When you're tempted to be upset, ask yourself 'Is this worth giving up my joy?'

No matter how long it's been, no matter how impossible it looks, if you'll stay in faith, your time is coming.

I always try to put a seed of hope into people's hearts. I'm not there to teach them doctrine necessarily, but to let them know that God is a good God, and has a plan for their lives. Hopefully, that will restore their faith, or draw them into faith.

In my early teens, I knew I wanted to do television production. I loved cameras, editing and producing, anything that had to do with television production. My friend had a production studio across town, and we'd go over there at night and shoot and edit. I produced my father's televised service for 17 years.

Fear and faith have something in common. They both ask us to believe in something we cannot see.

I'm a reverend and a pastor. A pastor of the church. I go by usually pastor.

The facts may tell you one thing. But, God is not limited by the facts. Choose faith in spite of the facts.
