My interest is in what's true, where is the life, where is the heart and what inspires.

I am for marriage. I am for fidelity. I am for love, whether it's a man and woman, a woman and a woman, a man and a man. I think the ship has sailed and I think the church needs -- I think this is the world we are living in and we need to affirm people wherever they are.

The lesson that has been hardest for me to learn: there is nothing to prove.

What we believe about heaven and hell is incredibly important because it exposes what we believe about who God is and what God is like.

If there's any place where you would express your deepest doubts, it would be church.

Your life is a gift and how you respond to it - what you do with it matters. That's where I start.

When we deny the spiritual dimension to our existence, we end up living like animals. And when we deny the physical, sexual dimension to our existence, we end up living like angels. And both ways are destructive, because God made us human.
