Evangelistic preaching is what Daddy does, I never thought I would.
You have to look at what a person does with his life. Anyone can say that hes a Christian, but you look at how they live.
Each person we meet on a daily basis who does not know Christ is hell-bound. That may make some folks bristle-but it's a fact. When we refuse to warn people that their actions and lifestyles have eternal consequences, we're not doing them any favors. If everybody feels good about his or her sin, why would anyone repent?
We aren't slowing down. In fact, 2006 will be one of our most active years of ministry.
We all face storms in life, whether it is a storm like Katrina, a storm in a marriage, or a storm in our finances.
I saw my father preach in Madison Square Garden, and I was a little embarrassed, I think, the first time I heard him preach. That's my father up there, and I kind of slid down in my chair.
I was 22 years old when I asked Christ to come into my heart. You cannot be born a Christian; you can only be converted. And that is by putting your faith and trust in Christ.

All I know is that I'm a sinner and that God has forgiven me of my sins. Because I put my faith and trust in Jesus Christ.
You have to look at what a person does with his life. Anyone can say that he's a Christian, but you look at how they live.
I've never really been one to try to be politically correct. I just feel truth is truth, and sometimes I probably offend some people.
I think Newt Gingrich is a Christian; at least, he told me he is.
I regret any comments I have ever made which may have cast any doubt on the personal faith of our president, Mr. Obama.
