My first church had seven members in it, and I have to remember, the rent was $225 a month and I worked for Union Carbide and took the check I made from work to pay for the rent to keep the church open.

If someone must be hurt, if it ever becomes necessary to bear pains, weather strong winds, or withstand trials or opposition, let it be adults and not children.

I think the first step is to understand that forgiveness does not exonerate the perpetrator. Forgiveness liberates the victim. It's a gift you give yourself.

No matter where you are in life right now, know this: God put you on this earth to fulfill the promise He has predestined for your life.

I think being a good Christian father, your responsibility varies with the age and the stage that your children are at.

Church only benefits you when you participate in the presence of God.

I think that my preaching style and many of my ideas and ideals about faith are based in both Pentecostal and Baptist background.
