Image
What we can't do in heaven is sin and witness. And obviously God didn't leave us here to sin.
Rick Warren
Image
That's God's number one purpose, to make us like Christ.
Rick Warren
Image
There is no growth without change, and there is no change without loss.
Rick Warren
Image
God uses everything for good in our lives.
Rick Warren
Image
Those who have hurt you in the past cannot continue to hurt you now unless you hold on to the pain through resentment.
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
I think one day Madonna's going to say Jesus is Lord, one day Muhammad is going to say Jesus is Lord, Hitler will say Jesus is Lord.
Rick Warren
Image
A father, finding time for what is most important is the true marker of a successful person.
Rick Warren
Image
Your spiritual family is even more important than our physical family because it will last forever.
Rick Warren
Image
Every temptation is an offer to doubt God's love and wisdom.
Rick Warren
Image
Ever feel like God is a million miles away? The truth is, he's not. Whatever struggle you're going through, you can rest assured you're not alone. You have God in your corner.
Rick Warren
Image
Life is too short to learn everything by personal experience.
Rick Warren
Image
Life is a gift... Life is a test... Life is temporary assignment.
Rick Warren
Image
I'm naturally inclined to have sex with every beautiful woman I see. But that doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.
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
God is love. He didn't need us. But he wanted us.
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
Image
Worry is focused thinking on something negative. Meditation is doing the same thing only focusing on God's word instead of your problem.
Rick Warren
Image
The world is always changed by people who don't listen to conventional wisdom. I think we often set our goals too small and try to accomplish them too quickly.
Rick Warren
Image
Kindness always starts with noticing the needs and hurts of others.
Rick Warren
