More quotes by Rick Warren

Image
Hiding your hurt only intensifies it. Problems grow in the dark and only become bigger and bigger, but when exposed to the light of truth, they shrink. You are only as sick as your secrets. So take off your mask, stop pretending you're perfect and walk into freedom.
Rick Warren
Image
Forgiveness must be immediate, whether or not a person asks for it. Trust must be rebuilt over time. Trust requires a track record. If someone hurts you repeatedly, you are commanded by God to forgive them instantly, but you are not expected to trust them immediately, and you are not expected to continue allowing them to hurt you.
Rick Warren
Image
The Bible is clear that God considers 40 days a spiritually significant time period. Whenever God wanted to prepare someone for his purposes, he took 40 days.

I never have been involved in politics.
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
We are commanded to recognize His glory, honor His glory, declare His glory, praise His glory, reflect His glory, and live for His glory.
Rick Warren
Image
Emphasize reconciliation, not resolution. It is unrealistic to expect everyone to agree about everything. Reconciliation focuses on the relationship, while resolution focuses on the problem. When we focus on reconciliation, the problem loses significance and often becomes irrelevant.
Rick Warren
Image
God's Word is your owner's manual for life. It contains principles for health, finance, marriage, other relationships, business, and much more.
Rick Warren
Image
There are accidental parents, but there are no accidental children. There are illegitimate parents, but there are no illegitimate children.
Rick Warren
Image
I invite you to bow your head and quietly whisper the prayer that will change your eternity: Jesus I believe in you and I receive you.
Rick Warren
Image
Every problem is a character-building opportunity, and the more difficult it is, the greater the potential for building spiritual muscle and moral fiber.
Rick Warren
Image
You do not grow stronger by accident - you grow stronger by intention.
Rick Warren
Image
That's God's number one purpose, to make us like Christ.
Rick Warren
Image
Everytime you forgive you disappoint the devil.
Rick Warren
Image
The first step to becoming what God made you to be is to stop worrying about what others want you to be.
Rick Warren
Image
On Thanksgiving we do just everything except give thanks. We eat, we watch football, we have a good time with family. Almost nobody gives thanks to God at Thanksgiving, unless there's a short prayer before we eat.
Rick Warren
Image
Nothing else you do will ever matter as much as helping people establish an eternal relationship with God.

The church must always show compassion, always.
