If you don't have the gift of a loving supportive family, be that gift for someone else. It doesn't have to be a relative, just someone you know who is alone or hurting over the holiday.

I always want to listen to people and receive good criticism, but I just don't have to answer to them; I have to answer to God.

If we don't forgive ourselves for mistakes we've made-and everybody's made their choices, some worse than others-we'll never experience the good life God has in store.

I want get across to not just the church world. I want to get outside those walls to everyday people.

Every setback means you're one step closer to seeing the dream come to pass.

Truth is, no two people are completely compatible. We have to learn to become one. That means we may have to make sacrifices; we may have to overlook some things. We must be willing to compromise for the good of the relationship.

My core message is that God has got a good plan for your lives, and we must trust Him, and let go of the past. That's my main message.
