Rick Warren on TED
May 8, 2008
TED is an interactive place where ideas are shared and inspiration is cultivated from the words of great thinkers/do-ers and an interested internet community. A host of archived videos contain footage from talks given in previous TED conferences which TED encourages to be shared.
Of the many speakers included is Rick Warren, the guy behind ‘A Purpose-Driven Life’. In this particular video he reflects on “what we’ve been given” and how to turn “affluence and influence” into a purposeful life. Whichever way you feel about Rick Warren, I thought his talk provided some good food for thought. Check it out. Thanks to Boris for the link.

Great talk… I go to Rick’s church and he is no different their. Except, since it’s church, he mentions the linchpin in getting anyone to find their purpose, influence, place in this world and fulfillment… which is Jesus Christ. This of course is in the PDL text and everyone should do it… all the money I had, influence and talent didn’t mean anything until I asked Jesus Christ to enter into my life and heart. Then, things got awesome real fast. Whether I suffered or things happened well, Jesus Christ always saw me through it … great talk, Rick, thanks again… and thanks TED…..Chris
