Initially, when I first became a Christian and got into ministry, my thought was that God existed to make my life better and to take me to Heaven. Now I realize that it is not about me at all. It is all about God and that He did this to display His plan to restore the Earth to the Garden of Eden state.

There was a time I wanted to go into politics. And so all of a sudden, here I am, I guess. I'm in the thick of it.

I think that a church should be setting the pace for social justice.

Apple trees bear apples, wheat stalks produce wheat, and forgiven people forgive people.

Be gone, sorrow, sickness, wheelchairs, and cancer! Enough of you, screams of fear and nights of horror! Death, you die! Life, you reign!

If God was willing to wrap himself in rags and drink from a mother's breast, then all questions about his love for us are off the table.

God meets our needs one day at a time.
