You don't bring glory or pleasure to God by hiding your abilities or by trying to be someone else. You only bring him enjoyment by being you.
Rick WarrenYou measure a church's strength, not by its seating capacity but by its sending capacity.
Rick WarrenI'm definitely not postmillennial. And I do not believe in bringing in the Kingdom by human means, in no sense of the matter.
Rick WarrenForgiveness must be immediate, whether or not a person asks for it. Trust must be rebuilt over time. Trust requires a track record. If someone hurts you repeatedly, you are commanded by God to forgive them instantly, but you are not expected to trust them immediately, and you are not expected to continue allowing them to hurt you.
Rick Warren
