Rick Warren
Image
In Psalm 72, Solomon prays for power and fame but he says the purpose of influence is to speak up for others and one is the immigrant. He doesn't delineate between legal and illegal.

You must begin with God.
Rick Warren
Image
God doesn't intend for you to handle all the pain and stress in your life by yourself. We were wired for each other. We need each other.
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

Those who follow the crowd usually get lost in it. I don't know all the keys to success, but one key to failure is to try to please everyone.
Rick Warren
Image
You drift through life and let things happen to you, or go by design and say, 'This is what I'm intended to do.' The Bible is very clear that God has a purpose. But even if I know that purpose, I can't fulfill it if I'm out of shape.
Rick Warren
Image
Many believe one can be a good Christian without joining (or even attending) a local church, but God would strongly disagree.
Rick Warren
Image
There is no growth without change, and there is no change without loss.
Rick Warren
Image
To begin loving people today, we must close the door on the past. And that cannot happen without forgiveness! Forgive those who have hurt you - for your sake, not because they deserve it.
Rick Warren
Image
The most desired gift of love is not diamonds or roses or chocolate. It's focused attention.
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
Many people spend their lives trying to create a lasting legacy on earth. They want to be remembered when they're gone. Yet, what ultimately matters most will not be what others say about your life but what God says.
Rick Warren
Image
To me, thinking with the mind of Christ means to be thinking in light of eternity, which is what Colossians is all about and that our lives are hid with Christ in God and that eternity, we're going to spend far more time on the other side of death than this side.
Rick Warren
Image
Not everything in this life has a happy ending, but this life is not the end of the story.
Rick Warren
Image
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
