Knowledge is like underwear. It is useful to have it, but not necessary to show it off.

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

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.

Your age doesn't define your maturity; your grades don't define your ability; and what people say about you doesn't define who you are.

What unites the church is infinitely more important than what divides us.

Life is a huge privilege and opportunity. God has trusted you with gifts and abilities, which he wants you to use.

I think God is back, I think there is a huge amount of spiritual interest in the country. And I think the bishops are supportive of it because they see people's lives being changed. They see the difference. I see people who've been in prison, whose lives have been messed up, who've been alcoholics, who've been drug addicts, set free and contributing to society.
