I'm really passionate about God and religion, and I thought maybe I'm supposed to be a pastor.

The most important thing a pastor does is stand in a pulpit every Sunday and say, 'Let us worship God.' If that ceases to be the primary thing I do in terms of my energy, my imagination, and the way I structure my life, then I no longer function as a pastor.

I'm a reverend and a pastor. A pastor of the church. I go by usually pastor.

I take my responsibilities very seriously.

As a pastor, I have a deep desire to lead people to God and encourage people to pray, read the Bible, and carry their faith into every part of their lives.

The role of the pastor is to embody the gospel. And of course to get it embodied, which you can only do with individuals, not in the abstract.

I take being a role model very seriously.

Had I been more religious in my youth, I might have become a pastor, for it was the pastoral role I'd sought.

I'm not only a Christian, but I'm a pastor of a church.
