Art is more engaging than propaganda...

If I get mad it bubbles around in my head and a song comes out...

I have to fit into the body of believers in a kind of an unseen way...

But shouldn't we get past all this pleasant sounding milk of encouragement...

So I wrote the song as a surrealistic kind of drug-level vision...

I must make a note of that. Do not go out with your hands in your pockets...

I don't write gospel music, not by my definition,...

I try not to bleed in public. I try not to sell my blood,...

For music, I would say that Bob Dylan's "Slow Train Coming" is the best Christian album ever recorded...

I think the only thing I ever wrote for Christians was 'Sweet Song Of Salvation', and I wrote that in my sleep...

When I was growing up, I just sang to people at my school. They didn't wanna go to church, so I figured I'd bring the church to them...

Once...there was a tune and everyone knew how it went, but as time went by...

There was a time when I felt quite alone with my music...

Christian morality should be continual, reflecting the eternal concerns of God...

What is ART? God is the Creator of our World, Our Universe. His art is LIFE...
