My experience is that lots of people go to church, sing the songs, tell the story, etc but have profound ambivalence about God.

What's interesting is, if you take the scientists and the theologians, the really good ones, they end up both filled with this wide-eyed sense of wonder and awe about look at this world we live in.

God has spoken, and everything else is commentary.

The thought of the word church and the word marketing in the same sentence makes me sick.

Sociologically, large groups of people don't generally have massive changes in their belief instantaneously.

Before anything else, you have received breath - the gift of life itself. The first word about you is GIFT.

For many, 'desire' is a bad word, something we're supposed to 'give up for God.' That kind of thinking can be really destructive because it teaches people to deny their hearts, their true selves.
