I serve a higher power, Jesus Christ. I make no apologies in saying that.

To make the best use of your life, you must never forget two truths: First, compared with eternity, life is extremely brief. Second, earth is only a temporary residence. You won't be here long, so don't get too attached.

War is and always has been a brutal exercise that destroys lives, families and communities. It is never something for which we hope.

The more you care about the powerless, the more power you have. The more you serve those with no influence, the more influence God gives you. The more you humble yourself, the more you're honored by others.

God teaches us to love by putting some unlovely people around us.

Without God, life has no purpose, and without purpose, life has no meaning. Without meaning, life has no significance or hope.

We are not saved by good works; we are saved for good works. The Christian lifestyle is to be a lifestyle of goodness.
