The bible says that all people, not just believers, possess part of the image of God that is why murder and abortion are wrong.
Rick Warren
Image
Great leaders genuinely care for and love the people they lead more than they love leading itself.
Rick Warren

Humility is not thinking less of yourself it is thinking of yourself less. Humility is thinking more of others.
Rick Warren
Image
Longing for the ideal while criticizing the real is evidence of immaturity. On the other hand, settling for the real without striving for the ideal is complacency. Maturity is living with the tension.
Rick Warren
Image
There is nothing quite as potent as a focused life, one lived on purpose.
Rick Warren
Image
The fact is, ministry is too unpredictable to be motivated by security. It’s too unprofitable to be motivated by money. It’s too demanding to be motivated by pleasure, and it’s too criticized to be motivated by fame. Our ministry should be motivated by the pleasure of God, and God is pleased when we have a ministry powered by faith.
Rick Warren

Christians can be positive even in a negative situation because we know God has a purpose for allowing that problem.

Rick Warren
Image
The best use of life is love. The best expression of love is time. The best time to love is now.

Rick Warren
Image
There are many different kinds of doubt. When we doubt the future, we call it worry. When doubt other people we call is suspicion. When we doubt ourselves we call it inferiority. When we doubt God we call it unbelief. When we doubt what we hear on television we call it intelligence! When we doubt everything we call it cynicism or skepticism.
Rick Warren
Image
The greatest gift God gave us is also our greatest curse, which is the free will. We are made in God's image, the Bible says, which means we have the ability to love him or not love him, to reject him or not reject him.
Rick Warren
Image
A pretentious, showy life is an empty life a plain and simple life is a full life.
Rick Warren
Image
I believe Jesus Christ came for everybody. I don't think he came for Christians. The Bible says take this good news to the whole world.

Prayer is the greatest use of my words.
