Rikki Doolan

Gospel Rock n Roll artist Rikki Doolan has an amazing story of Gospel music taking him from a rock n roll lifestyle of debauchery, nightclubs, drugs and alcohol to a life filled with Jesus’s love and grace, as a Pastor and worship leader. “I was saved by the Lord Jesus Christ in my hometown of Middlesbrough in 2012. From 2007 onwards I would sing in nightclubs, pubs, and even on the streets. Along with that I lived a real rock and roll lifestyle with regular mass sessions of alcohol, and endless cocktails of drugs. My life was in serious danger of spiralling out of control or even worse, ending prematurely. One morning after a heavy all night of partying, drugs and booze I walked down a road feeling very worse for wear and stumbled across the most magnificent music coming out of a church building. It was worship music, and it gripped me right there in my steps, there was something in the sound of that music that was far greater than entertainment, far greater than manipulating your senses. I went into the building that day and found out that the something I was hearing was the worship of the Lord Jesus Christ. I was hooked, God’s grace had gotten into me, I received Christ three weeks later, joined the worship team two weeks after that, my life made a 360 turnaround for the better since that day, and I’ve been glorifying Jesus Christ since hallelujah!”
