Genesis 50:20 applies to every area of life.
Rick Warren
Image
If you always feel comfortable reading God's Word, you're either not reading ALL of it, or you aren't letting it sink in.
Rick Warren

What surprises me most about God is that the creator of the universe should want a relationship with me.
Rick Warren
Image
A pretentious, showy life is an empty life a plain and simple life is a full life.
Rick Warren

Nothing shapes your life more than the commitments you choose to make.
Rick Warren
Image
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
Image
Lasting love extends grace. No relationship will make it without grace. The Bible tells us that this is part of love. You're not going to have a relationship unless you have forgiveness, mercy, patience, acceptance, grace. You've got to cut people some slack.
Rick Warren
Image
At first opposites attract. Then opposites attack.
Rick Warren
Image
We do not serve a distant and detached God who spouts encouraging cliches safely from the sideline. Instead, he enters into our suffering. Jesus did it in the Incarnation and his Spirit does it in us now. God will never leave us alone in our suffering.
Rick Warren
Image
God doesn't intend for you to handle all the pain and stress in your life by yourself. We were wired for each other. We need each other.
Rick Warren
Image
Worry is really just a form of atheism. Every time you worry, you're acting like an atheist. You're saying, It all depends on me. That's just not in the Bible.
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
Nothing else you do will ever matter as much as helping people establish an eternal relationship with God.
Rick Warren
Image
Great opportunities are often disguised as small acts of service.
Rick Warren
Image
Most of the time, it's your thinking, not your talent, that holds you back.
Rick Warren
Image
The Bible says that evil cannot be negotiated with. It has to just be stopped.
Rick Warren
Image
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
Image
There's a Grand Designer behind everything. Your life is not a result of random chance, fate, or luck. There is a master plan. History is His story. God is pulling the strings.
Rick Warren
Image
So I would say God hates war, but God loves every soldier.
Rick Warren
Image
Your value is not determined by your valuables, and God says the most valuable things in life are not things!
Rick Warren
