The Bible tells us that there are some things worth fighting for. In fact, the Bible says there's some things worth dying for.
Rick Warren
Image
Delays are as much a part of God plan as answered prayers. God wants you to trust him.
Rick Warren
Image
Growing marriages aren't determined by how much you have in common but by how graciously you deal with your differences.
Rick Warren
Image
It’s not just what you eat that matters, it’s what eats you. You can have all the right macrobiotics and organic food, but if your body is filled with resentment, worry, fear, lust, guilt, anger, bitterness, or any other emotional disease, it’s going to shorten your life.
Rick Warren
Image
Faith is choosing and believing God's dream for your life. Nothing starts happening in your life until you start dreaming. God gave you the ability to dream, to create, to imagine.
Rick Warren
Image
Receiving, reading, researching, remembering, and reflecting on the Word of God are all useless if we fail to put what we learn into practice.
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.
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
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
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
A godly man is never threatened by the gifts of a godly woman.
Rick Warren
Image
God uses everything for good in our lives.
Rick Warren
Image
God is the Father who is full of mercy. God is the Father who is full of comfort. That is the kind of relationship he offers to you.
Rick Warren
Image
Pride builds walls between people, humility builds bridges.
Rick Warren
Image
I believe that - love is a choice. I believe that we love, that if I'm forced to love you then I don't know that I've really loved you.
Rick Warren
Image
The way God teaches us to live by faith is He takes away our feelings.
Rick Warren
Image
Your net worth is not the same thing as your self-worth. Your value is not based on your valuables.
Rick Warren
Image
Never be impressed with charisma. Look for character.
Rick Warren
Image
If you prayed as much as you worry, you'd have nothing to worry about.
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
