It's just after I walked away from my addictions and the things that I struggled with, that's when I chose Jesus Christ and now he helps me and guides me through the rest of my life.

A lot of times people that aren't Christian, or that might not fully believe... they know there's a higher power but they don't fully believe, they'll say: "Well, if there's a God, how come children be mutilated?" But you've got to remember that the promises are when we leave this Earth and we go to Heaven. That's what I believe.

There is nothing anyone could ever say to convince me that one person cannot change a nation. One person can do unbelievable things. All it takes is that one person who's willing to risk everything to make it happen.

I do a lot of drug and alcohol speaking with people to stop addictions. I'm not a Bible-thumper. I don't preach like that. I tell people that has addictions: "If you want your addiction cured, it begins right here. It begins right here." Jesus Christ is not a genie in a bottle. You got me? Jesus Christ can help you get through anything but even with addiction, he's not going to say 'hocus pocus, your addiction's gone'! You have to say: "I'm done!" It all begins right here in your mind.

Educate yourself on what's going on around the world where children are dying. Educate yourself on what's going on in Africa.

All my life, from birth, it's been a fight. And it always seemed to be another man's war. I always seemed to be fighting for someone else. But it always came back to me. The Word says we're born into sin, and sin always comes back to war.

As much wrong as I did in life and as many people as I hurt, I can say that God never stopped talking to me. I just stopped listening.
