More quotes by Rick Warren

Image
God made every one of us a sexual being, and that is good. Attraction and arousal are the natural, spontaneous, God-given responses to physical beauty, while lust is a deliberate act of the will.
Rick Warren
Image
The only way you can serve God is by serving other people.
Rick Warren
Image
I can't get my wife to agree with me on everything or my kids to agree with everything.
Rick Warren
Image
Never procrastinate in showing love. Don't delay. Don't put it off. Do it now.
Rick Warren
Image
God uses everything for good in our lives.
Rick Warren
Image
If others don't use their gifts, you get cheated, and if you dont use your gifts, they get cheated.

We do not have to make the Bible relevant - it already is! But we do have to show its relevance.
Rick Warren
Image
That's God's number one purpose, to make us like Christ.

I don't believe my interpretation's inerrant. I don't believe anybody else's interpretation is inerrant, but I do believe the scripture is inerrant. I believe in the plenary, verbal plenary inspiration of scripture, without a doubt.
Rick Warren

One day it's all going to be clear. It's all going to make sense. You're going to be able to say, So that's why God allowed that in my life! Until then, God wants you to trust him.
Rick Warren
Image
We often miss hearing God's voice simply because we aren't paying attention.
Rick Warren
Image
All leaders are learners. The moment you stop learning, you stop leading. I learn as much as I can, from as many as I can, as often as I can.
Rick Warren
Image
Genesis 50:20 applies to every area of life.
Rick Warren
Image
The closer you live to God, the smaller everything else appears.
Rick Warren
Image
The greatest gift God gave us is also our greatest curse, which is the free will. We are made in God's image, the Bible says, which means we have the ability to love him or not love him, to reject him or not reject him.
Rick Warren
Image
As long as you pretend to be self-sufficient, you short-circuit God's power in your life. You need to admit your inadequacy and say, God, I can't handle this!
Rick Warren
Image
Pride builds walls between people, humility builds bridges.
Rick Warren
Image
The Bible says that evil cannot be negotiated with. It has to just be stopped.
Rick Warren
Image
We're going to worship in eternity. So what does God want me to do while we're here on earth? Practice. Practice worshipping.
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
