All of my books began as sermons, so really the heart of the message is still the same.

The Christmas message itself is that God chooses common people to do the most uncommon things. No matter how common you are, and no matter how simple you are, God has a plan and ability to come into our world and do something unusual.

There is no religion like Christianity, it is not one religion among others, it is completely different, its mixing apples and oranges.

God knows what it's like to be a human. When I talk to him about deadlines or long lines or tough times, he understands. He's been there. He's been here.

You may go days without thinking of God, but there's never a moment when He's not thinking of you.

I try to be honest; I really do try not to exaggerate the story. I try to be accurate.

I'm first a pastor and then a writer.
