Image
God is love. He didn't need us. But he wanted us.
Rick Warren
Image
Jesus measured greatness in terms of service not status. God determines your greatness by how many people you serve, not how many people serve you.
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
Emphasize reconciliation, not resolution. It is unrealistic to expect everyone to agree about everything. Reconciliation focuses on the relationship, while resolution focuses on the problem. When we focus on reconciliation, the problem loses significance and often becomes irrelevant.
Rick Warren
Image
You don't have to be famous to be great.
Rick Warren
Image
The most important is to prepare you for eternity.
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
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.
Rick Warren
Image
Most of the time, it's your thinking, not your talent, that holds you back.
Rick Warren
Image
The greatest gift God gave us is also our greatest curse, which is the free will. We are made in God's image, the Bible says, which means we have the ability to love him or not love him, to reject him or not reject him.
Rick Warren
Image
I can't get my wife to agree with me on everything or my kids to agree with everything.
Rick Warren
Image
In Eden, worship was not an event to attend, but a perpetual attitude.
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
God made every one of us a sexual being, and that is good. Attraction and arousal are the natural, spontaneous, God-given responses to physical beauty, while lust is a deliberate act of the will.
Rick Warren
Image
The Bible says that God puts government on earth to punish evildoers. Not good-doers. Evildoers.
Rick Warren
Image
Telling others how they can have eternal life is the greatest thing you can do for them.
Rick Warren
Image
If you have ever said, I didn't get anything out of worship today, you worshiped for the wrong reason. Worship isn't for you. It's for God.
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
How much are you worth? Jesus says, with his arms stretched out on the cross, I'm willing to die for you, because you mean this much to me.
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.
