More quotes by 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
Grace is when you should be totally punished but are blessed for no reason.
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
Jesus didn't say that if you wanted to follow Him you could do it in a lukewarm manner. He said, 'Take up your cross and follow Me.'
Francis Chan
We have to believe it enough that it changes how we live.
Francis Chan
He does not have to know us so well, but He chooses to.
Francis Chan
He has more of a right to ask us why so many people are starving [than we do to ask Him]. As much as we want God to explain himself to us, His creation, we are in no place to demand that He give an account to us.
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
Let us be eager to leave what is familiar for what is true.
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
I don't want my life to be explainable without the Holy Spirit. I want people to look at my life and know I couldn't be doing this by my own power. I want to live in such a way that I am desperate for Him to come through. That if He doesn't come through, I am screwed.
Francis Chan
If you want to see the big stuff that God has, you've got to take some risk and trust only in the Gospel.
Francis Chan
When I don't think biblically, I go nuts. I just go, 'This is crazy.'
Francis Chan
Why would we need to experience the Comforter if our lives are already comfortable?
Francis Chan
People who are obsessed with Jesus do not consider service a burden. Obsessed people take joy in loving God by loving His people (Mt 13:44)(Jn 15:8).
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 God have an intimate relationship with Him. They are nourished by God's Word throughout the day because they know that forty minutes on Sunday is not enough to sustain them for a whole week, especially when they will encounter so many distractions and alternative messages.
Francis Chan
The irony is that while God doesn’t need us but still wants us, we desperately need God but don’t really want Him most of the time.
Francis Chan
The irony is that while God doesn't need us but still wants us, we desperately need God but don't really want Him most of the time. He treasures us and anticipates our departure from this earth to be with Him-and we wonder, indifferently, how much we have to do for Him to get by.
