I've explored the worship side, the pop side, and the film scoring side of me.

Even though we were all celebrities to a certain extent, we all looked at each other as family.

I've explored the worship side, the pop side, and the film scoring side of me.

I sure love Ireland. The first trip I ever made was last year when I did this record in Dublin.

I've been there and done all that, sold millions of records, and that doesn't bring you peace.

I, on the other hand, have a bit of a southern accent.

Some of the most powerful times are when we're quiet.

I think The Big Picture was such a huge shift from my second record.

I believe people are afraid to be still because we're used to being stimulated.

In terms of worship, I think we ought to have the right people leading.

I think there's a passion for God like never before.

I've said to others that there were places I had forgotten about that were just so powerful. I've read the Gospels many times, but it's been a while since I've read through a whole book.

God deserves the best from us.

Transformation in the world happens when people are healed and start investing in other people.

It's really interesting to go back to '93 or '94 and listen to that music, like the I'll Lead You Home record.

I think worship is a lifestyle, first of all.

Healing rain is a real touch from God. It could be physical healing or emotional or whatever.

Not everyone can lead worship.

I sang at the Inaugural prayer service at the National Cathedral.

I think it all comes down to relationships - how I treat my wife, how I treat my kids, how I treat the guys at the grocery store, all aspects of every day, what I'm involved in.

There are a lot of bad worship songs, in my opinion, but there are a lot of good ones, too.

This fall I'm doing something I've never done before. I'm starring in a film, an independent film.

I think if the church did what they were supposed to do we wouldn't have anyone sleeping on the streets.

Love wasn't put in your heart to stay. Love isn't love until you give it away.

We've probably never met, but I wish we had.

We were engaged three-and-a-half weeks after the first date.

Just look at the Old Testament. They didn't go out with the army first. They sent the musicians out.

I think one of my greatest gifts is leading worship.

For some reason, and for a time such as this, God has given me favor with kings and princes.

Doing the instrumental thing, you're really looking for the power of the melody to carry the record.

I'm learning, but I'm getting better at it because I'm learning how to hear God in worship.

Things change when you give your life to serving God, and that can be scary.

But I know God has big stuff planned that ultimately doesn't have anything to do with me.

Really, I could care less if there's a Second Decade record.

I think if the church did what they were supposed to do we wouldnt have anyone sleeping on the streets.

Friends are friends forever. If the Lords the Lord of them a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. Although its hard to let you go in the Fathers hands we know a lifetimes not too long to live as friends.

My best film composing experience was with Elia Kazan.

I was lucky enough to occasionally break out of that racist situation that prevails in the Hollywood film production community. But it was racist then and it will always be that way. It will never be otherwise.

'Batman' took 10 months to film, and by the time I stopped working on it, it took a long time before my English accent came out again. I was actually having to try for it.

Luck is everything... My good luck in life was to be a really frightened person. I'm fortunate to be a coward, to have a low threshold of fear, because a hero couldn't make a good suspense film.

I still feel that a movie has to attempt to say something - even if it fails miserably. But I've sort of given up on believing that I'm going to change the world with every film I choose to act in.

It's the difficulty we had with Mr. Bean, actually, when it went from TV to film. You certainly discover that you need to explain more about a character.

To make a documentary is one thing, to make a feature film is quite another.

I mean when the play was on in New York I was starting to get film offers coming through, and since the film's come out I get offered more than I used to, but it happens incrementally.

I think it would be very boring dramatically to have a film where everybody was a lawyer or doctor and had no faults. To me, the most important thing is to be truthful.

I like doing them and they're ridiculous and the actors can improvise a lot, and they don't have to be really realistic characters that hit a very specific tone as in a feature film. They're really fun, I want to make more of them definitely.

One of the most interesting aspects of the film project was collaborating with so many people - directors, filmmakers, and writers - over a five-year period. I learned that there are two components to this.

The best thing I can think of would be to create a union between something as beautiful and powerful and wonderful as Hollywood films and a criticism of the status quo. That's my dream, to make such a German film.

If he didn't fall in love he would have never come back near the end of the film. Because, what man is going to dishonor himself so that he comes back in front of the man that took a woman away from him... and warns her to save her life?
