More quotes by Francis Chan
People accuse me of going overboard preparing for my first ten million years in eternity in my opinion, people go overboard in worrying about their last ten on earth.
Francis Chan
A disciple is a disciple maker.
Francis Chan
The point is not to completely understand God but to worship Him. Let the very fact that you cannot know Him fully lead you to praise Him for His infiniteness and grandeur.
Francis Chan
Lukewarm people will serve God and others, but there are limits to how far they will go or how much time, money, and energy they are willing to give.
Francis Chan
My love for prayer was an answer to prayer.
Francis Chan
I don't want to lose the awe we get to help another human being.
Francis Chan
Because I want to get a lot done, I can sometimes do that in the flesh. If I don't rest in the Lord, and enjoy him as I should, my action doesn't spring from my identity and enjoyment of Christ. When that happens, I end up getting the glory rather than Jesus.
Francis Chan
Can you worship a God who isn't obligated to explain His actions to you? Could it be your arrogance that makes you think God owes you an explanation?
Francis Chan
It is not scientific doubt, not atheism, not pantheism, not agnosticism, that in our day and in this land is likely to quench the light of the gospel. It is a proud, sensuous, selfish, luxurious, church-going, hollow-hearted prosperity.
Francis Chan
Giving that is not motivated by love is worth nothing.
Francis Chan
We are each given different gifts and talents by our Master. The thing that matters most is how we use what we have been given, not how much we make or do compared to someone else. What matters is that we spend ourselves.
Francis Chan
Do you know that nothing you do in this life will ever matter, unless it is about loving God and loving the people he has made?
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
People who are obsessed with Jesus aren't consumed with their personal safety and comfort above all else. Obsessed people care more about God's kingdom coming to this earth than their own lives being shielded from pain or distress.
Francis Chan
It's a pretty crazy task to try to describe God quickly. Everything starts with a healthy fear of Him.
Francis Chan
We are here to love. Not much else matters.
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
I really believe it's time for some of us to stop apologizing for God and start apologizing to Him for being embarrassed by the ways He has chosen to reveal Himself
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 got to make disciples. Fun nights and pizza nights are not going to sustain us.
Francis Chan
