I think my biggest problem was, as a celebrity on a TV show, you get an inflated ego and you think you're the center of the universe.

I can assuredly say that it's my life's mission to love all people.

I'm a man of convictions. If you press me about how I feel about an issue, you're going to see my convictions.

I could have anything I wanted and if I didn't have it, it was because I didn't want it.

Do I support the idea of gay marriage? No, I don't.

We know that God disciplines His children, and that testing, suffering, and persecution come to us from Heaven to stretch, grow, and mature us into the men and women God intends to make us... If we keep this in mind when hard times fall, it can be a real source of joy in the fire.

I believe the Scriptures teach that there's a literal heaven and a literal hell, just like Jesus said. And without forgiveness of sins that, yeah, the place of punishment is called hell.
