Any of us can be happy and have a good attitude when everything is going our way. But I believe it's the real test of your character and of your faith to say, 'Things are not going our way, but I'm still being good to people; I'm still attending church; I still have a good attitude.'

It’s vital that you accept yourself and learn to be happy with who God made you to be. If you want to truly enjoy your life, you must be at peace with yourself.

When you face difficult times, know that challenges are not sent to destroy you. They're sent to promote, increase and strengthen you.

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

I believe the scripture says that being gay is a sin.

I've always been - you know, my personality is motivating and encouraging. And so I'm just being who God made me to be.

There's plenty about God that I don't understand and can't explain. But I come back to my core belief that God is good, that He's for us.
