 Recently our church (Journey Church in Pineville, LA) launched a new outreach ministry tapping one hundred members to go out into the community and provide one on one help to those in need. To provide resources to aide in this outreach the church launched a new website help4hurts.com. The site provides scriptural insight on these topics:

Here is a message from Pastor James Greer:


In addition Pastor Greer writes:

Practical Application for Everyday Life

We have a saying at Journey Church, "I mess up, you mess up, we ALL mess up!" It's O.K. to not be O.K. but it's not O.K. to stay that way. Our mess ups separate us from God, but thankfully, God sent his one and only son, Jesus, to bridge that gap.

If we accept Jesus as our personal Lord and savior, God will forgive us of all our sins; past, present and future. That doesn't mean that we're not going to mess up, We are going to mess up, but there are things we can get help with and work on so that we can live a better life: a life of peace and joy.

Everyone has a next step to grow closer to God. It may be to stop doing something you know you shouldn't or start doing something you know you should.

Our hope is to help provide resources for those wanting to take their next step. This website is dedicated to providing resources to help people take their next step to grow closer to God. We hope you find this website informative and practical. We hope that you use and share the resources freely. We hope that you grow closer to God.

I would like to add though these resources were initially designed to aide in one on one ministry, I feel that these could be used as a form of personal study and mediation that will help you grow in your walk with Christ.

Think of them as a different and more to the point form of a daily devotion.

Marshall Texas: A Small Town With A Lot Of History And Big Charm

 Photos & Story By Ken Hulsey Last week, as I made my way back from some work in Arkansas , I decided to take a scenic route back to my hotel in Shreveport by traveling through Texas instead of retracing my steps through Arkansas and Louisiana . Along the way, I stumbled upon several charming small towns that I couldn’t help but think would make great weekend getaway destinations. One town that particularly piqued my interest was Marshall. I recalled reading about how Marshall was once the original headquarters of the Texas and Pacific Railway and that there might be a display commemorating the history of this now-defunct railroad. As a railfan, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to explore this piece of history.

Unmasking Heroes: The Untold Stories Behind the Birth of Comic Book Legends

Written By: Terri Pressley  Where does a documentary about superheroes and comics begin? With Superman himself, of course! Superman, created in 1938 by Jerry Siegel and Joel Shuster, both 18 years old, combined parts of Hercules, a scientific Moses, and Jerry Siegel's confidence issues. He always had crushes on girls that didn't seem to know that he was alive, so he created a character that everyone would look up to, one that women would want and men would want to be.

Exploring Shreveport: A Photojournalist's Journey Through History and Abandonment

 Story & Photos By Ken Hulsey I have to admit that Shreveport is probably my favorite city in Louisiana . The city features stunning visual contrasts, and as a photojournalist, walking around provides countless opportunities to capture thought-provoking images. I spent some time in downtown Shreveport this week and took a lot of great pictures. The area is rich with things to see, including many abandoned buildings, which can be found in every city and town in the state, as well as preserved historical landmarks and modern art and architecture.

Just a Thought: Designed by God | Pastor Steve Smothermon

Designed by God Psalm 139 is a profound reminder of God's intimate knowledge and omnipresence in our lives. The psalm opens with a declaration of God's deep knowledge of the individual: "O Lord, you have searched me and known me." This knowledge is not just superficial awareness, but a profound, penetrating understanding of all our ways. The psalmist acknowledges that before a word is on our tongues, God knows it completely. This reveals a God who is not distant or disinterested but is deeply engaged with the intricacies of our lives, understanding our thoughts and actions better than we understand them ourselves.
