Pastor Rick, I’ve been listening to Daily Hope and your books, live in another state or would attend your church, thank you for always helping me study and being such a fantastic Pastor I look forward to listening to Daily Hope every day🙌♥️

I am a regional truck driver in West Michigan who has taken Zig Ziglars term “Automobile University” to heart. I work really hard to fill my drive time with things that uplift, encourage and educate myself and this podcast doesn’t let me down. After I listen to my Youversion bible reading plans I move on to Rick Warren, Greg Laurie and Dave Ramsey for my daily podcasts. I also listen to Andy Stanley and Craig Groeschel podcasts weekly along with The Bible Project. I’ve listened to Rick on and off for 14 years. Different jobs have different drive times and I’ve added and deleted podcasts based on my seat time. Rick has been there from the beginning. Thank you for making this content so easily digestible. Keep it up sir. You’re a great teacher and a source of great encouragement.

This podcast is more than just my daily spirituality boost (which I drastically miss on the weekends)! This podcast continues to speak to my life and WHAT I need in my day to day. As a recovering addict, Pastor Rick digs into my dark places and helps me to turn the light on. Thank you so much for this soul medication!

I have been listening to Pastor Rick’s Daily Hope every day for almost 4 years now. I was born a Christian, but after listening regularly to Pastor Rick’s sermons through Daily Hope, I was encouraged to dig deeper into my faith, to read God’s word daily, and to truly be born again. I could go on for several paragraphs to say all the ways my life has changed for the better, but I’ll end it simply in saying this podcast was a catalyst to me deepening my relationship with the Lord and to listening to His voice to follow the plan He has for me. To live out the dreams God has put onto my heart. What an absolute blessing! Start listening, and be ready to hear God’s voice calling you to closer, fuller relationship. Be ready for life change.
