Image
Pain is the fuel of passion - it energizes us with an intensity to change that we don't normally possess.
Rick Warren
Image
Building friendships with people from dissimilar backgrounds and diverse perspectives will make you wiser and more creative.
Rick Warren
Image
Transformation is a process, and as life happens there are tons of ups and downs. It's a journey of discovery - there are moments on mountaintops and moments in deep valleys of despair.
Rick Warren
Image
God changes caterpillars into butterflies, sand into pearls and coal into diamonds using time and pressure. He's working on you, too.
Rick Warren
Image
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
Image
God wanted us to choose to love him.
Rick Warren
Image
After learning to love God (worship), learning to love others is the second purpose of your life.
Rick Warren
Image
There is one thing that motivates me. It is the global glory of God. I am first and foremost a missionary. I am an evangelist and a missionary.
Rick Warren
Image
I wish that those who believe in the doctrines of grace would be more gracious. That's all I'd say... I'm an evangelical. I believe the doctrines of grace.
Rick Warren
Image
Many people, especially men, feel it is an admission of weakness to ask for help or to express a need. But there is absolutely no shame in needing others.
Rick Warren
Image
Biblical convictions are essential for spiritual growth and maturity. What is ironic today is that people often have strong convictions about weak issues (football, fashion, etc.) while having weak convictions about major issues (what is right and what is wrong).
Rick Warren
Image
I think one day Madonna's going to say Jesus is Lord, one day Muhammad is going to say Jesus is Lord, Hitler will say Jesus is Lord.
Rick Warren
Image
To make the best use of your life, you must never forget two truths: First, compared with eternity, life is extremely brief. Second, earth is only a temporary residence. You won't be here long, so don't get too attached.
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
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.
Rick Warren
Image
Your net worth is not the same thing as your self-worth. Your value is not based on your valuables.
Rick Warren
Image
When you use your life for God's glory, everything you do can become an act of worship
Rick Warren
Image
Between this day and the next you will give your life to something. The decision on what that will be will shape your destiny.
Rick Warren
Image
Hiding your hurt only intensifies it. Problems grow in the dark and only become bigger and bigger, but when exposed to the light of truth, they shrink. You are only as sick as your secrets. So take off your mask, stop pretending you're perfect and walk into freedom.
Rick Warren
Image
People ask me, Are you right wing or are you left wing? and I always say, I'm for the whole bird. A one-winged bird didn't ever get off the ground.
