Derek Murray's Story

As a career Army Chaplain, I was ordained in 2002 to the Gospel Ministry.   Before retiring from the U.S. Army, I had the distinct privelege of serving our Soldiers in combat and on the homefront, to include Army infantry and Special Forces.

Prior to my military service, I pastored in Illinois at Evanston Bible Fellowship.  After achieving a Doctorate of Ministry in Theology and Apologetics from Liberty University, I decided to continue my personal and professional development by working toward a PhD in Bible Exposition. 

I have been been married to my college sweetheart, Sarah, for 28 years.  We have 4 children and 2 grandchildren, and we currently reside in northern Virginia, where we serve as missionaries to the military through Cross the Divide.

This year, please join us in launching new Cross The Divide programs and events on the east coast.  With your partnership, we're hoping to have men's retreats and backpacking, a marriage retreat for Navy SEAL Foundation, duck hunting event, and personally provided pastoral counseling for our veterans.

Thanks for joining this new effort with me as we continue to serve our nation's veterans that have given so much themselves already.
