A great commitment to the Great Commandment and the Great Commission will grow a great church.
Rick WarrenMany people allow their need for other people's approval to control their lives. They spend their lives worrying about what others think of them.
Rick WarrenYou are not an accident. Your birth was no mistake or mishap, and your life is no fluke of nature. Your parents may not have planned you, but God did. ... Long before you were conceived by your parents, you were conceived in the mind of God. He thought of you first. It is not fate, nor chance, nor luck, nor coincidence that you are breathing this very moment. You are alive because God wanted to create you!
Rick Warren
