There may be times when you just have to love people from a distance.

I mean we all need a second chance sometimes.

I'm not a big believer in trying to jam stuff down somebody's throat: 'You're going to do it my way.' I'd rather show by example and live my life and have people say, 'You know what, I want to live like Joel has. He's got peace and joy, and he seems content.'

To reach up for the new, you must let go of the old. What lies behind you is not nearly as important as what lies in front of you.

We are set in our ways, bound by our perspectives and stuck in our thinking.

I'm trying to throw a big broad net to try to get people interested in God and believe that He's for them and has a purpose.

My dad had a church of 90 people when I was born. It was just, over the years it continued to grow.
