Our hope is a certainty based on the truths that God is in complete control of our universe and that He loves us.
Rick Warren
Image
Transformation is a process, and as life happens there are tons of ups and downs. It's a journey of discovery - there are moments on mountaintops and moments in deep valleys of despair.

God wants us to practice on Earth what we're going to do forever in eternity.
Rick Warren

To begin loving people today, we must close the door on the past. And that cannot happen without forgiveness! Forgive those who have hurt you - for your sake, not because they deserve it.
Rick Warren

There is nothing quite as potent as a focused life, one lived on purpose.
Rick Warren

To me, thinking with the mind of Christ means to be thinking in light of eternity, which is what Colossians is all about and that our lives are hid with Christ in God and that eternity, we're going to spend far more time on the other side of death than this side.
Rick Warren

The greatest use of your words is prayer. Talk to God about EVERYTHING, all the time. Maintain a running conversation.

Rick Warren
Image
When I am playing with my grandchildren, that brings glory to God. So I don't think glory to God is simply serious. I do think that there is glory of God in laughter.
Rick Warren
Image
The next sentence is one of the most important spiritual truths you will ever learn: God develops the fruit of the Spirit in your life by allowing you to experience circumstances in which you're tempted to express the exact opposite quality. Character development always involves a choice, and temptation provides that opportunity.
Rick Warren
Image
Those who have hurt you in the past cannot continue to hurt you now unless you hold on to the pain through resentment.
Rick Warren
Image
You're not really ready to live unless you know what you're willing to die for.
Rick Warren
Image
God is far more interested in what you are than who you are.
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
Many people, especially men, feel it is an admission of weakness to ask for help or to express a need. But there is absolutely no shame in needing others.
Rick Warren
Image
I'm not a policymaker, I'm not a pundit. In fact, I don't have any interest in it. It's not on my agenda.
