1."We have a generation on the earth that is just preoccupied. They are trying to pay the bills, they are trying to keep their kids off drugs, they are trying to keep their marriages together, and they are not some big, bad, demonic evil people…Our job is not to criticize or condemn, or point a judgmental finger, but to go and seek and save that which is lost. You and I are God's spiritual GPS system."

̶—Caine in a transcript of speech on LifeChurch.tv. "Stop Acting Like a Christian. Be One. Week One"

2. "Marrying and having babies was supposed to be my highest aspiration in life. I'm basically a Greek Orthodox mother's nightmare: I didn't marry until I was 30, didn't have my first child until I was 35, and I travel the world and teach the Bible."

5. "I think you actually have to build something that is producing fruit whatever gender you are if you want to help others do the same. Your gender should not be what determines whether you speak at a conference, your gifts and fruit should be. I truly believe that if God has called you to do something, then God makes a way for you to do it."
