One thing lots of Christians do have in common is that they can't help coming across as smug. This winds lots of people up, particularly because famous Christians pronounce on the life of the poor from their very lovely affluent homes filled with their very lovely families and attractive pets.

Even though, there are many who describe themselves as Christian, most do not heed to God's word without subjectivity.

When Christians say God has been talking to them about something, it simply means they have a strong inner conviction or feeling that God has made His will known to them.

Christians are as subject to complacency as anybody else, and we can certainly settle into repetition and forget that something radical and extraordinary is being asked of us as well - that we hold to an extraordinary promise about how, from moment to moment, something enters the world and enters us, after which everything is different.

I think some people who say they're not Christians can behave in a more godly fashion than people who call themselves Christians.

I feel like if I live the Christian life, then the people should be able to see it in my everyday actions.

I have a Christian worldview and so it shapes the way that I view issues. I don't apologize for that, and I don't think people of faith ought to shrink away from being in the public arena.

I've never heard God speak out loud to me. That's not an experience I have had.

I don't blame other people for the rap that Christians have. A lot of Christians are just mental. A lot of Christians are more concerned with telling you where you're gonna go when you die than what you can have while you're here.

When I look at the Gospel, I see how it is speaking to me at this time. I see how to be to others and it helps.
