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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

The phrase 'sodomized by a bratwurst poltergeist' suddenly flew through my mind.

Look where we stand in the world on education. We're at the bottom of the list. So it's obviously not working.

...pay attention to what users do, not what they say.

If you need to raise funds from donors, you need to study them, respect them, and build everything you do around them.

It's one thing when you are photographing others, but when you are exposing yourself and your insecurities, that's the biggest risk. That's always scary.

Advent increases our hope, a hope which does not disappoint. The Lord never lets us down.

University is a wonderful opportunity to find out not just much more about the world, but much more about yourself, too.

I can't remember a single year of my life when I haven't made a piece of theatre.

That's why my attitude, even on my larger-scale movies, is to make them cheap. The less these things cost, the better for everybody.

The particular qualities and intentions of photographs tend to be swallowed up in the generalized pathos of time past.
