"Geeze Lord, why do you tell Rick all the good stuff?"
Rick: And the vote is in!
Ed: So are you going to tell us...today?
Rick: Yep. Sweet tea is preferred 7 to 1 over unsweetened tea in all Southern Baptist Churches.

“Missional means being a missionary without ever leaving your zip code.� Hey, what the … that’s from my book Planting Missional Churches!
And the winner of this year's award for the "Best Use Of Democratic Candidates In A Conference Setting" is...
or how about...
"Hey Ed, look I've got two free tickets to
Wrestlemania 65: Driscoll vs. Hybels...you wanna go?"
or how about no caption and just say...
you guys really do look like brothers. :-)
Rick Warren asks, "Am I supposed to read this part?"
Ed: You made how much on Purpose Driven Life?
Rick: Ed that's "7" zero's...just for last month alone...Ed, did I tell you that I've paid back every dime that Saddleback has ever paid me. And, I still drive my 1995 Ford Explorer?
At this year's Pastoral Facial Hair Conference,Rick Warren outlines the intricate details on connecting the handle bar to the chin strap.
It says here, "Ed and Rick are long lost brothers."
Yeah, take a closer look, you'll see it.
"Dave Hunt doesn't look that good without the goatee, does he?."
Rick: Senator, I have never taken steroids while preaching.
Ed: What he said!
Stealing ideas for my next book.
"look at all the colors on that page man..."
At Karaoke night, Rick sings try to sing "Livin on a Prayer." While Ed sits waiting on his turn to sing Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma!
Rick: "I'll try the apple pie with a decaf coffee."
Ed: (thinking) "Should I go with the apple or coconut cream?"
:)
Rick: Did you see this deal where you and a guest can escort Scarlett Johansson to her movie premiere? What do you think I should bid?

Rick: "I really don't remember ordering seven boxes of Cheeze-its from room service."
Rick: "Hey Ed, says here that Publix has Cheez-It's on sale this week buy one get one free . . ."
Ed: "Cool!!!"
Rick: "unless your last name is Stetzer or you are from FBC Hendersonville and need 400 boxes."
Ed: "Curses! Foiled again!"
Miss Clairol: Before and After.
:) Couldn't resist.
goatees + wavy hair = missional
Rick to Ed: "the DNA results are in...it's undeniable, we're twins."
Rick: And that concludes our discussion of why influential church leaders should have goatees.
Rick: ----
Ed: Boy, this cardboard cutout of Rick Warren sure is life-like. I'd better take it home with me.
Ed thinks to himself, "How many times do I have to tell Ricky, that is not how you spell Tulip?"
A serious moment:
Ed tells Rick: Yeow man!I “see� what you're saying...
"Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear..." Rev 1:3
Rick responds: That may be, but are you really hearing me?...
"Blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear." Matthew 13:16
Rick: Ed, according to these latest SBC statistics you are neither the youngest or the thinnest.
"He ain't heavy, He's hes my brother."
Ed's thinking, "There's got to be a good book idea on that paper somewhere!"
WARREN
CONFIDENTIAL FROM STAFFER:
RICK:
NEW DATA - EARTH HAS COOLED .67 DEGREES IN THE PAST 100 YEARS. DON'T MENTION THE GLOBAL WARMING THING... IT WAS A HOAX.
ED
OH NO... THAT'S GOTTA HURT! HOW CAN I TURN THIS INTO A POSITIVE MISSIONAL MOMENT? HMMM.

I LOVE YOU MAN,
CAMPI
Ed, I was wondering what your thoughts are on a objection I heard against planting missional churches or being missional. The objection goes something like this:
" Being missional is just the church growth movement repackaged. Jesus said he will build his church. Jesus builds the church not man and his clever ideas. The people who are saying that we need to contextualize are not the real church."
By the way I do read your blog and do have your book 'Breaking the Missional Code' and enjoyed it and have learned.
Warren: "Ed, it says here that you purchased over 1,000 of my books 'the purpose driven life' and failed to pay for them"
Ed: "I thought they were free so I gave them out to try and be Missional".
Ed, having spent 10 years under Rick's leadership, I can tell you I know exactly what's going on in this picture.
Eager to take fellowship to new depths, Rick Warren approaches Ed Stetzer with his infamous "holy blowing in the ear" greeting, capable of creating decade-long partnerships among Christians on the Left Coast. However, everyone else thinks it's just creepy, except maybe the French.
