This show has been a major revitalization of my family life and personal life. It gave my family an avenue to speak to me honestly.
We've both been married before and our previous experiences made us fearful of commitment.
When you're a celebrity, people think they know you, but they don't have a clue.
I spent six years in Bible study because I needed to get grounded. People really need to spend time in the Bible getting to know the God they claim to love.
I think people who are artists, actors, singers, great songwriters, they tend to have a hyper state of emotion where they feel things very, very deeply, probably more deeply than the average person walking down the street where it may affect them, but not to the same extent.
I had a lot of growing and a lot of denying of self to do. I am not easily won over, but when I am, I am completely won over.
They did interviews with my wife and daughter-they were genuinely in fear of me having a heart attack, working 20 hours a day, eating fast food.

God continues to work miracles in my life.
God gives me the children's ministry heart and patience. This is what He wants. It's awesome. I don't know where He's gonna take it - but God is building this thing.
Being stubborn can be a good thing. Being stubborn can be a bad thing. It just depends on how you use it.
