"Turn to your neighbor, give him a high five and tell him to hang on,"
the Rev. Brian Hurst told his congregation at Destiny Worship Center on
a recent Sunday.
Hands black and white slapped each other as the minister preached in a fast-clipped cadence uncommon in New England congregations.
"Tell him to hold on, help is on the way," Hurst continued. "That hope is Jesus. He can do for you what nobody else can do. He's supernatural."You can call Ghostbusters if you want, but I will call on Jesus."
Laughter, applause and a spattering of amens briefly interrupted Hurst's sermon.
"People today put more trust in their horoscope than they put in God," he said. "Ask yourself if there is a day in your life too hard for God to handle. "He will replenish, revive, restore and protect you. Turn to your neighbor and say, 'Whatever you're going through, God can handle today.'"
