I have always believed. I grew up, you know, my parents were a good Christian people. They showed us love in the home.

If Jesus were here today, he wouldn't be riding around on a donkey. He'd be taking a plane, he'd be using the media.

I encourage people in a lot of my messages that you've got to make the most of every day.

Quit worrying about what other people think and just be who God made you to be. If you will run your race, God will take care of your critics.

It is a hard thing to let go of mistakes we've made and sins. God wants us to do that because He knows the guilt and the condemnation will keep us from becoming who He has created us to be. Salvation and Christ's love is a gift. You don't earn it. You've got to receive that gift. I think one of the most important things is starting off the day forgiving others and forgiving yourself. You learn from your mistakes, but I don't think you have to drag them back into today.

The greater the giving, the greater the living.

The bigger your obstacle, the bigger your future. Don't get discouraged, keep moving forward.
