- Pain is inevitable. We know that Jesus never promised us an easy life, but he did promise he’d be with us. So how do we learn something from our pain rather than waste it? In this message, Pastor Rick kicks off a new series where we’ll learn the reasons we experience pain.

It is truth.l have passed through it.and l am still going through it God bless you pastor.
thank you so much for making these resources free n easily downloadable.
❤️ Amen & Thank you, Lord...😇😇😇😇😇
I love you Rick Warren. Every night I listen to you. You have no idea how much you help me. God bless you and heal you completely.
🤟🏻
Me too!
Thank you Pastor Rick ❤
How can anyone unlike this? I have just been through a painful experience losing my sister last week. Not to mention all the mental and emotional pain I've been experiencing this last two years. And the years before that! Never ending wilderness experience. And God has been my source of strength and comfort. My growth and my direction.
I’m sorry for your loss. I pray that you take comfort in knowing that she is in the company of our father. Whatever her suffering or anguish while on this earth is no more. As long as you continue to be a faithful servant you can also take solace in the knowledge that it’s not goodbye, it’s only I’ll see you later.
My condolences.. so sorry to hear that but am happy that the Lord is your Rock in those troubled times. God bless you and dry your tears in the end :)
I'm a Catholic convert. I was baptized by the Holy Sprit and with 🔥 20 years ago. I have studied and suffered since. When I read the purpose driven life it was so interesting and inspiring. Rick Warren gets it. There is no perfect church because people are flawed
I come to this by accident, or was it?
God sent me here to listen?
I'm listening and taking it in. God bless you Pastor Rick
Misery is tied to physical suffering. The more disabling bedridden pain the more insane .
You have changed my life with your teachings and your sincere love for Jesus Christ Our Lord. Praying for you and your family today and always. God Bless You Pastor Rick. May God Restore Your Health and Relieve You of This Pain in Jesus Name I Pray Amen ✝️✝️✝️
I lost my father last May due to COVID. It is still painful. Waking up everyday knowing that I can no longer be with my Papa keeps the scar from opening. Thru this message the Lord reminded me of His grace that I didn't deserve. Who am I to complain about this pain. Jesus had gone a lot of pain because of us. I am surrendering this pain to Him, for I know that He will use it for good. Your will be done Lord 😭
I know the saying "No Pain No Gain, No Cross No Crown" , but I pray for pastor Rick 's early recovery of his hands and feet's health as soon as the purpose of pain is accomplished.
amen 🙏
I pray the Lord removes this pain from you. God bless you Rick and thank you for saving my life by turning me to Christ Jesus.
Pain is the high cost of Growth. Amen. I agree with this teaching. I have been in so much pain in this life, mental, physical, emotional and I have always come out on the other side spiritually, mentally, physically and emotionally stronger and needing God more than ever.
Rick as always you teach from your life! Your directness and Christ-centeredness has brought me into true once more! Thank you for your transparency even as you walk through pain! Love and sincere prayers !
You preach with so much love .Thank you for being used by God to shepherd HIS children. I thank the Lord for you, you encourage and you inspires
💯 agree!! My biggest growth has come from the most difficult pruning season!! It’s in darkness I felt the presence of my Father the most🙏🙏🙏
Man i know about this. My lungs have been hurting for months after having covid. It finally feels like i’m getting better. Its a bummer Rick has had so much pain. He is a good guy. All the best buddy.
All my hopes and prayers.
I love you as well Pastor Rick. I strongly attribute my maturity in Christ to you and your messages that have continuously grown me up over the years. I call you my spiritual father, and I thank God for you and your family and your own obedience to Christ. I love you more than you will ever know. I pray and ask God to touch your body and the medical team surrounding you and I thank God for your healing.
Praying for quick recovery to you pastor Rick. I’m so grateful for your message, your resilience to keep preaching in the midst of the pain.
Thank you father god for allowing your loving grace and the gospel to be taught to me by such an amazing pastor Warren ans pator wood. Praise god. Bless up ❤

Praying for a miraculous healing for this faithful servant of God that has blessed so many. Your podcast is part of my daily routine as it provides so much practical Biblical wisdom. Thank you so much! We love you Pastor Rick❣️
My friend recently lost his mother and I sent him this video. I hope it was the right thing to do. I don’t wanna steer him away from God. I just don’t know what to say other then I am so sorry for your loss. I know one day I am gonna feel what he’s feeling right now. I am dreading that day cause I’m not strong enough, but I know God will help me when that day comes. My friend is one of the people in my life I care about the most. He drinks and does drugs and I don’t want him to kill himself. That’s my biggest worry. I pray for him every night. I don’t wanna lose my friend cause he means the world to me.
I really need a breakthrough in my relationship and in my career. Please pray for me.
I have grown more through the tough season I've been through. thank you Pr. Rick
Rick, I said a prayer for relief of your nerve pain.
Pastor, today's session reminds me of a book by Philip Yancy "where is God when it hurts". what a power full message. May the Lord give relief to you from your illness and return well to Heavenly service.
Pastor Rick, this is such an important message. Lots of wisdom here. Im in the midst of this pain now. God give me wisdom and strength to do and see things your way. I need to change. Open my eyes and heart.
I do pray God heals you completely.
Thank you so much Pa. Rick Warren for this encouraging and foundational biblical truths!!!
This message is just what I need. Knowing the truth about pain which is inevitable but misery is optional.
Thank you, Pstr Rick. May God heal you. ✝️🙏
As one of your daughters in faith I'm paying for you Pastor Rick Warren❤️
I live with chronic pain and fatigue. I have ms and fibro and arthritis and more. I am a caregiver for my finance. Mark has congestive heart failure and diabetes and lymphadema in both legs. Please pray for us. Life is far from easy. But we make it work. Mark has been sick for 2 years. I've been sick since 93 and diagnosed since 95.
Oh God, now I learned something from him, even our body maybe in bad condition but still look at him, he served us as well. I excuse myself It's ok not to served well when I feel unwell because I'm sick, but Praise God, he teach me by watching him like that.
You know only a few will be chosen amongst those who try.
I pray for your healing Pastor Rick. May God continue to shower his blessings upon you so that you can continue to touch and inspire others. Amen.
Amen ..what a great practical message.
I'm so glad Pastor Rick you're preaching on this topic in so much detail, there's so many out there in this hurting world that need to hear this! May God heal your physical pain as you help us all so selflessly!
The dislikes pains me. Be well Pastor Rick.
I’ve been in awful pain for 74 years. Tried everything physically and spiritually. If God is happy, fine .

I came before you God, our restorer, and our redeemer. I know that you took their pain upon yourself when you died on the cross. So I ask in your name for healing for Pastor Rick. Come now in the power of the Holy Spirit and restore this child of yours. I pray they no longer have to bear this weight on their shoulders. I pray that they also look to turn themselves to you during their time of struggling
Thank you Pastor I this was a tough time, but I be praying for your family we love you

Every morning without fail like clockwork I wake at 3 am. It is still dark and quiet outside, no signs of life. My household is asleep. That is the hour when I begin to walk through the furnace of hell. My abdomen begins to hurt slowly, gradually into a rising crescendo until the most excruciating pain ever imaginable takes control over my whole body. Then extreme fatigue and exhaustion will begin to envelope my whole being and I do not feel I am a living being any longer. The next words that come to my mind is this, "I am going to die today". Then I will struggle downstairs to my favorite sofa and lay there prostrate in pain. About 6:30 am I will struggle for my medicines and swallow them and then crawl back to the sofa again. Then in about half an hour my pain will begin to subside. This is is my routine for the past one year or more. Then when the pain subsides I begin to converse with the Father and Son. The conversation is short and can be summarised into three words, "Father please help".
Thanks my pastor Rick Warren, i lis always your preac every day
Thank you Pastor Rick for this message! I have been listening to you on Bott radio 94.3 here in Wichita, Kansas for at least the last 5 years. I didn’t realize you were on YT. This is the first time putting a face to your voice. Praying for your healing in Jesus name! ❤️🙏
As humans we are not God, there is only a certain amount of intense pain or certain length of time we as humans can tolerate it without some kind of relief. Everyone experiences pain, that’s true yet for some the pain is much worse- not everyone experiences horrible pain.
Nice to see you pastor Rick: I am glad you are here and allow us to see you are sort of ok. I know very well what is pain and I see that I am sadly not the only one dealing with this and would prefer to hurt for others than for myself because it would mean more and have better use like it did when I used to make videos about MS which is the main part of my painful journey. I did not need this illness to get me closer to God because I had it many ways and experiences before but ms got me closer to other people and b be more understanding toward others so I dedicated all my time day and night to answer all the messages I was receiving after posting my MS videos. I felt more willing to open up because I hsd more reasons to give my time to help who needed my attention and knowledge about the illness. Angela, Umbria Italy

Dear pastor Rick, my prayers and deepest gratitude to you for all you do, from Lima Peru. I am at the beginning of my walk with Christ and in these past 8 months you already taught me so much about God, I trust one day I will be able to attend a sermon in Saddleback church and my dream is that Saddleback will open a worship center in Peru soon ☺️ I pray for prompt relief of your pain, en el nombre de Jesus Cristo Amen 🙏🏻
HE bore my sickness and carried my pain! I'm redeemed from the curse!
We've not seen you Rick for long Time.
We miss you so much.
May God bless you And bless All humanity.
I have had pain for 30 years in more than one place on my body...I know what pain is...for years doctors just ignored me.. didn't care...now that I'm older, finally I found someone that really understands what I'm going threw but the pain is never going away unless there is a miracle...
I understand Eileen I feel your pain. Going on 28 years myself . Grown adult asking for change a windfall . No support system. You just spiral down and down . Sleepless nights sleep all day no money no friends no family. People become insane from gods absence. Insanity is caused from him not helping.
get well soon Ps. Rick...
Love you Pastor Rick. Thank you sooo much for the encouragement.
