I write my music to minister to myself. I have enough sin and enough shortcomings and enough need in my own life that I don't need to write to evangelize to the 'masses.' But if someone else can hear my music and relate to it with the same need that I do, then I give God the glory for that.

— Bob Carlisle (b. 1956), Sänger und Songwriter christlicher Pop- und Countrymusik
