The Gospel never grows old. It applies to every generation alike. We have to make a choice.

The Bay Area is so beautiful, I hesitate to preach about heaven while I'm here.

If you don't make a decision then time will make it for you and time will always side against you!

You can't control the length of your life. You can control the depth

I don't want to see religious bigotry in any form. It would disturb me if there was a wedding between the religious fundamentalists and the political right. The hard right has no interest in religion except to manipulate it.

My job is simply to proclaim the Gospel, and to let the Spirit of God apply in the individual hearts. When I give the invitation for people to receive Christ it will be so quiet you can hear a pin drop. And you will see people coming forward deliberately, quietly, reverently, thoughtfully, and many of their lives. . . . will have been transformed and changed in that moment.

On our knees we are the most powerful force on earth
