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.

If it grows on a plant, it's healthy. If it's made in a plant, don't eat it.
Rick Warren
Image
We take ourselves way too seriously, and we don't take God seriously enough. It is not by accident that humor and humility come from the same root word. If you can laugh at yourself, you'll always have plenty of good material.
Rick Warren
Image
In the end we must be merciful to the fallen, show grace to struggling, and be patient with the doubting. But when God's Word is clear we must not-and we cannot-back up, back off, back down, back out, or backslide from the truth.

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

We are all called to fulfill God's five purposes for our lives: to worship, to fellowship, to grow like Christ, to serve, and to be on mission with God in the world.
Rick Warren
Image
Failure isn't a character quality. It's just an event. How you respond to failure is your character.
Rick Warren

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
Christmas is the time for celebration, so I'm not against decorating, putting on lights, buying gifts. In fact, the whole reason we give gifts is the wise men gave gifts to Jesus at the first Christmas, and that started the gift-giving process.
Rick Warren
Image
God's mercy to us is the motivation for showing mercy to others. Remember, you will never be asked to forgive someone else more than God has forgiven you.
Rick Warren
Image
Absolutely nothing will revitalize a discouraged church faster than rediscovering it's purpose.
Rick Warren
Image
Without the grace of Jesus: a hopeless end. With the grace of Jesus: an endless hope.

You can only make a difference by being different.

Your illness is not your identity. Your chemistry is not your character.
