More quotes by Rick Warren

Image
Hiding your hurt only intensifies it. Problems grow in the dark and only become bigger and bigger, but when exposed to the light of truth, they shrink. You are only as sick as your secrets. So take off your mask, stop pretending you're perfect and walk into freedom.
Rick Warren
Image
If you always feel comfortable reading God's Word, you're either not reading ALL of it, or you aren't letting it sink in.
Rick Warren
Image
You weren't put on earth to be remembered. You were put here to prepare for eternity.
Rick Warren
Image
Great opportunities are often disguised as small acts of service.
Rick Warren
Image
I have the greater glory of God, the history is His story, that He is in charge and ultimately He knows what He's doing.
Rick Warren
Image
In all my travels, I've never seen a country's population more determined to forgive, and to build and succeed than in Rwanda.

Rick Warren

Many people are reluctant to show mercy because they don't understand the difference between trust and forgiveness. Forgiveness is letting go of the past. Trust has to do with future behavior.
Rick Warren
Image
Since God intends to make you like Jesus, he will take you through the same experiences Jesus went through. That includes loneliness, temptation, stress, criticism, rejection, and many other problems.
Rick Warren
Image
The way God teaches us to live by faith is He takes away our feelings.
Rick Warren
Image
Pride builds walls between people, humility builds bridges.
Rick Warren
Image
Without implementation, all of our Bible studies are worthless.
Rick Warren
Image
We get 80 years, maybe at the most 100. Trillions of years in eternity. This life is preparation for the next. This is the warm-up back, this is the dress rehearsal, this is the get ready, this is the first lap around the track before the real race begins because it is in eternity.
Rick Warren
Image
People are always more encouraged when we share how God's grace helped us in weakness than when we brag about our strengths.
Rick Warren
Image
The most essential quality for leadership is not perfection but credibility. People must be able to trust you.
Rick Warren
Image
You never know God is all you need until God is all you have.
Rick Warren
Image
God's purpose is greater than our problems, our pain and even our sin.
Rick Warren
