• Rick Warren begins preaching Saturday, 4:30 p.m., marking the first time the Saddleback Church pastor has taught since the death of his son in April. Warren will speak both Saturday and Sunday on the topic, "How to Get Through What You're Going Through."

• Family movie night at the Etnies Skatepark is tonight, 7 p.m., with the showing of Most Vertical Primate 2, about a skateboarding chimpanzee.
