God hasn't given up on you. He can still do great things for you, in you, and through you. God is ready and waiting and able.

Once I started working as a professional actor, it was like, 'Bye-bye waiting tables, bye-bye bartending, bye-bye all the cliched jobs actors do.' But after a year of not getting work, there's this really difficult conflict, like, 'Do I have to go back to being a waiter when people recognize me from a show?'

Maybe, if you put your disbelief aside, roll up your sleeves, take some risks, and totally go for it, you'll wake up one day and realise you're living the kind of life you used to be jealous of.

Songwriting is hard - it's so easy to fall into the same traps. It's not like I wake up and songs flow out of me.

Some leaders are not intimidated by opposition; they actually thrive on it. It wakes them up. It energizes them. It calls them to battle. It causes them to mobilize their thoughts and energy.

This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do.

I had a big brother so I always wanted him to hang out with me, but he wouldn't. So I always did sports and I always really liked it, but I just was never good at it.

I'm not a big guy for research. You've got to take a risk.

I did a play in Bolton - 'Billy Liar.' I turned it down at first but then thought, 'What the hell else can I do? I'm no good at anything else.'

I'm blessed to have a little bit of success in football.
