Almost nobody gives thanks to God at Thanksgiving, unless there's a short prayer before we eat.
Rick Warren
Image
The Constitution does not guarantee freedom of worship - it guarantees freedom of religion. And this is what I call America's first freedom...
Rick Warren
Image
We always get into trouble when we doubt God's love, because when we don't trust him, we don't obey him.
Rick Warren
Image
There is nothing quite as potent as a focused life, one lived on purpose.
Rick Warren
