The Kevin Derryberry Band on the Rick and Bubba Show
Since the early days of Kevin’s rock band era, Kevin, Rick and Greg Burgess have been friends. Kevin made frequent visits to Jacksonville Al to perform in the eighties and on one such visit met Rick and Greg. Rick worked at the campus radio station at Jacksonville State and would invite Kevin and his band to come and be on his show. Afterwards they would all head out to the venue and Kevin’s band would play while Rick and Greg would raid the refreshments in the dressing room. Neither Kevin or the Burgesses were living a life that honored God at the time but little did they know God had a plan. Years later Kevin received a call from Rick and the friendship was reunited. Kevin would drive to Gadsden to be a part of Rick’s newest adventure, The Rick and Bubba show. There, Kevin met Bill Bubba Bussey and Calvin Speedy Wilburn. All crammed in a small room with Kevin’s keyboard in his lap, they would cut up and sing and Kevin would talk about Jesus. Over the years Rick and Bubba have become a household name and the friendship between Kevin and the show has grown into a relationship centered around making Jesus Christ known. All of these guys and their families have been radically transformed by the power of Jesus Christ. It hasn’t always been an easy journey. God has allowed tragedy to be a part of the story line for the show. However tragedy turns to triumph as the story of Bronner Burgess is used by God to lead thousands to Christ and countless to find peace through very difficult circumstances. Kevin Derryberry Ministries is honored to be a part of what God is doing through the Rick and Bubba Show. Rick and Bubba and gang appear at Kevin’s annual Golf Classic every year and Kevin appears often on the Rick and Bubba show. Iron sharpens iron with these guys. All lifting each other up in prayer and holding each other accountable to continue the work that Christ has began in them. It’s a race to the finish, to share the gospel of Jesus Christ bringing hope to listeners and concert goers. Kevin loves how Rick always encourages him to FINISH STRONG.
Proverbs 27:17 As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.
Kevin will always have a place in history with the Rick and Bubba by adding to the rick and bubba dictionary:
Pulling a Derryberry
–
Bringing something to the table that is not yet available.
