I am a Christian, not because someone explained the nuts and bolts of Christianity, but because there were people willing to be nuts and bolts.

Never forget what Jesus did for you. Never take lightly what it cost Him. And never assume that if it cost Him His very life, that it won't also cost you yours.

We never understand what we're praying, and God, in His mercy, does not answer our prayers according to our understanding, but according to His wisdom.

Save me from trendy religion that makes cheap clichés out of timeless truths.

When you stop being so afraid of failing you become much more free to succeed

We were given the Scriptures to humble us into realizing that God is right, and the rest of us are just guessing.

It always cracks me up when people try to impress God, because people don't have to impress God. He's already knocked out by you.

Love is found in the things we've given up, more than in the things that we have kept.

Christianity is about learning to love like Jesus loved and Jesus loved the poor and Jesus loved the broken.

After you're dead [...] it's not gonna matter if you have a few scars. It will matter if you didn't live.

My salvation has very little to do with anything that I have done... Jesus will go to any lengths to draw us to himself.

Today we're younger than we're ever gonna be

There is no reward beyond the moment. Each moment contains life's reward.

Flame is the lamp

For if good were not praised more than ill, None would chuse goodness of his own free will.

Any kind of consciousness that is not related to the production or consumption of material goods is stigmatized in our society today.

Beer makes people deaf.

I played for Almendares in Cuba. Guess who was trying out for the team? Castro. Fidel Castro, as a pitcher. He could throw pretty hard, but he was wild. He didn't have any control.

Time spent in the cultivation of the fields passes very pleasantly.

I write for myself; I release the albums to connect with everyone else.

In China, we don't consider someone truly beautiful until we have known them for a long time, and we know what's underneath the skin.
