I study the Bible all week, pray to the Lord, and then I speak from my heart. It's all about brutal honesty.
If my words don't flow out of a heart that rests in God's control, sovereignty, then they come out of the heart that seeks control so I can get what I want.
Sometimes prayer moves the hand of God, and sometimes prayer changes the heart of the person who is praying.
We're not to follow our hearts, we're to guard our hearts.
Every great cause was initiated by someone whose heart was broken.
Just because people are young doesn't mean they haven't been through hard times.
Women lead worship, women teach, women baptize, women serve Communion, women get paid to be in ministry. We have hundreds of women from SPU who are leaders in our church.
It's a very exciting day with the changes that have taken place at the stadium. We want our fans to show their support for our program by wearing green. We want the entire stadium in green.
To play the game in the state's best venue is exciting. Last time we were here, we packed it out, despite the lightning (which caused a 28-minute delay).
We want our fans to show their support for our program by wearing green. We want the entire stadium in green.
The whole idea is to keep the game alive. There was give and take on both sides.
Ken truly has all the qualities of a great Aggie and a great Ram. Ken was an extremely active student during his time at CSU. Whether it was his highly successful sports career, various extracurricular activities, leadership in student government or his involvement in Silver Spruce, Ken took full advantage of his time here.
Our fans really stepped up for us; I thought they were great. I think we had about 3,500 fans there, and those who couldn't come still bought tickets and sent in money to help us. I feel really good about the whole experience.
Jesus, could you please rapture the charismaniac lady who brings her tambourine to church?
