More quotes by Rick Warren
Our goal is to make God look good in the universe.
Rick Warren
God's ultimate goal for your life on earth is not comfort, but character development. He wants you to grow up spiritually and become like Christ.
Rick Warren
One of the ways we reflect God's love and bring him glory is to accept each other just as he accepts us. This means we accept others' quirks and look past their faults in order to see a person created in the image of God.
Rick Warren
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
Life minus love equals zero.
Rick Warren
Living to create an earthly legacy is a short-sighted goal.
Rick Warren
Because God is love, the most important lesson he wants you to learn on earth is how to love.
Rick Warren
Real life begins by committing yourself completely to Jesus Christ.
Rick Warren
I believe in the separation of church and state, but I do not believe in the separation of politics from religion.
Rick Warren
Having authority implies accountability. If you reject the blame for failures under your watch, people reject your leadership.
Rick Warren
God is love. He didn't need us. But he wanted us.
Rick Warren
The fact is, ministry is too unpredictable to be motivated by security. It’s too unprofitable to be motivated by money. It’s too demanding to be motivated by pleasure, and it’s too criticized to be motivated by fame. Our ministry should be motivated by the pleasure of God, and God is pleased when we have a ministry powered by faith.
Rick Warren
You can learn from anyone if you know the right questions.
Rick Warren
Surrender . . .sacrificing my life or suffering in order to change what needs to be changed
Rick Warren
Leadership starts with understanding responsibility, not ability. Leadership is a Stewardship, not a show.
Rick Warren
There is no growth without change, no change without fear or loss and no loss without pain.
Rick Warren
Why is this happening to me? Why am I having such a difficult time? One answer is that life is supposed to be difficult! It’s what enables us to grow. Remember, earth is not heaven!
Rick Warren
Delays are as much a part of God plan as answered prayers. God wants you to trust him.
Rick Warren
We are created for community, fashioned for fellowship, and formed for a family, and none of us can fulfill God's purposes by ourselves.
Rick Warren
Almost nobody gives thanks to God at Thanksgiving, unless there's a short prayer before we eat.
Rick Warren
