Are you struggling thru this pandemic? Turn off the television/social media and open your bible daily. Two years ago I started meditating on the Promises Of God and Character scriptures each day.(Outloud) This is one of the most transforming disciplines I I have ever experienced in 27 years of my faith. . Many Christians have a good understanding of the Bible mentally. But most never get the Word rooted in their heart. You will not see a long term transformation Until Gods Word is deeply rooted in your heart. Meditating is a foundational tool to achieving this.
Rick I have been listening to for a couple of years. As a stepfather I face unique challenges. I lost God in my life for years, but my realization a few years ago was that Christ was actually in my life. I found you online and cannot thank you enough for your spiritual guidance. Thank you!
This is one of the best sermons I have ever heard. A week ago I received a call and it turned into a quarrel unintentionally. The person got angry and if I had heard this before that discussion, I would have realized what was happening and gotten off the phone quickly. I learned a lot here and would never allow that to happen again as I now am prepared beforehand to handle such situations.
I must remember to pray everyday that I will live my life so that others will want to know Jesus Christ as LORD and Savior. Thank you very much for the reminder.
You’re great Rick Warren, I’ve tried to listen to other pastors and go to Mass but in the end I come back to you. Thank You for delivering these messages and videos that help me very much ❤️
God definitely speaks directly through Pastor Rick Warren. I hear all the right messages exactly when I need to hear them when this man speaks. Thank God for you. Youve been a huge blessing in my life good sir. Thank you for being the man of faith that you are.
So TRUE and APPLICABLE! I just spent 4 HOURS on this 50 min message; taking notes, looking up scripture and praying on my knees (and crying). I know God's timing is perfect.... Oh, how I wish, I'd had these truths all my life. Thank you, Pastor Rick, for all your personal experience and exhaustive work on this message! T
It's amazing.... i read your book many years ago, and never knew you were a pastor..lol. That's how easy the book was to read. I wasn't a Christian then, and i didn't feel the pressure to read your work. Maybe if i knew it was a Christian book, at that time in my life, i would not have read it. My disobedience was on 10.lol,,..I am delivered so i can laugh at it NOW. Pastor Warren, i really appreciate the spirit of God within you, i recognize it because He is ONE spirit and we are connected spiritually. The reason i am writing is because i am deeply hurting. I am a Black woman living in America. I am deeply disappointed in the way Christians Leaders have been silent about the mistreatment of Black people suffering persecution at the hands of people who are White. I am asking you to preach and teach your followers about what they are doing. Is it that God have blinded the eyes of White Americans the way Isrealites were/are considering Christ? I am asking with the utmost respect and sincerity. America needs to hear YOUR voice as you hear from God. I have Black children, who work hard, follow the rules, live by the law, and love the Lord immensely. Pastor Warren I WANT THEM TO LIVE. I fear that someone will judge them by the color of their, and kill them. I beg you Man of God, these are the end times as we know, Please be on the right side of history. White Christians who say they know God, should be moved by the HOLY SPIRIT, if you hate because of the color of the skin. THAT IS NOT OF GOD, THAT IS OF THE DEVIL. Please make it clear, that we should love our neighbors. Pastor Warren i appreciate you, and i love that you love the Lord. I pray that you will urgently teach that first 2 commandment is to love God and love our neighbors. Those are the first 2. We are your neighbors.....stop killing us. Speak out NOW against it! MY FAMILY IS DYING. With love and respect, Staci Adjoa Elias
I'm so guilty as charged. I'm doing better with this because of the Bible but I've been slacking in time with God and I won't blame others. I'm tempted tho. Crux in point. This is a great teaching! I've been through it a few times. It's so convicting! I love the expository preaching too giving me a real sense of the meat of the Word! I feel like the transformation is getting it's root in me and waking me up to what I've been doing! Thank you for these sermons. They are very helpful!!! 🙂
THANK YOU for this practical and most helpful message in these trying times. It is a Godsend and I recognize my need for change in this matter. I've heard many sermons but have never heard this message from any pulpit. It is a wakeup call and I appreciate your insight and study of this topic. James does have a lot to say about the tongue and I chuckle at your acronymn "WMD's"--(words of mass destruction) which are actually something to take seriously as it affects our relationships. May we stay atuned to the Lord who is opposed to being quarrelsome and have a spirit of humility.
WOW!! The stuff about Neocortex and Limbic part of the brain, I wish I had heard this before in my many years, would have saved me some unnecessary grief! Should be easier hereon! Thank you Pastor Rick, you’re a life saver!!
Like most pastors he takes way too long to explain something that is actually quite simple. But, I have a lot of respect for anyone preaching tolerance and understanding :)
Thank you pastor Rick I fight with my mom everyday. I say horrible things to her and she to me etc... She is 92 with dementia going on. I try to get her to do the things the doctor wants her to do but she rejects him, me the eye doctor etc... I get so mad because im only trying to help her. I have come to the conclusion that I rally don't like her anymore and she me. I really wish her time would come but it just goes on and on. I already know I'm not going to Heaven because of this and my dirty mouth although I am trying to clean it up. I want to escape to somewhere but I have chickens that need me to let them out in the morning and at night. I am very unhappy right now
You must care for your mother or you wouldn’t have listened to this sermon or posted how you feel about quarreling with her. I must point you to Romans 7:13. You need someone to tell you how much you are sacrificing to help your mother. Where would she be without your care? She won’t be long for this world. God understands your struggle.
What translation of the scriptures is being displayed on your videos? I'm trying to follow along with my KJV and it's difficult. 1st time watching... Pastor Rick or anyone can add a reply with the translation he's using..THANKS..
