FRANKLIN, Tenn., Aug. 10, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ -- The Pure Passion Award recognizes God's work in a ministry and its leader who exemplifies passionate, risk-taking obedience to the Great Commission, particularly in the area of God's pursuit of sexually bound and broken people.  This year, the award includes a gift to the winning ministry in the amount of $12,000 and a specially framed print entitled, "Love" by Larry Cole (see attached image).  The 2011 "Pure Passion" Award goes to New Creation Ministries and its founder/director Russell Willingham, who for 28 years have been reaching out to sexually broken people of all kinds with the message that Jesus Christ can transform their lives.
