“Our culture is all about shallow relationships. But that doesn't mean ...” — Francis Chan Quote

Our culture is all about shallow relationships. But that doesn't mean we should stop looking each other in the eye and having deep conversations.

A key to everything is surrender - to really come before the Lord and say, 'I will literally stay here as long as you want me to stay' or 'God, I will really go anywhere on the earth.'

There are just certain times I sense the Lord is wanting me to write, and so I write.

I've never felt a need to really respond to someone else's writing.

Truth is, I think, if God just gave us our daily bread, many of us would be angry. 'That's all you're going to give me? You're just going to give me enough to sustain me for today? What about tomorrow or next year or 10, 20, 30 years from now? I want to know that I'm set up.' And yet Jesus says just pray for your daily provisions.

I don't live with earplugs. I don't like the spotlight - but I like overhearing conversations.

Every marriage takes work. It doesn't dilute our love or make our marriage any weaker, it actually makes it stronger because we're willing to have those conversations.

We have had conversations with Lucasfilm, and we continue to have them. I think it would be wonderful to extend that brand onto our programming.

I would like to encourage hip hop artists to invite those of us who are in the queer spaces in, so we can have those conversations. I love hip hop. If you bring me in the studio, I know how to act. And we can talk about what's not cool because, clearly, there's still homophobia that penetrates in all these areas.
