The church must always show compassion, always.
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
Faithful servants never retire. You can retire from your career, but you will never retire from serving God.
Rick Warren
Image
I do believe that the Kingdom of God is present wherever Jesus is king. That's my definition of the Kingdom of God.

Now, what is Jesus Christ? The fruit of the spirit is a good example. Jesus is total love, total joy, total peace, total patient, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, and self-control.

The mission of Tom Peterson and Catholics Come Home to bring souls home to Jesus and the church is critically important during this challenging time in our history. I fully support this New Evangelization project.

What matters is not the duration of your life, but the donation of it.

You may have done some really nifty things in life, but if you think they're going to get you into Heaven, forget it. The only way any of us are going to get in is by receiving God's gift of grace, which is available to every person.

Living for God's glory is the greatest achievement we can accomplish with our lives.
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
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
Obviously there have been historically many different theories of the atonement and I think each of them has a part. But I think fundamentally it is the substitutionary understanding that God - Jesus took our payment and you can't understand.
Rick Warren
Image
You do not grow stronger by accident - you grow stronger by intention.
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
For God to mend your broken heart you must give him ALL the pieces. You can't hold any back.
Rick Warren
Image
Many people are reluctant to show mercy because they don't understand the difference between trust and forgiveness. Forgiveness is letting go of the past. Trust has to do with future behavior.
Rick Warren
Image
The easiest way to discover the purpose of an invention is to ask the creator of it. The same is true for discovering your life's purpose: Ask God.
Rick Warren
Image
Everytime you forgive you disappoint the devil.
Rick Warren
Image
God's purpose is greater than our problems, our pain and even our sin.
Rick Warren
