WALNUT RIDGE, Ark. – Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter Zach Williams made a surprise appearance at Williams Baptist College on Wednesday, thrilling the crowd at WBC’s weekly chapel service with several songs, as well as his testimony.
WBC students, faculty and staff had been told only that a “special guest” would present the chapel program Wednesday, and the crowd responded enthusiastically as Williams was introduced by Director of Campus Ministries Hayes Howell.
Williams is nominated for a Grammy Award for “Chain Breaker,” a chart topping contemporary Christian song which Williams co-wrote. He performed the hit and several other tunes for the crowd in WBC’s Manley Chapel, and he also gave his testimony of coming to Christ after years of drug and alcohol abuse.
The chapel service concluded with many of the students coming forward to pose with Williams for a group picture.
Williams is a northeast Arkansas native, and he lives in Jonesboro.
WBC is a Christian liberal arts college in Walnut Ridge.
