He was strong and is strong! But the people refuse to heed the true meaning of strength.

For Jesus, Scripture is powerful, decisive, and authoritative because it is nothing less than the voice of God.

Jesus, music has always been my first love. I use music in my work because it's the fastest way to an emotional place. You hear a song, and that memory comes right back-- you're there... Making music is immediate, and it's all about you. If you're playing guitar, the feeling comes through-- the way you bend the note, the intensity with which you hit the strings. With making films, although it's real emotion, it's false emotion. You're lying.
