It's always better to step down from the pedestal than to be pulled off of it.

When we're in the middle of a difficult time, we have to speak against that lie that says, "God is not here." We have to draw near to God.

When you keep the porch light on for the prodigal child, you do what God does every single moment.

Since our greatest need was forgiveness, God sent us a Savior. He became like us, so we could become like Him.

I do believe that leaders have to be held to a higher standard, especially Christian leaders. I put myself in that camp.

[ Christianity], in and of itself, sets itself apart inherently, and so, for somebody to say, Well it just seems to me like you can pick between all these religions and still have the same thing. Its kind of like somebody saying, You could pick between 80 bananas and one apple and say you have a banana. You cant call that apple a banana.

The peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus . As we do our part rejoice in the Lord, pursue a gentle spirit, pray about everything, and cling to gratitude, God does his part. He bestows upon us the peace of God. Note, this is not a peace from God. Our Father gives us the very peace of God. He downloads the tranquility of the throne room into our world, resulting in an inexplicable calm. We should be worried, but we aren't. We should be upset, but we're comforted.
