More quotes by Rick Warren
A church must grow larger and smaller at the same time. Larger through worship and smaller through small groups.
Rick Warren
Your spiritual family is even more important than our physical family because it will last forever.
Rick Warren
If you have felt hopeless, hold on! Wonderful changes are going to happen in your life as you begin to live it on purpose.
Rick Warren
At first opposites attract. Then opposites attack.
Rick Warren
God wants to use you to make a difference in His world. He wants to work through you. What matters is not the duration of your life, but the donation of it. Not how long you lived, but how you lived.
Rick Warren
The most common way Jesus comes into our lives is through a broken heart.
Rick Warren
We're going to serve in eternity. We're not going to sit around on clouds you know this whole idea of heaven is wearing white robes with angels and play a harp. To me, that would be hell. I can't think of anything more boring.
Rick Warren
The only really happy people are those who have learned how to serve.
Rick Warren
I'm looking for a second reformation. The first reformation of the church 500 years ago was about beliefs. This one is going to be about behavior. The first one was about creeds. This one is going to be about deeds. It is not going to be about what does the church believe, but about what is the church doing.
Rick Warren
In 35 yrs of leading I've been afraid at every major step but I DID IT ANYWAY since I REFUSE let fear run my life.
Rick Warren
Where the grass is greener, the water bill is bigger.
Rick Warren
Much of what happens in our world is evil and bad, but God specializes in bringing good out of it.
Rick Warren
The Bible says that evil cannot be negotiated with. It has to just be stopped.
Rick Warren
The fact is, you can say you love God and sing that you trust God and put him first, but your checkbook is where you can show just how much God's grace means to you.
Rick Warren
Two thousand years ago, in the Middle East, an event occurred that permanently changed the world. Because of that event, history was split. Every time you write a date, you’re using the Resurrection of Jesus Christ as the focal point.
Rick Warren
Patience puts up with those you'd like to put down
Rick Warren
The most essential quality for leadership is not perfection but credibility. People must be able to trust you.
Rick Warren
The race to be a leader is crowded, but the field is wide open for those willing to be servants
Rick Warren
We need the value and the beauty of democracy, and the beauty of pluralism is there's a free exchange of ideas. Nobody is right all the time. I'm not right all the time. I don't agree with anybody all the time, and I don't even agree with myself all the time.
Rick Warren
If we condone torture, we yield the moral high ground to our enemies and encourage anyone who hates us to stoop to using that subhuman level against us. We reap whatever we sow.
Rick Warren
