People need fewer 'ought-to' sermons, and more 'how-to' sermons. The deepest kind of teaching is that which makes a difference in people's day-to-day lives. Jesus spoke to the crowd with an interesting style. When God's Word is taught in an uninteresting way, people don't just think the pastor is boring, they think God is boring!

When we place our faith in Christ, God becomes our Father, we become his children, other believers become our brothers and sisters, and the church becomes our spiritual family. The family of God includes all believers in the past, the present, and the future.
Rick Warren
Image
Salvation is not a religion. It's not rules or regulations or rituals. Salvation is a relationship. That relationship doesn't begin when you get to Heaven it begins here on Earth.
Rick Warren
Image
The Bible is clear that God considers 40 days a spiritually significant time period. Whenever God wanted to prepare someone for his purposes, he took 40 days.
Rick Warren
Image
The Bible says that God puts government on earth to punish evildoers. Not good-doers. Evildoers.
Rick Warren
Image
If God was small enough for you to completely understand him, he wouldn't be big enough for you to completely trust him.
Rick Warren
Image
If you talked to others the way you talk to yourself, would you have any friends?
Rick Warren
Image
A church will never grow beyond its capacity to meet needs.
Rick Warren

Who are you going to live for - yourself or God?
