"There was only one guy in the whole Bible Jesus ever personally promised a place with him in Paradise. Not Peter, not Paul, not any of those guys. He was a convicted thief, being executed. So don't knock the guys on death row. Maybe they know something you don't."

Religion
"Fear is a manipulative emotion that can trick us into living a boring life."
Emotion
"When you build a city near no mountains and no ocean, you get materialism and traditional religion. People have too much time and lack inspiration."

"What if part of God's message to the world was you, the true and real you?"
Calling
"When you stop expecting people to be perfect, you like them for who they are. And when you stop expecting material possessions to complete you, you'd be surprised how much pleasure you get from material possessions. And when you stop expecting God to end all your troubles, you'd be surprised how much you like spending time with God."
Spiritual
"To know there is a better story for your life and to choose something other is like choosing to die."
Purpose
"This message God was communicating to mankind, this Gospel of Jesus, was a message to the heart as much as to the head, that the methodology was as important as the message itself, that the message could not be presented accurately outside of the emotions within which these truths were embedded."
