A year ago I stumped upon “A purpose driven life.” I started reading his book and got a craving to know God more. This podcast then popped up on my feed and I am so glad I started to listen! This podcast has helped me so much and through some tough times. So grateful for this podcast

I’ve been listening to Rick Warren for years . He delivers incredible messages from the Bible and continuously gets me through the toughest times of my life .I would love to see this man in the OC some day! Love from Santa Barbara County <3

Perfect for encouragement every morning. Bible based and will change the way you think, the way you feel, and the way you act.

Excellent. Easy to listen to. Worth listening to several times. He’s a life saver. Thank you, Jesus!

Thanks for this message daily,you are a great Pastor that really makes loving God a great time each and every day

Thank you for inspiring me everyday, I’m growing in my faith, I stumbled but you make me feel it’s okay to stumble. You’ve really made a difference in how and what I think about thank you. God bless you!

Pastor Rick teaches with great clarity and helps you to understand with the help of the Holy Spirit. His passion to reach and help others live the Bible in a practical way.

This podcast has brought me great hope and peace on many challenging days. So thankful for Pastor Rick and Kay 💖

And Pastor Rick is a vessel to deliver the message to us! It’s always timely…

Thank you for helping me get my mind on things above everyday!

Thank you, Pastor Rick, for helping to start my day with smile. God speaks to me with such conviction through your words and I am grateful for you and your ministry. Your voice brings me comfort when I need lifting and stories make me laugh sometimes through tears. God has blessed us with you and your ministry. 💗

Be brave enough to take a step to grow and learn more about living as God wants you live! Rick Warren blesses everyone who hears and acts on the word of God!

I listen every day, and this podcast helps me to grow in the Lord. I’m a early childhood educator at a Christian school and this podcast not only helps me in my leadership, but helps me grow as a wife, mother and friend.

Pastor Rick Warren is God sent . He has helped me through so much in my life . I have started listening to his messages when pandemic started and he has been such a blessing since . May God bless you Pastor Warren ! You’re loved by so many

I have listened to this podcast M-F for years. If I miss the podcast, I will listen later. God has used both Rick and Kay in my life to encourage me to press on to the finish - eternal life with our Lord. Must read - Choose Joy and the devotional. Praise God for this couple! 💓🙌

I have been listening to Pastor Rick for about a month or two, I have felt such peace and healing from his teaching. God is speaking through him directly to me. I am so blessed to have found this podcast.

Whenever I am just not feeling myself this podcast makes me feel alive again. Thank you Pastor Rick!!

I need to give Pastor Rick a HUGE thank you for his time to share the Word of God. I really needed to hear these previous messages. I am so glad that God showed me you in my life. The words that God gives you are incredible! I have started to take notes on the podcasts that stands out to me the most, and it truly does help me when I really need to hear them. You are incredible and I can’t wait to hear more!

Pastor Rick guided me through one of the most difficult moments of my life. I found out my Dad was very sick and I hadn’t seen him in over ten years. He was a lost soul lost in the alcoholic life. I made a decision to travel alone to a different country and look for him. I was so scared but I knew in my heart it was something I had to do. The five days I was there every night before I went to bed I would listen to Pastor Rick and it was like God was talking to me and knew my fears and he confort me. Needless to say my trip went so much better than I thought. My Dad and I spend some much needed quality time together and I treasure every moment.

God Speak to me through Pastor Rick’s Daily Hope. I’ve been to so many seasons where I find God’s confirmation through the Daily Hope. I get my wisdom through Daily Hope & I share it to so many young adults & young couples that I disciple. The messages are so powerful & full of life’s lesson on how to be a follower of Jesus.

Don’t question or criticize a Brother in Christ before you personally sit down with him and let explain himself. I am encouraged by his comments. And I learned a long time ago I can learn something from the “village idiot”. And remember God spoke through a donkey. As I listen I ask God to speak to me. And He does. That process may work for others.

Beginning over 30 years ago, this man has done more to dumb down churches to cater to the world (in direct opposition to Jesus’ instruction) and to bring about much heresy in the American church.

I love your messages and wisdom. I have had depression for a long time and you really inspire me to seek the word. Thank You so much. Barbara Matranga

I enjoy listening to Pastor Rick’s messages as I include these in my Spiritual walk with God. They have enriched me with Hope, Love, and so much more! I Thank our Heavenly Father for talking to me through Pastor Rick Warren.

Powerful Massage….

Wow just Wow

Listening to Pastor Rick everyday helps me become closer to God and serves as a reminder that HE is here with us everyday.

Rick Warren changed and keeps changing my life. I love his preaching. It’s distracting that this podcast is perhaps 1/3 ads - at the beginning, in the middle, and again at the end. These ads are a few minutes long, and loud. Yes, they are for ministry resources, but why not confine them to just the the start or the end? It gives me the feeling you care less about how Ricks sermon transforms us and more about how to get us on your mailing list or get donations. These are valid and important, but shouldn’t overpower the sermon.

My morning wisdom from God Thank you for sharing HIS word. Bless you!

Rick Warren is a humble man who reaches me every night via podcast in South Dakota. He has touched my kids, grandkids, and their families in Southern CA. Thank you for reminding us of God’s love and passion for us. I have memorized and taken a new look at Psalm Chapter 23. Thank you for being a reflection of Jesus.

Pastor Rick’s teachings have strengthened and renewed my walk with Jesus

Excellant -the shadow always caused by God’s light being present. I like your new format, so we can listen to prev episodes.

I listen to Daily Hope almost everyday. I have always asked “Why” about everything since I was a small boy. Now, at 60 years old I still sometimes find myself asking “Why.” Pastor Rick seems to understand that some people need to hear about the “Why’s” in life and he always connects the dots and provides an answer to the many questions that continually bombard us in life. Wonderful ministry!

Pastor Rick blesses everyone who listens to this podcast with his wisdom, insight and plain spoken teachings from God’s Holy Word. His practical teaching edifies anyone who will listen.

Love to listen to this podcast during my workouts or whenever Im having a hard time sitting down to read my bible. Love to incorporate this teaching with my own bible study. Pastor Rick has an amazing way to teach God's word that get to the younger generation like myself. He definitely passes what the kids now a day would say "vibe check". Sad that he left Saddleback but I hope he continues reaching to us younger generation specially with all of these new corrupt teachings.If you ever read this Pastor Rick just know that you certainly saved a lot of the new generation with your ministry.

Daily Hope Devotion motivates you to motivate , you will never the same person :

I listen to this podcast everyday and blessed the way the Lord is using our brother Rick Warren I love you also my brother… Thank you so much, may the Lord Bless you, keep you, and may the Lord make His face shine upon you!!!!!!

Love to hear God speaking to me daily.

In today's world, where there's so much negative news and our identity is based on social media, we need God in our lives more than ever. Pastor Rick's practical and sound advice is our key to success, success in our family, life and work.

I received your daily devotional as a gift. I read it with my staff each morning at my pregnancy resource center. I love your words of truth and encouragement. It prepares our minds and hearts to do the Lords work. It is such a blessing!! Thank you!!

Hi my name is Ava I am 12 year old believer all my life I’ve been told that we were chistan so I went with it, but I Didnt truly understand what it meant to be a believer I knew that we read the bible and went to church but nothing more, I went to a public school and fell with the wrong crowd making vaping ok and cussing ok, I knew what I what I was doing was wrong but didn’t want people to make fun of me if I’d be a christan, I wasn’t any different than them so why should I act like I am any better because I was a believer. Something lead me into the church building one morning and I felt as the pastor was speaking to me. Later as I got home I was confused so I pulled out my phone and searched up christian podcast and there pastor Rick showed up. As I listened I knew god was talking to me as rick finshed I binded my hands and prayed I asked god for forgiveness, I made a list of not just myself but people I would like to pray for as well. Me and My family visited your church twice when we visted california and very much enjoyed it! Thank you Rick for helping me find my identity in Christ and get me on my Journey to a everlasting life with God in heaven. -Love ava-

You’re on the tread mill with me every morning, Pastor Rick. Thanks for lifting me up with a positive message. The Good News beats the cable news hands down!

Daily hope has changed my life for the best in every way imaginable. Highly recommend to listen to any of Rick Warrens teachings. It’s a truly a gift!

I used to think Rick Warren was overly simplistic and not a deep thinker. After all, he aims for a broad audience and speaks at perhaps a 7th grader level. Then I earned a master’s degree in spiritual theology. Now I realize that Rick Warren has such a deep knowledge of scripture and its application that he can work wonders with it. (See: The Purpose-Driven Life, one of the most popular books ever written.) He has a wonderful ability to make the Bible meaningful to everyday life, and every day life, if you know what I mean. And that is what the Bible should be for us all.

I’m so glad I was referred to this podcast in early 2022, it has been life-changing and eye-opening! I have grown closer to God after every episode. Pastor Rick Warren is funny, smart, educated and so wise. Love how he packages and frames his teachings! Everyone can benefit from this podcast.

Listening to Daily Hope gives me hope. Love the teaching tied in to a biblical verse. i feel like God is speaking to me. Thank you & God's best !!!

I start every morning by praying, then turning on Rick Warrens daily encouragement and hope podcast. It’s a great way to start the day and it helps me get my spirit and mind in the right place so that I can live a biblically-sound, God-honoring, joy-filled life. I’d recommend to all believers.

Rick teaches straight from the Bible - the truth powered by the Holy Spirit - praying for God to continue to bless his ministry

I’ve been listening to Daily Hope every weekday since I finished listening to The Purpose Driven Life. Daily Hope has been an important part of my spiritual and emotional maturity development and was foundational in my decision to turn my life over to Jesus. I continue to be a grateful supporter and dedicated listener to this podcast.

A great way to start your day
