I encourage people in a lot of my messages that you've got to make the most of every day.
I feel like my message is to let people know that God is a good God, that He's on their side, and no matter what happens, He has a great plan for them.
The main message of it is to not get stagnant and that God wants us to continue to grow and become a better person.
We're going to bring our core message of hope and how God is a good God who's on our side.
I don't want to just preach to the church. I feel like I have a broader message.
Our whole message is it's easy to just keep preaching to the church and people that already come.
My message is that God is a good God.
The Hindus are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet.
I am excited about the opportunity of expanding our outreach with Free Press.
You may make some mistakes-but that doesn't make you a sinner. You've got the very nature of God on the inside of you.
Faith is easy; I think people complicate it.
You have enough people against you... be for yourself.
We need to, you know, restore people. We need to show mercy. I mean, because as much mercy as you show people, that's the mercy you're going to be receiving.
If you want to reap financial blessings, you have to sow financially.
