More quotes by Rick Warren
Humility is not denying your strengths, humility is being honest about your weaknesses.
Rick Warren
The way God teaches us to live by faith is He takes away our feelings.
Rick Warren
We get 80 years, maybe at the most 100. Trillions of years in eternity. This life is preparation for the next. This is the warm-up back, this is the dress rehearsal, this is the get ready, this is the first lap around the track before the real race begins because it is in eternity.
Rick Warren
In Psalm 72, Solomon prays for power and fame but he says the purpose of influence is to speak up for others and one is the immigrant. He doesn't delineate between legal and illegal.
Rick Warren
Faith in Jesus must be personal but it cannot be private.
Rick Warren
The mission of Tom Peterson and Catholics Come Home to bring souls home to Jesus and the church is critically important during this challenging time in our history. I fully support this New Evangelization project.
Rick Warren
Many people spend their lives trying to create a lasting legacy on earth. They want to be remembered when they're gone. Yet, what ultimately matters most will not be what others say about your life but what God says.
Rick Warren
The miracle of Christmas is not on 34th street it's in Bethlehem.
Rick Warren
Between this day and the next you will give your life to something. The decision on what that will be will shape your destiny.
Rick Warren
Your illness is not your identity. Your chemistry is not your character.
Rick Warren
What surprises me most about God is that the creator of the universe should want a relationship with me.
Rick Warren
The world is always changed by people who don't listen to conventional wisdom. I think we often set our goals too small and try to accomplish them too quickly.
Rick Warren
We're not in control but we do have a greater hope and we do have a source of joy that isn't based on our circumstances.
Rick Warren
Not everything in this life has a happy ending, but this life is not the end of the story.
Rick Warren
I have always been blessed with an enormous amount of energy. And so I didn't take care of my health at all.
Rick Warren
We receive from God, then we give to others.
Rick Warren
The next sentence is one of the most important spiritual truths you will ever learn: God develops the fruit of the Spirit in your life by allowing you to experience circumstances in which you're tempted to express the exact opposite quality. Character development always involves a choice, and temptation provides that opportunity.
Rick Warren
Faith is facing reality without being discouraged by it.
Rick Warren
To make the best use of your life, you must never forget two truths: First, compared with eternity, life is extremely brief. Second, earth is only a temporary residence. You won't be here long, so don't get too attached.
Rick Warren
We are created for community, fashioned for fellowship, and formed for a family, and none of us can fulfill God's purposes by ourselves.
Rick Warren
