My position on the issue of homosexuality is no different from the position of the Anglican Church and all the major denominations around the world. I know that it's different from the secular culture in the western world, but it's no different from the teaching of the church globally. We're Christians basically.
Nicky GumbelThere are many things that were harder to discuss back in the 80's and early 90's than they are now, and this also works the opposite way for other things.
Nicky GumbelA lot of problems in the world would be solved if we talked to each other instead of about each other.
Nicky GumbelI was just praying quietly in tongues and I found that a really helpful way to pray. There are other times when I use the gift when I really feel I don't know what to pray or how to pray. I know what I feel but I just can't quite put it in to words, and I use that, I find it a helpful gift. I don't think you need to speak in tongues, I don't think all Christians do speak in tongues, nobody has to speak in tongues, nobody's forced to, but if somebody wants to I think it's a good gift.
Nicky GumbelDon't let regrets about the past or worries about the future rob you of your enjoyment of the present.
