Longing for the ideal while criticizing the real is evidence of immaturity. On the other hand, settling for the real without striving for the ideal is complacency. Maturity is living with the tension.
Rick Warren
Image
Fellowship is a place of grace, where mistakes aren't rubbed in but rubbed out. Fellowship happens when mercy wins over justice.
Rick Warren
Image
The Bible says that God puts government on earth to punish evildoers. Not good-doers. Evildoers.
Rick Warren
Image
Remember how far you've come, not just how far you have to go. You are not where you want to be, but neither are you where you used to be.
Rick Warren
Image
There is no growth without change, and there is no change without loss.

God's mercy to us is the motivation for showing mercy to others. Remember, you will never be asked to forgive someone else more than God has forgiven you.
Rick Warren

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
Christmas is the time for celebration, so I'm not against decorating, putting on lights, buying gifts. In fact, the whole reason we give gifts is the wise men gave gifts to Jesus at the first Christmas, and that started the gift-giving process.
Rick Warren
Image
Worship isn't an event to attend & watch. It's a lifestyle to be lived.
Rick Warren
Image
Regardless of the cause, none of your problems could happen without God's permission.
Rick Warren
Image
Great people are just ordinary people with an extraordinary amount of determination. They simply don't know how to quit. They just keep on 'keepin' on'.
Rick Warren
Image
I think one day Madonna's going to say Jesus is Lord, one day Muhammad is going to say Jesus is Lord, Hitler will say Jesus is Lord.
Rick Warren
Image
God wants us to practice on Earth what we're going to do forever in eternity.

Image
You measure a church's strength, not by its seating capacity but by its sending capacity.
Rick Warren
Image
Be careful how you think your life is shaped by your thoughts.
