Pure Heart Principals: Living a life with PURPOSE

By: Tessa Sturgill

  WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE IN LIFE?

 My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in LOVE

~Colossians 2:2

 

This topic is something I hope you’ll take the time to really think about because it is so vital to understand in order to live a happy, healthy life. In my almost 30 years of living, one of the things I’ve thought about a lot is my purpose in life. How do we even determine what our purpose is? It’s definitely a learning and growing process and I think we have many purposes at different times of our lives… from being encouraging and loving to others to being the President of the United States. Your purpose is your passion. Your purpose is your heart. Your purpose is your gifts and talents you’ve been given.  Your purpose is your career. Your purpose is your family, your friends, and the strangers you smile at in passing. Your purpose is your life.

How many times have you thought to yourself, “there’s so much to do and so little time!?”  I have at least a billion times! haha But when was the last time you stopped what you are doing and thought… I mean REALLY thought about your purpose for living? I have been reminded a lot lately that our days are numbered. Not a single one of us has a promise of tomorrow. We could die at any given moment. If that was to happen, do you think you have made a positive impact while here on Earth? Do you think you have made the most of each moment and been good to those who are in your life?

We should be living each and every moment of each and every day as if it were our last, but most of us have a hard time doing that. We get into our normal, everyday routine of going to work, taking care of the kids, eating, cleaning, eating some more, watching TV, playing video games, exercising, sleeping then getting up and doing it all over again. I’m  not saying there’s anything wrong with doing these things, HOWEVER… think about if you have really made the most of each moment. Is there someone special in your life that you really care about, but you haven’t told them in a while or EVER? Are you holding yourself back because of past regrets or because you’ve been hurt? How many times do we pass up doors of opportunity out of fear of rejection or failure or just by being complacent or not even realizing the opportunities we are given? I encourage you all to reevaluate your purpose in this moment. Don’t worry so much about yesterday or tomorrow or the next day. Live for today. Yes, it’s good to have a plan and to work toward certain goals… I hope you’ll do that. I know I am, but don’t get too caught up or worried about the ending to your story (whatever it is you are working toward). Enjoy and make the most of the journey that gets you there. You’d be surprised how many people you can impact just with a simple “hello” or “how are you?” or a hug or the big”I love you.”  Don’t go to bed angry. Learn to forgive and be understanding. Learn to LOVE unconditionally!

I have founded Pure Heart Entertainment because I believe this is ONE of my purposes in life. To inspire and encourage LOVE. To give people HOPE in a hurting world. And to build their FAITH in a God that has a purpose for each and every person He has created. YOU HAVE A PURPOSE! YOU HAVE MANY PURPOSES! Despite what anyone has ever told you, despite what you have been through or what you’re going through right now… YOUR LIFE is very important and YOU can do anything you set your mind to. NEVER EVER EVER GIVE UP! No matter how many times you fall down, get right back up and keep moving forward! Now go hug someone and tell them that you love ’em!

Pure Heart Principals: LOVE to LOVE

By: Tessa Sturgill

L O V E  to  L O V E

LOVE. So many of us seek it, live it, and love it! How many of you are hopeless romantics like me? Since I was a little girl, I have been enthralled by the idea of falling in love, having my prince charming come sweep my off my feet on a white horse and live happily ever after. I watched and loved every fairy-tale out there and dreamed of having a fairy-tale of my own one day. Not much has changed in all these years, even after being reminded that life isn’t always made up of fairy-tales. But I’m not one to give up on anything… and especially not LOVE.

Some may think fairy-tales aren’t real…. that love doesn’t work the way we see it in all the Disney movies. That might be partially true, but I on the other hand STILL BELIEVE and I personally think it’s best that we all do. Even the thought of falling in love with the one true love of my life makes me smile. Sparks flying, time standing still, my heart beating fast, no one else in the world exists, his eyes sparkle, and we can’t stop smiling… LOVE is a wonderful gift!

Every couple has a unique love story, no matter how simple or how extravagant, it’s their own fairy-tale.  I see love all around me.  Many of my friends and family getting engaged, married, having babies, and living happily ever after. Yes, there are definitely a fair share of horror stories, failed relationships and marriages, but why not focus on all the happily ever afters?  I am looking forward to sharing some love stories with you all to keep the fairy-tale dream alive. I started Pure Heart Entertainment as a way to tell stories of love and encourage each one of you to keep believing. I hope you’ll support this vision and help me spread LOVE to all those around us, especially those who have been hurt or are hurting.

Pure Heart Principals: Give You Peace

By: Tessa Sturgill

GIVE YOU PEACE

“For such a time as this I have you here
Chosen for the lost to show I’m near
Through your brokenness my glory shines
And through your frailty my strength will rise”
~Echoing Angels~

Have you ever felt like you can never get your head above water? Seems like when it rains it pours right? There has been A LOT going on with me and my family recently and sometimes it just gets overwhelming. Yesterday, on my drive back from Johnson City, TN my heart was a little heavy from all the things going on. I feel like I’m being tested left and right and I honestly sometimes feel like I can’t pass these tests. I have to constantly remind myself that when I am weak, He is strong. And if I fall, I can’t give up. I just have to keep getting back up and try again. Well, as I was driving down the interstate, a beautiful song came on the radio by Echoing Angels. It’s called “Give You Peace.” It spoke straight to my heart and gave me a new perspective, and it actually gave me peace. I found it on YouTube and listened to it at least a billion times. haha! Music is something that God uses pretty often to encourage me and keep me going. The above lyrics really hit home for me and I hope it does for you too.

I am working to start this production company to make movies that encourage people in love, relationships, marriage, and in purity.  But anytime you are doing something for the Lord, you have to expect to be tested. And sometimes these tests will break you. But in our brokenness, God’s glory shines. And in our frailty and weaknesses, Christ’s strength will rise. And no matter what it is you are going through, He will give you PEACE that surpasses all understanding.

My beautiful mom & I at the Red Carpet Premiere of "The Potential Inside"

My mom was in the hospital recently for a blown pupil. One of her eyes was completely dilated and unresponsive to light. The doctors suspected a stroke, aneurism, or blood clot pressing on her optical nerve. She underwent all these tests to find out which one. There were so many people praying for her and praying for a miracle that sure enough, a miracle was what we got! Suddenly her pupil began to shrink and it became responsive to light. All the tests came back normal and there was no scientific explanation for what happened. That’s because God is the Great Physician and He is still a God of miracles.  I say all of this to encourage you and show you that even when all we can see is something bad, even when we are facing death, God is still with us and He is in control. He has us right where He wants us for a reason and we just have to trust Him and have FAITH!

 

Pure Heart Principals: LETTING GO

 

By: Tessa Sturgill

LETTING GO…

“Love may forgive all infirmities and love still in spite of them: but Love cannot cease to will their removal.” C.S. Lewis

I have had my share of suffering and wrong doings, many of us have.  As I think about all the stories of my friends, family, co-workers, and others who have crossed my path, I am reminded of how difficult life can be sometimes.  We all have our own ways of dealing with hurt and past regrets.  Some of us choose to not deal with it, but rather ignore it.  I myself have tried many tactics, some of which I am ashamed to even say.  But the most common one has been to keep myself as busy as possible so that I don’t think about it.  I feel like if I think about it, I will only continue hurting and cry all the time.  That’s one of the tough things about being a woman and I’m sure some men are the same way.  I wear my heart on my sleeve… it is so hard for me to hide my emotions or pretend like I am okay when I’m not.  However, if I don’t allow myself time to think about it then I’ll be fine… that is until all those emotions I’ve been suppressing unleash and I have an emotional break-down! lol  From experience I can honestly say that although it is good to keep busy and moving forward in life, it is so important to actually deal with the issue first.  It may take a lot of time and a lot of prayer, but if we look to God in our suffering, He is faithful to comfort us and carry us through it.

When it comes to LOVE, which is what Pure Heart is all about, I have to admit that C.S. Lewis is right.  We may forgive people we love and we may continue to love them in spite of their mistakes, but how often do we hold onto them?  We just wish somehow that we could just forget, but something in us continues to hold on to the past and we cannot seem to let go.  Just think about the last time you were hurt… maybe you are hurting now.  What does it take to truly let go and why should we want to?  Well, I believe that if we continue to hold on to those painful memories, it hurts us more than anything.  While the person who has hurt you will go on with their life as if it never happened, you continue to suffer the consequences.  Part of us holding on I think is that we want the other person to know how awful what they did was.  I also think that sometimes we hold on because we care so much.  If you are married, then holding on to past mistakes will only make it all that much worse and divorce could very well be in the forseeable future. Not good!

ONE of the toughest things I’ve had to go through has been to lose a man who I thought was my one true love.  All of the plans and dreams flew right out the window in what seemed like an instant.  My whole world came crashing down through unfaithfulness, dishonesty, and a fear of commitment.  And despite the pain of what happened, I wanted to hold on to the dream of what could have been.  You see, for me, I can forgive and forget the mistakes, but I had a hard time letting go of him or should I say, the idea of who I wanted him to be.  I wanted to believe that he would change and that I would still become his wife one day.  At first I was a mess… so hurt and disappointed.  So I tried to push it out of my memory and not think about it.  But EVERYTHING reminded me of that relationship… songs on the radio, certain movies or TV shows, stores we shopped at together, cars we test-drove at some point, so many memories of a love that was lost.  I struggled for a long time… I was up and down emotionally.  Some days I was fine and moving on, then other days I was a wreck.  How could I ever let him go?  How could I ever move on with my life?

The best way to let go is to trust God.  Every day that I focused on the Lord and poured my heart and soul out to Him in prayer, I was renewed.  Every day that I surrounded myself with brothers and sisters in Christ, I was making new memories and encouraged in the process.  Every day you give to Jesus Christ, He will fulfill your every desire.  He can and will fill the void.  He can and will ease the pain.  He can and will direct your path into something even better than you would ever have imagined. But you have to be willing to let go and let God!

Here I am, almost two years later and I can honestly say that I have learned to let go.  It has taken quite a bit of time… a lot of ups and downs… a lot of prayer and support from my family and friends… a lot of sacrifice… and a lot of perseverance through the storm.  The key in any trial is to never give up on what God can do.  Trust that He has a plan so much bigger and greater than your own.  I look back now and I am so grateful for what I have been through.  It has made me the woman I am today and it has allowed me to see the bigger picture of God’s vision for my life.  I am extremely hopeful  for my future and what God has in store.  Letting go has been the hardest, yet the most life-changing experience I’ve ever had.  To have been through the fire and been burned, but to survive and come out refined is priceless.  Would I ever want to go through it again?  Heck no!! haha  But I’m glad that I did and pray that I never forget what I’ve learned through it all:  When you come to the place of knowing that all you have is Jesus, you learn that He is all you need.  There are many other things that God has taught me along the way and I hope to continue sharing those things with you in the future.  Stay tuned!!

Pure Heart Principals: Impacting Hollywood

By: Tessa Sturgill

 

“My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love…” Col. 2:2

Hollywood is a place where dreams come true and where artists  flourish.  It is more than just a location… it is a word that is virtually defined as American cinema itself.  All the major motion pictures that do well in theaters are considered “Hollywood Blockbusters.”  Hollywood is “lights, camera, action!”  Hollywood is where your make-believe can become a reality. It’s filled with excitement, hope, action, romance, and laughter… it is also filled with fame and fortune! Hollywood as American cinema is one of the largest and most influential industries of our time.

 

Our culture is being shaped by what we see in movies, on television, on the Internet, and in media.  People of all ages are intrigued by the art of motion pictures. We are living in a generation filled with digital theaters that have stadium seating, IMAX dome theaters, home theaters, 3D, TiVo, digital satellite networks, video on demand, Netflix, You-Tube, Hulu, iPads, iTunes, smart phones, in-flight entertainment, portable DVD players, car DVD players, and the list goes on!  Technology is growing at a rapid pace and people are using it as a way to socialize, relax, and occupy themselves and their children.

 

Ted Baehr’s MOVIEGUIDE reports that children and teenagers in America spend more than 1,900 hours a year, averaging more than 5 hours a day, watching movies and television. That number goes up to 3,744 hours for teenagers’ use of electronic media, which includes the internet, cell phones, TV, music, and video games. These statistics were from a study about 2-3 years ago so I can only imagine what the most recent numbers are! I can guarantee they have risen.  Hollywood has had a profound influence on our culture. Sadly enough, the majority of the content tends to encourage casual sex, infidelity, violence, pornography, divorce, drugs and alcohol, lying, and foul language. It is important that we create content with encouraging and morally based messages to create a positive impact on our culture.

 We oftentimes mimic what we see. So many of us are visual learners, which is why we have to be careful what we watch or even what we do around others.  

For example, my three year-old niece noticed that I was wearing boots a few weeks ago when it was fairly warm outside. They weren’t winter boots, they were peep-toe boots. The next week my sister was going to take her to the park as it was a hot sunny day out. My niece goes to pick out shoes and grabs her snowboots. My sister told her it was too hot outside to wear her boots and she replies, “but Aunt Tessa wears boots.” lol  This really made me realize how careful I must be around all my nieces and my nephew so they can “see” a good example and follow it (not that wearing boots was a bad thing lol). When we are spending time watching people on TV, in You-Tube videos, or in movies, whether it’s real or fake, it instills the images on our minds and can absolutely influence us.

Pure Heart Entertainment seeks to be that positive influence through its Romantic Comedies and Romance Dramas.  We desire to create entertaining movies that speak to both men and women of all religions, all cultures, and all backgrounds. *LOVE is a universal language.* The values presented in each movie will be subtle in nature, but will still provide a message of faith, hope, and love. Pure Heart strives to become the leader in producing high-quality Hollywood movies in the Romance genre.

 

I am excited to see what the future holds. It is my passion to impact the culture and share the love of Christ through my movies.  My hope is that each person would especially be encouraged in love, relationships, and marriage! It is extremely difficult for many to believe in marriage with the rise in divorce rates across the nation, but Pure Heart believes we can make a difference by inspiring true love in all of us. You can be a part of that process by becoming an active fan today at www.facebook.com/pureheartentertainment.  Love is a precious gift from God. I pray that people learn to love and forgive each other just as Christ loves and forgives each of us.

Pure Heart Principals: Forgiveness and Grace

By: Tessa Sturgill

~~~GRACE~~~‎

“The grace of God
I can see it I can feel it
The grace of God in your eyes in your beauty
I searched and prayed for a sign God could love me
I found you and in you I can see
The grace of God”

Lyrics by: Robert Gilliard and Leah Taylor

Robert and Leah wrote this beautiful love song that speaks volumes about what loving someone is all about. As a single woman and hopeless romantic I dream about finding a man who could say and mean these very words about me and that I could honestly feel the same way about him. To see God’s love and grace through someone else is such a special and beautiful thing. I can only imagine! But do you ever feel undeserving of that love?

My heart has been heavy today with the thoughts of past mistakes and regrets. There are a lot of things I have said or done that I am not proud of. My sinful nature has gotten the best of me on many occasions. And these thoughts have often held me back or made me second guess myself. I don’t know, maybe you can relate. But what I’m learning is that although we struggle with our fleshly desires and make many mistakes in life, it doesn’t mean we are hopeless. A matter of fact, it is through Christ’s love for us that we are forgiven if we just ask. It is through Christ’s love for us that He shows us mercy and grace. Yes, we must try our best to overcome temptation, but when we mess up, we still have hope. God can restore us, He can and will forgive us and give us the strength to move on and work on those struggles that we encounter while we are here on this earth.

Feeling convicted for our mistakes is a good and healthy thing, but do not let your mistakes bring you down or plant seeds of doubt into the vision that God has given you or the plan He has for your life. Learn from your mistakes and look to Christ for healing and comfort. He will never leave us nor forsake us. Isn’t that amazing? Sometimes I feel so unworthy of His love, but then He reminds me that He gives beauty for ashes and He loves me even when I am most unlovable. He will help us overcome any stronghold in our lives if we let him. Have you ever felt like your sins and your past are holding you back? Have you ever given up trying to change because even when you try to do the right thing, somehow you eventually mess up? I’m here to tell you that you must not get discouraged. You must not let those things deter you from your destiny. I know it’s hard, but you have to keep pressing on and never give up on yourself. Trust and lean on Christ for strength to get through the temptations that come your way. If you fall down, get back up again and keep trying.

However, we must keep in mind that just because God forgives us and shows us mercy when we mess up, doesn’t mean we can keep doing it and be okay. There are still consequences for our actions and sin can easily become something that causes our lives to come crashing down in an instant. In “Breaking Free” Beth Moore writes something that I hope will help you in your struggles: “On the days we don’t walk with God, we are easily misled based on human logic. God wants to guide us daily in His own wisdom and knowledge. Remember, He’s the One with the plan.” In other words, if we are walking with God daily, we are more likely to make wise decisions, but on days that we take our eyes off of Him, we are more likely to give into our weaknesses. Don’t ever feel like you can slack off. I have done that many times and that’s when I’ve made my biggest mistakes. We are human and we are weak when we aren’t following Christ. Sometimes we think we know what’s best, but in reality only God does.

Pure Heart Principals: What is love?

By: Tessa Sturgill

 ~~~LOVE~~~

‎”I guess I don’t know what love is
I thought I did for all those years
’cause if I knew what love is
I would have seen it wasn’t here”

Lyrics by Robert Gilliard

These lyrics mean so much to me. I can unfortunately relate to feeling this way. Love is so complicated! Or is it?  The view on love in our society has changed throughout the years. What happened to the way love used to be? What happened to true courtship and a commitment that lasts despite the challenges of life and despite the change in appearance… for better or worse? Why is it that 50% of marriages end in divorce?? I’m sure a lot of our views on love and marriage have changed as technology has changed, but maybe it is time that our generation takes a stand and learns a love like my parents’ love for each other. They will be married for 35 years in July and I cannot tell you how much that blesses me and my whole family. Their love is inspirational, their love is beautiful, and their love is real. Love is so much more than a feeling. It is a commitment of faithfulness, honesty, and selflessness. It is full of nurturing, giving, sacrifice, perseverance, romance, communication, friendship, and a daily effort to build upon the foundation that God’s love provides. If we study the example of love that God gave us… the love that He has for us… we would find out that the greatest love is that we would be willing to lay our lives down for each other. If we could be willing to give up our own selfish desires for someone else… that would be true love. We would also learn that love is patient, kind, it does not envy or boast, it is not prideful, it does not delight in evil, it rejoices with the truth, it always protects, it always hopes, it always perseveres, and it absolutely never fails.

When I read and ponder on all the things that love is and isn’t, I begin to understand that Rob’s lyrics are right. Maybe I never really understood what love was. I thought I did, which is how I ended up with a broken heart, but in reality, if my former relationship was so full of love then things would have been a lot different. I’m not saying that I didn’t love him and that he didn’t love me. I believe we “loved” each other. But I don’t believe our love was pure. It was flawed by pride, selfishness, dishonesty, sin, and ultimately it failed us. Could it have worked? Possibly. There were a lot of great things about that relationship. But I cannot dwell on what could have been if only things were different. They weren’t different and we should make our decisions off of how things are in the present, not on how it was or how it could be if only he or she could be the person “I” know he/she could be. We need to recognize that this person may not ever change and marriage definitely cannot fix the problem. If you are already in a marriage and having some major problems, I wouldn’t give up at the drop of a dime. You have made a commitment to each other before God and I believe that commitment should be honored. There are exceptions to the rule, but if there’s any hope whatsoever, fight for your marriage. Seek counseling, go on a 2nd honeymoon or do whatever it takes! It is worth it!

None of us are perfect so obviously every relationship will have its imperfections too, but the key to loving someone is to honestly and willingly give up your life for them without feeling any type of resentment. The greatest commandment is to love… even those who have hurt us in the past. My motto is to “love like God loves and forgive like God forgives.” Can you imagine how much better life would be? How much happiness we could experience? Love is not just about the things you do for someone else. It is also the things you don’t do. And if you have found someone who truly loves you… do not take him or her for granted. Cherish each moment you have with that person and return that love every single day. You never know when it will be your last.

But when it comes down to falling “in love” with someone and being in a committed relationship, I think it is extremely important for us to choose wisely. I do believe love is partly a choice. Of course there are elements that we cannot force to happen like natural chemistry, similar passions, physical attraction, or compatibility, but who we allow into our lives on such a deep level is a choice. I have made some bad choices in my life, which were ultimately made out of my emotions and my naive ability to see the best in people. However, the important thing is that we learn from those mistakes. After all that I have been through, I know now what I am looking for in a husband. I will no longer ignore the “red flags.” Be careful who you give your heart to. It will change your life forever. But once you do find true love, embrace it, nurture it, and never let it go.

Pure Heart Principals: Broken Hearts

By: Tessa E. Sturgill

The pain of a broken heart can be absolutely unbearable! Trust me… I would know.  It is truly hard to understand why things happen the way they do. Why do we fall in love with someone that breaks our heart in the end? Why is it that we can love someone with our whole heart and not receive the same kind of love back in return? How are people capable of hurting someone they love? All of these questions are valid… questions I have asked myself over and over again. Is there a simple answer? Not really. However, it is through heartbreak that I have learned the greatest lessons in life and love. It is the “unbearable” pain that has made me the strong and determined person that I am today. There is always something to learn when we are in the midst of a storm.

Of course, this pain can also be caused by circumstances outside of relationships. If you or someone you love has ever been through or experienced a battle with cancer, other life-threatening illnesses, abuse, death of a loved one, financial burdens, or even a career failure, you know the pain I’m speaking of.  Most of us have experienced at least one or more of these and many other hardships in life.

There was a time when I didn’t handle life’s “unfair treatment” very well. It is a common trend to try and fill the void with destructive behavior like alcohol or drug abuse, sexual promiscuity, or just outright hate toward the world. Not that I turned to ALL of those things, but I can promise you that they will never actually fill the void or bring you true happiness in life.  God’s LOVE for us can fill the void if you let it. It is one thing to cry out to God when we are hurting, and it is another thing to truly seek Him and trust Him through the pain. We may never understand why bad things happen to us, but I know that God wants to take the bad and turn it into something good. He wants to turn our “disasters” into something “beautiful.”

If you are hurting today, you are not alone. Please feel free to email me at Tessa@PureHeartEntertainment.com.

My first blog! Yayyy!! I am so excited to start Pure Heart Entertainment. This has been a vision of mine for a long time and I am finally in a place where I am ready to get the show on the road and start developing a fan base of support from the ground up.  I would love for this blog to become a channel of communication for each of you to be involved in Pure Heart’s productions. How would you like that? Would you like to see a certain Actor or Actress starring in one of our productions? What location ideas do you have for some of the scenes? Have an opinion on love and relationships? There’s so much involved in making a movie and I think it would be brilliant if the fans could take part in letting us know what you want!  This leads me to tell you more about Pure Heart’s first movie, BEAUTIFUL DISASTER.

BEAUTIFUL DISASTER is a Romantic Comedy that I wrote last year soon after I experienced a world shattering blow to my heart.  Many of the scenarios in this film are based on my own personal experiences; however, it is not based on a true story.  I am currently in the beginning stages of pre-production, which includes putting together a business plan and production schedule, finding investors, building a network, and editing my script. A rough draft of my script was actually named a SEMI-FINALIST for The Kairos Prize supported by the John Templeton Foundation and established by MovieGuide.  Thankfully, I also have a great start on networking as one of the Producers for the award winning feature film, THE POTENTIAL INSIDE, which was released internationally on DVD April 19, 2011.

If you know me, you know that I am a HUGE romantic and I still believe in fairy tales and the “happily ever after.”  Despite our society’s lack of respect for marriage and commitment, I believe our generation still has the ability to exhibit love like it used to be… that real, old-fashioned kind of love that has the strength to endure anything. A love that is truly willing “to have and to hold, for better or worse, for rich or poor, in sickness and in health, to LOVE and to CHERISH, until DEATH do us part.” These vows are not even taken seriously half the time these days. I think part of that is because of the way media portrays love and relationships.  Promiscuity is the norm on TV, in movies, and even in music.  We see and hear it everywhere we go.  Teenage pregnancies, unwed mothers, abortions, and STD’s are on the rise and it’s time we do something about it.  Pure Heart seeks to produce movies that encourage traditional values that our society so desperately needs. Please help me by getting connected through facebook and twitter and be sure to tell your friends and family. This is starting out small, but I am dreaming big!!! Lord willing, BEAUTIFUL DISASTER will be the HOLLYWOOD BLOCKBUSTER of 2013!
