Too often we try to use God to change our circumstance, when God is trying to use our circumstance to change us.

Until God opens the next door, praise Him in the hallway.

I think everybody needs healing. My understanding of human beings is that we were created in the image of God but we are all fallen, and Jesus died for us so that we can be redeemed. Every Christian is in a process of healing in some way. God's original creation was good, and in some ways fallen away from that. And in every area of our life we need to be healed and restored and to become more Christ-like.

This may sound pernickety but I wouldn't describe myself as an evangelical. These are labels, which I don't think are helpful. If I was going to use any label it would be Christian, and if you push me any further I'd say I'm an Anglican - that's the family of the Church that I belong to. There's nothing wrong with any of the other labels, but if you have any of them I want them all. If you're going to say, 'I'm Catholic, liberal, evangelical...' let's have them all.

The most precious gift you can give someone is the gift of your time and attention.

Church is not an organization you join; it is a family where you belong, a home where you are loved and a hospital where you find healing.

I think that when people experience something that seems to be supernatural, in some ways it cuts through the secular mindset.
