You can only make a difference by being different.
Rick Warren
Image
Your most effective ministry will come out of your deepest hurts.
Rick Warren
Image
Life is a series of problem-solving opportunities. The problems you face will either defeat you or develop you depending on how you respond to them.
Rick Warren
Image
Without implementation, all of our Bible studies are worthless.
Rick Warren
Image
War is and always has been a brutal exercise that destroys lives, families and communities. It is never something for which we hope.
Rick Warren
Image
Biblical convictions are essential for spiritual growth and maturity. What is ironic today is that people often have strong convictions about weak issues (football, fashion, etc.) while having weak convictions about major issues (what is right and what is wrong).
Rick Warren
Image
Living by faith isn't living with certainty. It's trusting God in spite of unanswered questions and unresolved doubts.
Rick Warren
Image
What matters is not the duration of your life, but the donation of it.
Rick Warren
Image
Building friendships with people from dissimilar backgrounds and diverse perspectives will make you wiser and more creative.
Rick Warren
Image
That's one of those questions I'm asked more often than anything else. Will my dog go to heaven? And I say well, the lion will lay down with the lamb.
Rick Warren
Image
It is impossible to do everything people want you to do. You have just enough time to do God’s will. If you can’t get it all done, it means you’re trying to do more than God intended for you to do.
Rick Warren
Image
Most of us want to have enough... good works to get into heaven, but enough bad works to be fun.
Rick Warren
Image
Explanations don't comfort. You won't feel better if you know why. It won't hurt any less.
Rick Warren
Image
Jesus modeled a purpose-driven life, and he taught others how to live it, too. That was the work that brought glory to God.
Rick Warren
Image
There is no growth without change, no change without fear or loss and no loss without pain.
Rick Warren
Image
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
Image
Satan tries to limit your praying because he knows your praying will limit him.
Rick Warren
Image
Willpower can produce short-term change, but it creates constant internal stress because you haven't dealt with the root cause.
Rick Warren
Image
A lie doesn't become truth, wrong doesn't become right and evil doesn't become good, just because it's accepted by a majority.
Rick Warren
Image
Your net worth is not the same thing as your self-worth. Your value is not based on your valuables.
Rick Warren
