"Everyone is trying to find peace and happiness, and many times in the wrong place. There's a man in the Bible who was the richest man. The sexiest man. And the most powerful man in his generation...

But you can't come to God with your mind alone." –Chicago Tribune, 2001

"Jesus taught there are two roads to life. Many of you are in the ruts of life and you just keep on going and you don't change. But there's a highway that God has built for us.

Only those prepared to die are really prepared to live." –PR Newswire, 1997
