Warren Barfield (CD)

Meet Warren

It does not take long for the five year old and the fifty year old to be captivated by the music of Warren Barfield. The passion that is displayed as Warren plays his guitar, and sings his original heart-felt songs, is contagious. An energetic blend of acoustic rock, one is torn between clapping, dancing, or just closing their eyes and listening as his lyrics paint the picture of a believer’s ongoing relationship with Christ.

Warren is a talented singer, songwriter and musician, but these abilities alone do not define him. He is an anointed young minister who regularly stops strumming his guitar in concert long enough to relay Biblical truth. He also enjoys the time away from the stage, where he makes friends of his listeners. This has made him a favorite of both youth and youth workers around the country. His grounded advice seems to go well beyond his twenty-three years of life experience. "When I was growing up, I always said I would do something for God when I was older," Warren explains. "But God taught me that I didn't have to wait, that he has a ministry for me now and that He has a ministry for everyone, no matter how old or young they are. It's amazing how God has proved that to be true in my life."

Warren began singing and playing the guitar as a child in North Carolina, where he grew up as a pastor's son. As he reached his early teen years, he began traveling more extensively, wherever the doors were opened. It has now grown into a full time ministry. Warren seems equally comfortable doing hundreds of dates a year playing at churches and camps across the country. He has also captivated crowds of thousands during events such as national, regional, state and local youth conferences, and at various schools and colleges. Warren has also had the privilege of opening for a number of top Christian artists including Clear, Russ Lee, Scott Krippayne, Anointed and Crystal Lewis.

"It's unreal that I get to go places and sing songs that He gave me while I was praying in my room about something that I was going through," Warren admits. "And I get to see these songs, that I thought were just for me, minister to others from all walks of life. That's what keeps me going — I know God's involved!"
