No judge can stop us from praying for our country and I pray that on May 6, millions of Americans will join me in praying for our President, all of our elected leaders, and even for this unjust judge and all those who rule from the bench - that God would guide them and give them wisdom.
He came to give His life for the sins of mankind, not to take life. Mohammad on the contrary was a warrior and killed many innocent people. True followers of Christ emulate Christ-true followers of Mohammed emulate Mohammed.
After 9/11, there were a lot of things being said about how the God of Islam and the God of the Christian faith were one and the same, but that's simply not true ... The God that I worship does not require me to kill other people. The God that I worship tells me I am to love my enemy, to give him food when he's hungry and water when he's thirsty.
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 think AIDS can be won. I think we can win this fight. It is winnable. But it means behavior change.
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.
