Rick Warren
Saddleback Church
If someone foolishly says "There are no absolutes" ask, "Are you absolutely sure?"
Truth is never relative, only our opinions about it. God's Word is inerrant; I'm not.
The world has zero need for rockstar pastors but is desperate for ones that stand on the Rock. A person like you.
It's better to be hated for your courage than loved for following the crowd."Dont follow the crowd in doing wrong" Ex.23:2
Healthy churches balance 3 types of teaching: BUILD-UP"edification" FIRE-UP"exhortation" HOLD-UP"comfort" 1 Cor14:3
My network "Don't let anyone treat u as unimportant since ur YOUNG! Be an example in words, actions, love, faith & purity!"1Tim4:12
Resting in the Lord is not laziness; it's an act of faith.
Confront passive-aggressive behavior toward you.You’ll both be healthier & u just might save the relationship. Prov 24:26
The greatest hindrances to God using you will always be internal, not external.
The simplest way to influence is SMILE "A leader's smile can give people life; his kindness is like a spring rain" Pr16:15
Never quarrel with a fool. It lowers u to their level & the people listening may not be able to tell the difference! See Pr23:9
To bring out the best in staff & volunteers: Give them a challenge. Give them control. Give them the credit.
Thru the Freedom of Information Act I got the government study they didn’t release that shows abstinence education works.
Never confuse acceptance with approval. Without approving all we do, Jesus accepts all who come to Him. We must do the same.
Cynicism is neither wisdom nor insight. It's just an unhappy attitude.
Leading requires a tender heart but a tough mind."Only simpletons believe everything they hear" Pr14:15 Opinion isn’t fact!
I do not believe in atheists, therefore atheists do not exist! (Ever heard that so-called "logic" used?)
If I believed u could change human hearts through LAWS I'd become a politician, but only Jesus can turn haters into lovers.
Those most proud of "fighting evil" are most blind to the evil in them."The heart is deceitful above all things" Jer.17:9
Demeaning & criticizing others is the dishonest way of praising ourselves. Others may miss our ego but God sees it. Ph.2:3
