Image
Get honest with God, and your focus will shift from just seeing your problems - no matter how overwhelming they seem - to the grace of God.
Rick Warren
Image
Prayer is the greatest use of my words.
Rick Warren
Image
We are not saved by good works we are saved for good works. The Christian lifestyle is to be a lifestyle of goodness.
Rick Warren
Image
Only you can be you. God designed each of us so there would be no duplication in the world. No one has the exact same mix of factors that make you unique. That means no one else on earth will ever be able to play the role God planned for you. If you don’t make your unique contribution to the Body of Christ, it won’t be made.
Rick Warren
Image
Absolutely nothing will revitalize a discouraged church faster than rediscovering it's purpose.
Rick Warren
Image
We take ourselves way too seriously, and we don't take God seriously enough. It is not by accident that humor and humility come from the same root word. If you can laugh at yourself, you'll always have plenty of good material.
Rick Warren
Image
You don't bring glory or pleasure to God by hiding your abilities or by trying to be someone else. You only bring him enjoyment by being you.
Rick Warren
Image
Without the grace of Jesus: a hopeless end. With the grace of Jesus: an endless hope.
Rick Warren
Image
Humility is not denying your strengths, humility is being honest about your weaknesses.
Rick Warren
Image
Your wisest moments will be those when you say yes to God.
Rick Warren
Image
You never know God is all you need until God is all you have.
Rick Warren
Image
You won't step on other's toes if you imagine yourself in their shoes.
Rick Warren
Image
When pressure builds up, don't panic. Pray! Prayer is a tremendous stress reliever. It can be your safety valve.
Rick Warren
Image
Most of the time, it's your thinking, not your talent, that holds you back.
Rick Warren
Image
You can learn from anyone if you know the right questions.
Rick Warren
Image
I could imagine God saying to a lot of us, Hey, I'm God, and you're not. You're not the general manager of the universe. And the greatest stress reliever is take God seriously, but don't take yourself seriously.
Rick Warren
Image
Temptation always starts in your mind, not in circumstances.
Rick Warren
Image
Gods plan isn't a map for your life that you see all at once, but a scroll unrolled a little at a time.
Rick Warren
Image
I happen to agree with many of the liberal emphasis on compassion, justice and equality. I just disagree that it's the government's role to provide everything.
Rick Warren
Image
The closer you live to God, the smaller everything else appears.
