Even through such simple acts as telling the truth, being kind, and encouraging others, we bring a smile to God's face.
Rick Warren
Image
When the Christian praises and gives thanks to God, this not only pleases God, but it enriches the Christian's life with joy. It is a reciprocating transaction between God and man.
Rick Warren

What matters is not the duration of your life, but the donation of it.
Rick Warren
Image
While you're waiting, God's working.
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
Image
There's a Grand Designer behind everything. Your life is not a result of random chance, fate, or luck. There is a master plan. History is His story. God is pulling the strings.
Rick Warren

Rick Warren
Image
Christians can be positive even in a negative situation because we know God has a purpose for allowing that problem.
Rick Warren
Image
Everytime you forgive you disappoint the devil.
Rick Warren
Image
A church will never grow beyond its capacity to meet needs.
Rick Warren
Image
Character is both developed and revealed by tests, and all of life is a test.
Rick Warren
Image
Explanations don't comfort. You won't feel better if you know why. It won't hurt any less.
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
We're not completely happy here because we're not supposed to be!
Rick Warren
Image
It is impossible to do everything people want you to do. You have just enough time to do God’s will. If you can’t get it all done, it means you’re trying to do more than God intended for you to do.
Rick Warren
