Dawkins considers that all faith is blind faith and that Christian and Muslim children are brought up to believe unquestioningly. Not even the dim-witted clerics who knocked me about at grammar school thought that.

I realized that my truest passion was for helping people change through faith in a higher power. That meant for me belonging to the church. Using my abilities to bring Christian doctrine to a postmodern world.

I'm a Christian. I go to church when I can. I was raised Baptist. I went to a Lutheran school. I'm a nondenominational practicing Christian. I have a lot of faith.

As a Christian there is no other part of the New Right ideology that concerns me more than its self-serving misuse of religious faith.

All of my children are ideologically and politically in sync with me they all have authentic Christian faith. It's something I'm very grateful for.

The best way is to say that as a Christian for me the essence of Christian faith is that you treat others as if you wish to be treated.

Christ does not save us by acting a parable of divine love he acts the parable of divine love by saving us. That is the Christian faith.

'The Purpose-Driven Life' is not just a mega-bestselling work of Christian faith it is the thing that every voter secular or not yearns for.

And Jesus the heart of the Christian faith is the wildest most radical guy you'd ever come across.

Christianity is not about religion. It's about faith about being held about being forgiven. It's about finding joy and finding home.
