Image
Your illness is not your identity. Your chemistry is not your character.
Rick Warren
Image
Living by faith isn't living with certainty. It's trusting God in spite of unanswered questions and unresolved doubts.
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
Without God, life has no purpose, and without purpose, life has no meaning. Without meaning, life has no significance or hope.
Rick Warren
Image
You don't have to be famous to be great.
Rick Warren
Image
As long as you do things for God, you are a Hall of Famer in heaven's list.
Rick Warren
Image
As long as you pretend to be self-sufficient, you short-circuit God's power in your life. You need to admit your inadequacy and say, God, I can't handle this!
Rick Warren
Image
Don't let your net worth determine your self worth.
Rick Warren
Image
I believe Jesus Christ came for everybody. I don't think he came for Christians. The Bible says take this good news to the whole world.
Rick Warren
Image
God intentionally allows you to go through painful experiences to equip you for ministry to others.
Rick Warren
Image
Worry is focused thinking on something negative. Meditation is doing the same thing only focusing on God's word instead of your problem.
Rick Warren
Image
The instructor is always silent when the test is given... ...When God is silent in your life... You are being tested.
Rick Warren
Image
Having authority implies accountability. If you reject the blame for failures under your watch, people reject your leadership.
Rick Warren
Image
In deep pain, people don't need logic, advice, encouragement, or even Scripture. They just need you to show up and shut up.
Rick Warren
Image
We need the value and the beauty of democracy, and the beauty of pluralism is there's a free exchange of ideas. Nobody is right all the time. I'm not right all the time. I don't agree with anybody all the time, and I don't even agree with myself all the time.
Rick Warren
Image
You must begin with God.
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
God hates loneliness, and community is God's answer to loneliness. When we walk alongside other people, we find a community where we learn how to love.
Rick Warren
Image
Temptation always starts in your mind, not in circumstances.
Rick Warren
Image
You were made by God and for God, and until you understand that, life will never make sense.
Rick Warren
