Image
Your value is not determined by your valuables, and God says the most valuable things in life are not things!
Rick Warren
Image
There is one thing that motivates me. It is the global glory of God. I am first and foremost a missionary. I am an evangelist and a missionary.
Rick Warren
Image
God's Word is not meant just to inform you, but to transform you.
Rick Warren
Image
There is no growth without change, no change without fear or loss and no loss without pain.
Rick Warren
Image
I do believe in what I call the stewardship of influence as well as the stewardship of affluence. And that is you use whatever God gives you not for your own benefit, but use it to help people who have no benefit. And when you use whatever God gives you, he gives you more of it. When you use it well, he gives you more of it.
Rick Warren
Image
We're going to serve in eternity. We're not going to sit around on clouds you know this whole idea of heaven is wearing white robes with angels and play a harp. To me, that would be hell. I can't think of anything more boring.
Rick Warren
Image
Well, in the first place, military service, they don't call it service for nothing. You are actually serving your country. And it is a worthy and valid vocation.
Rick Warren
Image
We do not serve a distant and detached God who spouts encouraging cliches safely from the sideline. Instead, he enters into our suffering. Jesus did it in the Incarnation and his Spirit does it in us now. God will never leave us alone in our suffering.
Rick Warren
Image
I'd rather live dangerously for Jesus than exist safely for people's approval.
Rick Warren
Image
Don't worry about what you don't have if you do have faith!
Rick Warren
Image
I don't personally have enough faith to be an atheist.
Rick Warren
Image
Trusting God completely means having faith that he knows what is best for your life. You expect him to keep his promises, help you with problems, and do the impossible when necessary.
Rick Warren
Image
Great people are just ordinary people with an extraordinary amount of determination. They simply don't know how to quit. They just keep on 'keepin' on'.
Rick Warren
Image
Telling others how they can have eternal life is the greatest thing you can do for them.
Rick Warren
Image
If you talked to others the way you talk to yourself, would you have any friends?
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
What happens outwardly in your life is not as important as what happens inside you. Your circumstances are temporary, but your character will last forever.
Rick Warren
Image
Great opportunities are often disguised as small acts of service.
Rick Warren
Image
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!

If you're alive, there's a purpose for your life.
