I worshipped money so much that it ruined my life. Money is not my god. I just want to manage His money for Him, for the poor people, the lost kids. I just love everybody. Brian Welch

When I was in the rock band, I got to do whatever I wanted. I had people paying my bills, and I didn’t have time to grow up. When I got sober and left Korn, it was like, ‘OK, now I can mature.’ Brian Welch
Sometimes it looks like God’s abandoned you, but not for any reason. To make your faith grow and to see that, no matter what happens, you come out OK… It’s all for your good. It’s all for love, and it’s all for making you a strong person. Brian Welch

I had to put my kid before my career and all the money I was making. I decided to do the right thing. I was dying inside. If I didn’t have my daughter, I would be dead right now, for sure. Brian Welch

I like to read a lot, man. I read a lot and meditate and just go to that place. I’m not really an outdoorsman. I don’t watch TV. Brian Welch
