When I talk of forgiveness I mean the belief that you can come out the other side ... a better person than the one being consumed by anger and hatred. Remaining in that state locks you in a state of victimhood, making you almost dependent on the perpetrator. If you can find it in yourself to forgive then you are no longer chained to the perpetrator. You can move on.

The way God operates is on the basis of love.

It is by standing up for the rights of girls and women that we truly measure up as men.

I'd rather go to hell than worship a homophobic God.

As a teacher in order not to have to answer too many questions, you stretch your answers.

God hopes that we are going to love God back.

You think sometimes that maybe if the person who hurt you is clobbered you will feel a little better. But it actually doesn't.
