More quotes by Francis Chan
I want to see people do more than simply raise their hand when they come to Christ. Where are the totally changed lives?
Francis Chan
We are here to love. Not much else matters.
Francis Chan
But God doesn't call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him so completely that we are unafraid to put ourselves in situations where we will be in trouble if He doesn't come through.
Francis Chan
Fear of God failing us leads us to cover for God. This means we ask, expect, and are satisfied with less.
Francis Chan
Marriage is one of the most humbling, sanctifying journeys you will ever be a part of. It forces us to wrestle with our selfishness and pride. But it also gives us a platform to display love and commitment.
Francis Chan
When the church really takes on the humble characteristics of Christ, that's going to lead to revival.
Francis Chan
It's a pretty crazy task to try to describe God quickly. Everything starts with a healthy fear of Him.
Francis Chan
When loving Him becomes obligation, one of the many things we have to do, we end up focusing even more on ourselves.
Francis Chan
Why is it that we believe God's promises of blessing but not his promises of punishment?
Francis Chan
Lukewarm people give money to charity and to the church....as long as it doesn't impinge on their standard of living. If they have a little extra and it is easy and safe to give, they do so. After all, God loves a cheerful giver, right?
Francis Chan
Churches we build only by our own efforts and not in the strength of the Spirit will quickly collapse when we don't push and prod people along.
Francis Chan
Doesn't every encounter with God only cause us to thirst for Him more?
Francis Chan
My love for prayer was an answer to prayer.
Francis Chan
We live in a world where people say that you can believe anything you want about God.
Francis Chan
Due to our consumer mindset, people are prone to jump from church to church, which weakens the church overall.
Francis Chan
We have control over our prayer life, our relationship with Jesus.
Francis Chan
Solomon warned us not to rush into God’s presence with words. That’s what fools do. And often, that’s what we do.
Francis Chan
The church becomes irrelevant when it becomes purely a human creation. We are not all we were made to be when everything in our lives and churches can be explained apart from the work and presence of the Spirit of God.
Francis Chan
Lukewarm people call 'radical' what Jesus expected of all His followers.
Francis Chan
When we work for Christ out of obligation, it feels like work. But when we truly love Christ, our work is a manifestation of that love, and it feels like love.
