Rick Warren on TEDTalks

Rick Warren

Pastor Rick Warren has become one of the most influential Christian voices worldwide, following the runaway success of his book The Purpose-Driven Life, which has sold more than 30 million copies. His Saddleback Church, which began as a small group in his home, now hosts more than 20,000 congregants. In this talk, he describes his own challenge to find renewed purpose in the wake of his book's success, and his belief that God's intention is for each of us to use our unique talents and influence. (Recorded February 2006 in Monterey, CA. Duration: 21:46)
