If you let a child know that you think he is lazy, sloppy, untruthful, unpleasant, and thoughtless, he'll probably prove you are right. Obviously, it is much better to make him stretch to reach a positive image than stoop to match one at ground level.

I'm still heard on 1,500 radio stations across North America every day, about 220 million people a day in 150 countries.

The universe and everything in it will someday pass away and be made new by the Creator. Therefore, the events of today that seem so important are not really very significant, except for those matters that will survive the end of the universe.

One of the most important responsibilities in the Christian life is to care about others, smile at them, and be a friend to the friendless.

It is my view that our society can be no more stable than the foundation of individual family units upon which it rests. Our government, our institutions, our schools...indeed, our way of life are dependent on healthy marriages and loyalty to the vulnerable little children around our feet.

Marriage succeeds only as lifetime commitment with no escape clauses.

We human beings can survive the most difficult of circumstances if we are not forced to stand alone.
