Learn What's Worth Fighting For with Rick Warren

There are many battles you may face this year. Some may be hard-fought, stressful, and intense; others may be small and easy to win. Either way, you will have to choose which battles you are going to fight. Nothing is handed to you for free with the exception of salvation. If you want to come out on top in 2016, you’re going to have to work for it. Pastor Rick shares his wisdom on how to discern which battles matter in your life and how to tackle them. You will learn about the three major battles you’ll face and the secret weapons you have to help you win.
You don't have to fight the battles of life alone, connect with us throughout the week Online at www.saddleback.com/online

[@CatherineShaney]

Dear my brothers and sisters in faith, May you please pray for me to have the courage to do what is right rather than easy. To hear God's Word instead of the devil's. May you pray for me to continue to have strength to keep pushing forward and keep the faith in God. In Jesus name I pray amen

[@ginny0719]

Just think how much more I would be if this pastor had been in my life in my 20's!!!! Wow! Now I'm binging my brains out and crying rivers of tears....oh cleanse me Lord!

[@onementality9781]

God allows us to live the lives we lived before we come to Christ so you can go out and in the world to bring the people we relate to the most back to Jesus. Embrace your faults and failures and go out and make Disciples out of lost Souls. Praise God for loving us first Amen

[@Irisol84]

My boyfriend used to be a man of God. Sadly his relationship with God has fallen apart. He cant stop drinking and thats the reason I had to end our relatiinship after 9 years. I still love him but I realized I cant do anything to change his problem. I have pray many times, I still do but I havent heard from God yet. So, I wish that if any of you who had take the time to read this, please also pray for him. He is a good guy with a good heart Thank you in advance

[@69LOLIN]

Irisol Irisol No one can make him change. It's his own battle and he has to do it by himself. U can pray, your prayers might not change him, but can change you ! GL!

[@CruzLegend3]

Irisol Irisol So interesting I see this comment. I just ended a text conversation with my boyfriend. In this very moment moving forward we will probably never be together again. But I told him, this is why I told him God needs to be a priority in our personal lives and in our relationship. Because we can never fully win these battles if we keep feeding the devils work. The drinking, the fighting, the ridiculous hurdles. It keeps happening because we’re not doing this BOTH in Gods way and WILL. And he tried to mock God in these last texts. AND THATS ENOUGH. I stopped texting and prayed. Said I’d leave him alone and pray for him and love him from a distance. That’s ALL WE CAN DO. I will pray for him too. And hopefully you’re happy now. I see this comment is a year ago. God BLESS. 🙏🏽

[@christopherjones7023]

"If nothing makes you angry, you don't love anything except yourself." Makes sense. And yes, I have picked fights before. Lately, I've been engaging in freelance apologetics, in fact. And I totally agree. If you can't think of anything worth fighting for, you aren't truly living. I don't like conflict, and would rather turn the other cheek or even act a little bit like a pushover, but make no mistake: God has made me a born fighter. I've always had issues with my temper if the wrong button gets pushed, and I know I could really hurt someone if I wanted to bad enough, and naturally I really don't like that about myself (in addition to being wrong to lash out at someone just because you're ticked, it reminds me too much of the old me, before God got a hold of me), so I do my best to hide that side of me, and tend to over-apologize if anything afterwards. Still, I can be pretty passionate when defending God, His word, and my siblings in Christ, precisely because I care so much. Praise God that He is teaching me to be patient and forgiving more and more each day. Also, I should point out attacking with a shield, while uncommon, isn't limited to Captain America (he's just the only guy that throws one in battle, which is not exactly a smart or safe tactic). Some shields in history even have blades or other weapons attached to them.

[@notebookluvr]

I am always working on my relationship with God, my self awareness and loving intentionally, but I don't intentionally set goals to fight for. I do have a strong relationship with God and he seems to put certain people in my life where i have lots of opportunities to work on these things. I rarely interact with anyone socially and mostly just interact with my teenage son who lives with me. I have found myself learning and growing so much during these experiences and relationships that I'm sure God sets in my life. I think God knows exactly what you need and puts it in your life to nudge you in the area he knows you need growth. You just have to be open to it. I guess i do make it a priority to continue to focus on having a better relationship with Him, so maybe that's why that happens. Years ago, at a very low point in my life, i called out to God and asked him to teach me what love is. I can not believe how much he has taught me in that time. God is good!
