Victorious living does not mean freedom from temptation, nor does it mean freedom from mistakes.

Prayer is aligning ourselves with the purposes of God.

God, to redeem us at the deepest portion of our nature - the urge to love and be loved - must reveal His nature in an incredible and impossible way. He must reveal it at a cross.

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.

I was raised in the Baptist church... but I didn't really have a real committed experience with Christ until my father died.

If I can add, say, 10 great new violin concertos to the repertoire before I'm done, that will be truly exciting.
