Learn How Hope Is Your Anchor with Rick Warren 

Wow did Rick ever hit the nail on the head with his opening statements! "When a culture forgets God"

Im not sure how through it all i was guided by the divine gracious spirit of god to saddleback. And many other church and their mission to spread his love . I listen daily to the loving words of this church. I pray daily for all to feel the loving words of comfort. I see in me the changes he has made in me. I hold listen and find comfort in these sermons and his words. As we live in a place where hurt people hurt people. I compare myself to a sheep as i see i can be lost . I try my best to make amends forgive quickly and love without expectation of anything. I hope pray and have faith that if i continue on this path that you too will choose this also and we will be in heaven together . No hate, no pain no suffering. Love understanding and peace. My wish for all is to have a stellar day. Thank you much.

this made me cry. I think it was 13 yrs ago when my close friend gave me Purpose Driven Life Book. That time I find it boring. I did not read it. Now, I rush to bookstore to buy one. I could not find the big book. what I bought was the pocket size one. I feel this hunger of knowing God more. Thanks Pastor Rick for this book! :)

So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish: Job 8:13 KJV They that forget God have no hope. They that forget You have no hope. They that pretend to know You have no hope at all . They are without any hope. They are hopeless. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 KJV My hope is certain. I do not say I think it is true, nor it might be true, but I know it it true. I am absolutely certain it is true. Jesus is my hope. Of this I am certain. This hope is my anchor. For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife. Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; Hebrews 6:13‭-‬19 KJV An anchor keeps the boat from drifting and it keeps the boat steady in a storm. Without an anchor a boat can drift into unsafe water. I can trust You my anchor because You never lie. And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; Luke 18:1 KJV We ought to pray and not lose hope, for when I am weak, I am made strong. For I reckon that the things I suffer now is not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in me. And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. 2 Corinthians 12:7‭-‬10 KJV For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Romans 8:18 KJV If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Romans 12:18‭-‬19 KJV Let me leave the fate of other men in Your capable hands; for You say, "Vengence is mine." And so let me live at peace with all men. There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13 KJV My temptations are not unique. All men have experienced them: but You are faithful, You will not allow me to be tempted beyond what I can bear, but will with the temptation make a way to escape, that I may be able to bear it. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4 KJV When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. Isaiah 43:2 KJV Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. Therefore I can say, "when I pass through the waters, You will be with me; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow me: when I walk through the fire, I shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle me."

I am so thankful that I have just watched this. It has reminded me of who God truly is and to challenge my thoughts. Thank you Rick Warren for your servant heart. God bless you.

My son suffers from depression and has tried suicide several times. God has always prevailed

Certain hope hurts me a lot.. Because the time I trully believed, 100%, It never happened.. Why? And its really more painful

Faith + hope ❤️

hope gives me more time!

✝️=❤

Thank you

🙌

Amen In Jesus Name

Amennn

It does matter who you put in the WH...it is the duty of christians to take care of society....by putting men who respect God in postions of power...!

If you all haven't seen a documentary called.... It's worse than you think.... My Revelations of Jesus Christ ministries, I suggest you do.... all praise and glory to the most high Jesus Christ

Is the book for sale? Purpose for life?

I agree with you pastor but America its not a country America its a continent. The whole entire continent was name America 269 years way before the united states of America became a nation or even existed.

I needed this

Rick has helped me so much!

,there are ve8ry view scritures solidly used hope pastor Rick if it is my anchor it depends on the chain not breaking the chain being long enough the chain not looking from the anchor no. My faith that is grounded by Gods Word is my anchor. Hope is what we need when our faith is weak non existent and what is good for me when I am a baby and or ignorant of Gods Word!

I used to think that the purpose of an anchor was to brake the ship.

Shalom

Shalom brother....from calvary temple

How can I find that movie? I can’t find it anywhere all I find is another movie with the same name that has nothing to do with this story

September 2020. Still a huge blessing, thanks ps. Rick

Excellent Message. Thank you. "Verily the Will of God acts sometimes in a way for which mankind is unable to find out the reason. The causes and reasons shall appear. Trust in God and confide in Him, and resign thyself to the Will of God. Verily thy God is affectionate, compassionate and merciful ... and will cause His Mercy to descend upon Thee." ~ Abdu’l-Baha, Baha'i Faith

👍

This is exactly what I needed to hear! This is such an important message. I particularly liked when he said “just because you think something, doesn’t mean you should do it.” God is our King!

I think the devil gives a false sense of hope because if you ask most people they will tell you they have hope
