Never procrastinate in showing love. Don't delay. Don't put it off. Do it now.
Rick Warren

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

Rick Warren

Rick Warren
Image
We do not have to make the Bible relevant - it already is! But we do have to show its relevance.
Rick Warren
Image
Lasting love extends grace. No relationship will make it without grace. The Bible tells us that this is part of love. You're not going to have a relationship unless you have forgiveness, mercy, patience, acceptance, grace. You've got to cut people some slack.
Rick Warren
Image
The race to be a leader is crowded, but the field is wide open for those willing to be servants
Rick Warren
Image
If others don't use their gifts, you get cheated, and if you dont use your gifts, they get cheated.
Rick Warren
Image
A godly man is never threatened by the gifts of a godly woman.
Rick Warren
Image
I wish that those who believe in the doctrines of grace would be more gracious. That's all I'd say... I'm an evangelical. I believe the doctrines of grace.
Rick Warren
Image
We are commanded to recognize His glory, honor His glory, declare His glory, praise His glory, reflect His glory, and live for His glory.
