Happiness is always a choice. You can't wait for circumstances to get better. You have to create your own good fortune. So look for ways to be happy every day.

God didn't create any of us to be average. He didn't make us to barely get by. We were created to excel.

When you center life around yourself, not only do you miss out on God's best, but you rob other people of the joy and blessings that God wants to give them through you.

You may think there is a lot wrong with you, but there is also a lot right with you.

Part of my message is that God never said that we weren't going to have difficulties, but you know what, He said to stay full of joy and I'm going to help you overcome. So I think that is what resonates with people and helps draw so many people. Because it is not a message that you are barely going to make it, you're a victim. We are not victims, we are victors.

I want the services to look and sound like the Grammys. It's not showy, but we represent God, and it should be first class.

Jesus was saying that you can't have a larger life with restricted attitudes.
