three days. He also adds some significant material from his training with Dr. Omar Minwalla that helps men gain greater insight, understanding and empathy for the harm they have done to their wives through their struggles with deceptive sexuality.

Testimonies
From an October of 2023 Participant:
“What an amazing time of relational connecting with Jesus, other men, and our families of origin. Using the astounding technique of engaging the “real family member” and “the ideal family member” brought healing as I spoke words never spoke buried deep inside and they spoke words that my heart has hungered for.
Lots of time accessing our little boy too! With the help of Darrell’s wise guidance, my little guy was led to the comforting and healing arms of Jesus for a blessed encounter.
It’s difficult to know how Jesus will use this intensive to redeem my brokenness for His glory. But there are so many gems to journal on, thanks to Darrell’s recording private videos for my portion of the intensive. I look forward mining my personal video after I return home to go deeper into my healing.
Come rested, because the work is like running an emotional marathon – but it is well worth your time. It’s going to be something I believe I will never forget because of its unique impact on me.
Thank you, Darrell. You are who so wise, so knowledgeable, so connected to Jesus, and so humble. You created such a safe environment for me that I was able to travel back 60 years to engage my four-year-old boy.
Praise to King Jesus for this impactful time of healing.”
