Get equipped to grow your members, raise up leaders & spark renewal across every area of your church-from worship to spiritual health #PurposeDrivenChurch
Preaching tip of the day: Ask for a specific response. Nothing becomes dynamic until it becomes specific. People respond better to a direct call to action than a vague suggestion.
The things you wish were most removed from your life are often what God uses to shape you & make you into who he wants you to be. He wants to use that problem for good in your life. There’s something more important than your pain - what you’re learning from that pain. @RickWarren
Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. James 5:16

Anytime anyone stirs fear in you,
it's for THEIR benefit. Don't be manipulated!
365 times God commands us to FEAR NOT!
One for each day
The Spirit of fear is never the Spirt of God!
2 Tim. 1:7 “God has NOT GIVEN us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power & love & self-control!”
The Bible says that you also honor God when you express gratitude to him. God says this in Psalm 50: “Giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me” (Psalm 50:23 NLT).
When your members get involved in ministry, they are far more likely to become bringers. And the more leaders you have involved in ministry, the more your members feel connected and cared for. Your church’s capacity to grow increases as people leave their seats to serve others.
@RickWarren final message, that was his 1st, as Sr. Pastor of @Saddleback is amazingly inspirational, it should be the foundation of every Church and the @PD_Church movement. Thankful for #RickAndKayWarren ministry and they mentorship in the distance even if don’t know me.
From the very first service on March 30 1980, Pastor Rick has always chosen to begin with the end in mind. It’s become a strong Purpose Driven value. As Pastor Rick wraps up his time as senior pastor at Saddleback, we honor for how well he began his church with the end in mind.
43 yrs ago I preached my 1st sermon to the 1st service of Saddleback church, called
"The Beginning of a Miracle!"
I shared the specific PROMISES of God we would base the new church on.
Today, as my LAST message as Senior Pastor,
I'll re-preach that 1st message! Watch online
