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.

The fact is, Scripture is filled with divine actions that don't fit our human standards of logic or morality. But they don't need to, because we are the clay and He is the Potter. We need to stop trying to domesticate God or confine Him to tidy categories and compartments that reflect our human sentiments rather than His inexplicable ways.

With my natural communication abilities, I could probably gather a crowd even without the Spirit.

I could fill my whole time doing interviews, speaking to crowds, and there's this natural human tendency because of our culture to think that the more people I talk to, the bigger the impact I'll have, and yet Jesus didn't spend His time just speaking to the masses. He spent the bulk of his time with a small group of people.

Having faith often means doing what others see as crazy.

Even in my own church I heard the words, 'Francis Chan' more than I heard the words, 'Holy Spirit.'

Parents are supposed to instruct their kids. It doesn't mean they necessarily have that gift of teaching.

There's no sense in improving your marriage until you are secure with God.

In the midst of our failed attempts at loving Jesus, His grace covers us.

God is so clear in spelling out His attributes in scripture in order that others would know what He is really like.

Do you love this God who is everything, or do you just love everything He gives you?
Francis Chan
Image
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.

Christians are like manure: spread them out and they help everything grow better, but keep them in one big pile and they stink horribly.
