Rick Warren Must Have A Great Editor

Articles Collection cover image

This morning I received an email from Rick Warren. Yup. Rick took time out of his Sunday morning, which I assume is quite busy, to send me an email. I would have thought he’d be busy putting the final touches on his sermon or perhaps praying, but no, he emailed me to ask if I can help him with a very special project.

I noticed that his style of writing is a little bit different in this email than in his books. All I can conclude is that he must have a really good editor – one he did not consult prior to sending me this email.

Below is the complete text of the email he sent me (which was sent from [email protected], so it must be him!).

    Dumb Will Do: Why Satan Doesn’t Need Heresy

    There is one memory of my earlier years as a Christian that I’ve never been able to shake. It’s a formative memory that I actually don’t think the Lord means for me to shake, for it has often reminded me that, when it comes to the local church’s worship, the stakes are sky high.

    The Things You Neglect To Pray About

    There is a close connection between prayer and humility. This being the case, there is also a close connection between prayerlessness and pride.
