Russ Taff Quotes

Dad was truly a pastor — caring, loving and helping people. Being a good pastor is one of the hardest jobs on the planet. Mom was a singer. She never won a Grammy. She never sang outside of her little town. She never sang in front of thousands of people. But she spent her life on her knees in prayer. These are my roots.

I was 22 and was pulled out of a little bitty town in Arkansas and thrust into an international ministry. I didn't have that understanding. Things started getting bigger every year and I started spending, spending and spending. After a while, you can become a slave to your bills. A friend of mine, who is part of a huge ministry, said, "When you build a religious monster, it eats money. And when it runs out of money, it will eat you."
