God gave you your own race to run, stop comparing yourself to other people. They have their race and you have yours. Run hard and don't quit.

We all need grace in the face of each other.

We fear circumstances so much because we fear God so little.

For me, Christianity is not a genre. It's faith. The Gospel is not a genre either. It's faith. I definitely understand the semantics of naming things to give them some kind of distinction but I think my faith is pretty distinct. If you want to call it hip hop, essentially it is. That's the art form.

I think we should appreciate ethnicity and diversity, and appreciate the uniqueness of all people, but I don't think we should be ethnocentric. These things are not ultimate.

Better to have a small role in God's story than to cast yourself as the lead in your own fiction.

A lot of my wounds have healed. They have left scars, and I can either hide my scars, put a long sleeve shirt on, and cover them up. Or, I can show them off and say, "Yeah, it happened."
