Bill Purvis had to be left for dead before he discovered that
everything he was searching for could be found in Jesus Christ. As
a teen, Purvis nearly died when stabbed three times by a pimp
during an encounter with a prostitute. With his pericardium sac
pierced, liver punctured and his jugular vein completely severed,
he cried out to Jesus, who miraculously saved his life. In the more
than thirty years since that day, he's built a large church and
become a leader and mentor to many. Make a Break for It is a

Every person is driven by something. What drives your life? Is it
money? Power? Popularity? Ambition? Validation? Acceptance? Pastor
Rick Warren's bestseller, The Purpose Driven Life, encouraged
millions of readers to live their lives with God's purpose in mind.
It is a book that focused on how our Creator designed us to live
our lives. However, as a pastor for over thirty years I've
discovered that most people miss the point. I believe that most
people are letting the "Emotion Driven Life" guide them. I've
discovered that emotions like lust, bitterness, anger, guilt, and
fear direct a lot of our choices. This is not God's will for us.
God didn't create you to be imprisoned by your emotions. In this
book, we are going to explore emotions that can rob you of your
potential and help you get control of them, so that you can reach
your destiny.
Bill Purvis is living proof that God answers prayer Having been
stabbed 3 times with a butcher knife and left for dead at the age
of 18, God answered his prayer for salvation and spared his life
from imminent death. From that day he's been passionate for God and
devoted to the practice of prayer. So many times we imagine that
our pastors lead picture-perfect lives that things always go their
way, nothing bad ever happens, and most importantly, that there is
nothing they could ever need from us. That couldn t be further from
the truth Hear first-hand the truth behind the stained-glass and
come to a greater understanding of why your pastor needs your
prayersDiscover the blessings that come from God when you pray for
your own pastor It 's a tool for unity and the spiritual
advancement of any church.Bill Purvis is the Senior Pastor of the
8,000-member Cascade Hills Church in Columbus, Georgia. No one who
knew Bill as a teenager would have imagined him becoming a
Christian, and especially not a Pastor. Yet God answered his prayer
of, Lord use me and his life and ministry have been a miracle
guided by God 's hand and prayer. Married for twenty-eight years
and the father of three married sons, he 's devoted to Christ and
his family. His formal education includes Opelika State College
(now Southern Union), and Luther Rice Seminary where he earned the
Master of Arts, Master of Divinity, and Doctor of Ministry degrees.
He is the voice of RealTime with Bill Purvis television ministry
and Bill Purvis Leadership, a monthly leadership development
ministry for personal growth.
