The Purpose of The Law

March 29, 2019 / Derrick Hurst / 0 Comments

I’m not a huge rule breaker but sometimes laws are just a pain! Some days the speed limit is more of a hindrance than a help. Those double yellow lines in the middle of the road are often positioned at just the wrong places! Some laws however are there for good reasons and serve very helpful purposes! But what is the real reason for the law? No not the speed limits or the driving laws. Not the ones that say it’s illegal to steal from the local convenience store. But what’s the purpose of the laws we find in the bible? Why did God give them to us anyway?

Love Your Enemies

February 25, 2019 / Derrick Hurst / 0 Comments

What does it mean to live like Jesus? What does it mean to love our neighbors and even our enemies? I think we’re often content with not doing them harm but loving them goes so much farther than that. Listen to this week’s message on loving your enemies.

Nobody Loves Me Like You

November 19, 2018 / Derrick Hurst / 0 Comments

Have you ever considered all of the things that you have in life? Ever thought of the blessings that surround you everyday? How many of them pass you by on a regular basis? Do you take in the sunrise or marvel at the wonder of how the moon revolves around the sun? Do you consider the talents and abilities you have that make you successful at your job? Or the family and friends who love you and care for you? Continue reading

God Only Knows

October 30, 2018 / Derrick Hurst / 0 Comments

Imagine a day when you feel like you’ve been dragged behind a truck. You’re physically beat down. Emotionally worn out. Mentally exhausted. You have nothing left. You’ve been pretending for a long time. YOu’ve pretended that you have it all together. You’ve pretended that everything was good, but you’re not fooling anyone – yourself included! Continue reading

Dream Small

August 27, 2018 / Derrick Hurst / 0 Comments

Big! Grand! Huge! Enormous! Impact! Passion! Power! These are words that we try to claim. We want to make a big impact int the world. We like to have credit given for our accomplishments. We try to make the biggest splash in the pool, build the biggest tower, amass the most money, drive the best car, live in the most beautiful house and have the greenest yard. But what if the big things weren’t the point? What if the small things, the everyday, simple and even mundane things could actually have the biggest impact in the long run? Continue reading

Reckless Love

April 30, 2018 / Derrick Hurst / 0 Comments

Our culture tells us that being reckless is a back thing. When you’re reckless, you generally are not cautious. You throw caution to the wind and just go out and things without thinking about the ramifications of your actions. You cross the street without looking. You spend without checking your account balance. You schedule a meeting without looking at your calendar. You drive whatever speed you choose without caring about the speed limit. These are reckless behaviors that could end with some not so good results! Continue reading

Love Me Anyway

April 23, 2018 / Derrick Hurst / 0 Comments

Undeserving. It’s a simple word that pretty much sums up a large portion of my life. There are so many pats of my life that are simply more than I deserve. If I’m being honest what I deserve isn’t really worth talking about but what I have is worth bragging about to everyone. I mean think about life for a minute. How many people have we let down and failed? Yet for some reason they still care about us. Continue reading

What Drives You?

April 11, 2018 / Derrick Hurst / 0 Comments

Imagine you’re at a fork in the road. You can follow the path on the right that seems less traveled. It appears that few have gone down this road. For the most part the path is clearly marked. The path is barely worn but recognizable. The terrain is pretty hilly and has a bunch of rocks. The problem however is the path leads through a wooded area that might not be all that safe. It looks dark. No lights anywhere. The branches are broken in the trees and there appear to be wild animals in the woods. The other path however is smooth and clear. It’s actually paved nicely. The pavement has obviously been traveled a lot. There’s no overgrowth around the edges. It is very clean. And even better the entire path is well lit. Which would you choose? Continue reading

How Do You Say It?

January 5, 2018 / Derrick Hurst / 0 Comments

There are three small words that many of us say and many of us long to hear. These three words are some of the most powerful words in our language that when put together can change someone’s perspective on life. As powerful as these words are, in our lives as married couples, we don’t always hear them when they are said. Do you know how your spouse says these three words? Continue reading

City On Our Knees

September 11, 2017 / Derrick Hurst / 0 Comments

Ever notice that this world is pretty divided? I know that’s not news to anyone. Just turn on the television or your social media feed and you’ll be inundated with all of the _____lives matter campaigns running round. We divide on just about everything! We disagree about matters of gender, church affiliation, sports teams, politics and even how we do what we do. But there’s something far more important than any of these things! Continue reading
