While it is wise to learn from experience, it is wiser to learn from the experiences of others.
Rick WarrenMy hermeneutics is when I see verses in Scripture that are "apparent" contradictions - I don't believe they are contradictions - I believe them both. I believe them both. I believe take up your cross and deny yourself and follow me, and I believe come unto me all you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. They are different sides of the same thing.
Rick WarrenIn 30 years of travel and training leaders -164 nations - I've never met anyone who didn't need massive doses of love.
Rick WarrenNow, what is Jesus Christ? The fruit of the spirit is a good example. Jesus is total love, total joy, total peace, total patient, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, and self-control.
