I believe that we're all created in the image of God and we're all fallen sinners. And I think we can recognize that as we look backward in history.

An 'almost gospel' doesn't raise a corpse.

Conservative evangelicals don't want government support for our faith, because we believe God created all consciences free and a state-coerced act of worship isn't acceptable to God. Moreover, we believe the gospel isn't in need of state endorsement or assistance. Wall Street may need government bailouts but the Damascus Road never does.

I believe that we're all created in the image of God and we're all fallen sinners. And I think we can recognize that as we look backward in history.

Before we're Americans, we're Christians. And so we have to be informed by a certain moral sense, which means that we need to speak up for moral principle and for gospel principle regardless of who that offends.

I think we can remember our past without valorizing parts of our past that we ought to see as wrong.

The church is not built on the rock foundation of geniuses and influencers but of apostles and prophets.
