We are like horses that must be broken; basically that one should submit to a pastor even if he is wrong.

God doesn't author hardship but uses it to strengthen us for greater conquests. He never leads us into a storm that He doesn't give us the power to overcome.

Grace gives us the power to live, and mercy keeps us free from guilt, condemnation, and shame.

An offended heart is the breeding ground of deception.

Do not be afraid to allow the Holy Spirit to reveal any unforgiveness or bitterness. The longer you hide it, the stronger it will become and the harder your heart will grow. Stay tenderhearted.

The Spirit of God is jealous over us; He doesn't want superficial fellowship, but genuine intimacy.

True humility is absolute obedience and dependence on God. It puts Him first, others second, and ourselves third in all things.

If we don’t risk being hurt, we cannot give unconditional love. Unconditional love gives others the right to hurt us.

God is seeking those who hear His call to a life of worship. Those who heed are those who will walk in His presence. They will know Him intimately as He will manifest Himself to them.

We all have life-defining moments. They are like open-book tests, but we don't know we have been examined until it is over.

We don't honor just to get a reward; we honor because it is the heart of God, and it is our delight.

Not every thought needs to be voiced

To be or not to be wasn't the question meant

I'll be damned if I am not getting tired of this. It seems to be the profession of a President simply to hear other people talk.

Everywhere in the world there are tensions - economic, political, religious. So we need chocolate.

I come from a place where we're not that shy about our bodies.

Some models who aren't the most beautiful end up becoming the greatest of all time.

I want to keep pushing the limits to see what’s possible. That’s the nice thing about ski racing - no one is stopping you from going faster.

Disappointment is temporary. Only your thought about it is permanent. Change your mind about what has disappointed you and you will change your life

I tend to be what I would call more progressive than conservative, but I think either extreme is excessive.
