Musician

At first, we were militant about our faith, really in people's faces. We used to say, 'I don't care if they kick us off the stage - I'm gonna tell them about Jesus!' But what good did that do? They never invited us back to the club.

We have people on the road with us - our wives, our families and pastors. We come alongside each other, and we're always in prayer.

I was never growing up saying, 'Dude, I want to sing in a band.'

I'm a daddy first; I'm a husband, and I'm a lover of God and people.

There is... a greater sense of divine purpose when we're playing at all-Christian rock shows. In clubs or bars, we know that the audience primarily came to see a show, so we try not to get preachy and instead let the music do most of the talking.

We're all confused and have problems and struggles.

Some bands sound like one song the whole album through. We've been all over the place because we are punk, hardcore, rock n' roll, metal, reggae - and I think sometimes it might be too much diversity, and kids are lost.

People are buying music from 12-year-olds. No one realizes they didn't create this. They didn't write this. They didn't make this. All they have to do is press play, and you have a band.

I'm the dirtiest of the dirty. I mess up all the time. I suck as a Christian. I can't stand religion. But I love Jesus, and I'm trying.

I'm a born-again Christian - if everybody can agree what that means. I believe in Jesus. I believe that He died for my sins.

To know that so many people have our backs and support us is an awesome thing. You need people saying, 'Hey man, I'm with you all the way.'

Whoever is in charge of the artist will always have the upper hand. They act like it's the artists' world, but it's the other way around, so they're going to do whatever they want to do.

I'm a man of faith.

Payable On Death is actually a banking term, when someone passes on, what someone leaves behind. We related that to Jesus on the cross, and by his death, our sins are paid, the debt is paid. We have salvation if we want it. We got tired of saying Payable On Death, so we went to P.O.D.

Music and video games go hand in hand.

It's religion that killed our King, you know what I'm saying - that religious idea that has distorted the love of God, and now the world doesn't want it. They don't want religion. They want Jesus in their heart. They want Him. They just don't want the religion.

We're going out there whether it's Satan's personal party or not. We're going to sing our hearts out, and we're going to worship God, no matter where we are.
