When God gives, he holds nothing back.
Rick Warren
Image
Remember how far you've come, not just how far you have to go. You are not where you want to be, but neither are you where you used to be.
Rick Warren
Image
Without the grace of Jesus: a hopeless end. With the grace of Jesus: an endless hope.
Rick Warren
Image
I believe that the purpose of influence is to speak up for those who have no influence. And fame is not for our own benefit, or notoriety is not for our own benefit, it's for leverage to do good.
Rick Warren
Image
There's truth in every religion. Christians believe that there's truth in every religion. But we just believe that there's one savior. We believe we can learn truth - I've learned a lot of truth from different religions. Because they all have a portion of the truth. I just believe there is one savior, Jesus Christ.

Living to create an earthly legacy is a short-sighted goal.
Rick Warren
Image
The closer you live to God, the smaller everything else appears.
Rick Warren
Image
As long as you do things for God, you are a Hall of Famer in heaven's list.
Rick Warren
Image
People need fewer 'ought-to' sermons, and more 'how-to' sermons. The deepest kind of teaching is that which makes a difference in people's day-to-day lives. Jesus spoke to the crowd with an interesting style. When God's Word is taught in an uninteresting way, people don't just think the pastor is boring, they think God is boring!
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
It’s not just what you eat that matters, it’s what eats you. You can have all the right macrobiotics and organic food, but if your body is filled with resentment, worry, fear, lust, guilt, anger, bitterness, or any other emotional disease, it’s going to shorten your life.
Rick Warren
Image
When you have a major loss in your life, the first thing you need to do is tell God exactly how you feel.
Rick Warren
Image
Everybody wants confidence but you don't find it in self help books. You find confidence in the Holy Spirit.
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
Almost nobody gives thanks to God at Thanksgiving, unless there's a short prayer before we eat.
Rick Warren
Image
I think we live in a pluralistic society where we have to get along with each other and show common grace to each other.
Rick Warren
Image
Receiving, reading, researching, remembering, and reflecting on the Word of God are all useless if we fail to put what we learn into practice.
Rick Warren
Image
You're not really ready to live unless you know what you're willing to die for.
Rick Warren
Image
Be careful how you think your life is shaped by your thoughts.
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
