If there's anything in life that we should be passionate about, it's the gospel. And I don't mean passionate only about sharing it with others.

And only the gospel ought to be.
Causes do matter. And the world is changed by people who care deeply about causes - about things that matter. We don't have to be particularly smart or talented.

There's certain things as a songwriter that I don't really care to write about, and there are certain things I won't sing about anymore. There are just so many things that I probably thought was OK for me, or have been in the past, that I would never want my son to think was OK.
I never learned to be a writer. I never took screenwriting courses. I never read anyone's scripts.
