Have you ever had a dream? Have you ever felt as if there was more in you than the life around you? Maybe those dreams were shattered by unexpected circumstances. I have good news: God’s greatest desire is to make you yet again another vessel.
Jeremiah 18: 4 And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter:
So he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.
Sherry Damron was molested as a small child: this severely changed the clarity of the lenses through which she would view and relate to “life.” She was raised with a love for God and a respect for the things of God; however, religious legalism fueled her desire to escape rules, laws, and control. In an attempt to do so, at the age of eighteen, she married the only boy she had ever dated. In spite of the abusive marriage, Sherry’s dream was still to be a mother. However, because of endometriosis coupled with abuse, she was unable to bear children. After seven hospitalizations, the marriage eventually ended in divorce. For the next ten years, she lived a life very different from that of her upbringing. She was overshadowed by a world of drugs, alcohol, and prostitution. This new “lifestyle” seemed to swallow up everything she had once held dear.
In 2001 Sherry, as a favor to a friend, attended a church service with no intention of doing anything but that: attending. As God would have it, His conviction fell, and she found herself at an old-fashioned altar, but this time she had an encounter with God instead of with religion. Little by little, God began to write His desires on the tables of her heart. Unfortunately, those same “religious, man-made laws” that once drove her from God would continue to restrain her. She wasn’t allowed to sing or be in position of leadership in the church due to her “background” of divorce and prostitution. But something was different this time. This time she was fortified to stand as she developed a relationship with her Savior.
In 2004 she was asked to take temporary custody of a family members four-year old little boy, Sterling. Child services warned her of the pitfalls of caring for a child who had lived in neglect and been exposed to drugs. She was not moved by the challenge, and trusted God to be bigger than any problem they would face. Little did she know: God was answering prayers from long ago. In the blink of an eye Sherry had a son who gave her a reason and purpose beyond anything she could have ever imagined. This was the beginning of a supernatural redirection of her life and living proof that God puts our broken pieces together again.
In May of 2006, Sherry’s grade school sweetheart, Dwayne Damron returned to their hometown after twenty-two years in the US Air Force. Dwayne and Sherry were married in October of 2006, and they adopted Sterling in December of the following year. Everything that satan said “COULD NOT BE” - WAS!!! Sherry was a wife and a mother; the only thing that was missing was the fulfillment of God’s call to ministry. However, her past continued to resurface. Early in their marriage Dwayne notice something about his wife that she had desperately tried to hide. It was her struggle with reading and comprehension. Little did he know, Sherry had been in remedial classes in school because of this inability. It was unknown at the time that the root cause was dyslexia. He began teaching and encouraging her to push past the boundaries of her fears. He had no idea he was forging the way for a new future and a ministry that would touch the world.
God’s ministry through this broken lady was birthed in 2009 with the release of her first CD: "For Such A Time As This," which opened the door for the next phase of God’s redemption. She released her second CD in 2011: “Do It Anyway,” writing and composing all ten songs on the album, including a special rendition of Loretta Lynn’s number one hit: “You Ain’t Woman Enough.” Sherry is the only person who has ever been given permission and Mrs. Lynn’s blessing to rewrite this song, which she entitled “You Ain’t Devil Enough.”
In 2011 Sherry began filming her TV/Social Media programing in a borrowed building which quickly became “The Sanctuary/Studio” for Sherry Damron Ministries. Her TV program: “I Still Believe” was birthed through local TV stations. She then began ministering on Christian TV networks, including Impact on Direct and Dish TV, Northland Cable, GEB Network, DOVE Network, on radio, and in churches and arenas across the country.
Sherry Damron released her first book, Undone, in 2015, which is a miracle in and of itself considering her struggles with reading. She released, to radio, the single, “I See The Lord,” from her sophomore album in 2016. Much to her surprise, the song began to top Gospel charts around the nation. In 2017 Sherry released “God Bless America Again” to radio which is a re-write of the original 1969 Bobby Bare single. “God Bless America Again” landed at #9 on the Country Gospel charts. Sherry has had numerous songs to chart in the top twenty since her first release in 2016. Sharing her music, and producing music videos is a passion, and life-long dream fulfilled in which millions are being blessed.
Dwayne and Sherry hear the growing cry for Truth from a generationsearching for something REAL and refusing to settle for fake. It is HIS BODYforming and readying to BE the glorious church: The Bride of Christ. Because of Sherry’s past, she understands their confusion and their wounds, and operates in an anointing that reaches beyond what others only “see,” and into what only God can heal!
God is powerfully ministering through this anointed woman after His own heart.
Sherry ministers in churches for revivals and single services. She also does Women’s Retreats, Drug and Alcohol ministry, and teachings for abused women and children.
