Prayer is the greatest use of my words.
Rick Warren
Image
When God wants to make a mushroom, he does it overnight, but when He wants to make a giant oak, He takes a hundred years. Great souls are grown through struggles and storms and seasons of suffering. Be patient with the process.
Rick Warren
Image
When you have a major loss in your life, the first thing you need to do is tell God exactly how you feel.
Rick Warren

We are all called to fulfill God's five purposes for our lives: to worship, to fellowship, to grow like Christ, to serve, and to be on mission with God in the world.
Rick Warren
Image
There is no growth without change, no change without fear or loss and no loss without pain.
Rick Warren
Image
If someone broke your heart it doesn't mean you should build a wall around it and quit loving. Redirect your love.
Rick Warren
Image
Everytime you forgive you disappoint the devil.
Rick Warren
Image
God's ultimate goal for your life on earth is not comfort, but character development. He wants you to grow up spiritually and become like Christ.
Rick Warren
Image
I'm naturally inclined to have sex with every beautiful woman I see. But that doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.
Rick Warren
Image
Jesus measured greatness in terms of service not status. God determines your greatness by how many people you serve, not how many people serve you.
Rick Warren
Image
The antidote to the lust of the flesh is integrity.
Rick Warren
Image
There is no growth without change, and there is no change without loss.
Rick Warren
