More quotes by Francis Chan
The wise man comes to God without saying a word and stands in awe of Him.
Francis Chan
As we begin to focus more on Christ, loving Him and others becomes more natural. As long as we pursuing Him, we satisfied in Him. It is when we stop actively loving Him that we find ourselves restless and gravitating toward other means of fulfillment
Francis Chan
...no worship is better than apathetic worship.
Francis Chan
God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. The answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of do's and don'ts-it's falling in love with God.
Francis Chan
Lukewarm people call 'radical' what Jesus expected of all His followers.
Francis Chan
Luke warm people are continually concerned with playing it safe they are slaves to the god of control. This focus on safe living keeps them from sacrificing and risking for God.
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
He wants all or nothing. The thought of a person calling himself a 'Christian' without being a devoted follower of Christ is absurd.
Francis Chan
When we become overly concerned about our appearance, our spiritual reputation, our coolness, and our acceptance, we are living as citizens of this world rather than as ambassadors.
Francis Chan
A person who is obsessed with Jesus knows that the sin of pride is always a battle. Obsessed people know that you can never be humble enough, and so they seek to make themselves less known and Christ more known (Mt 5:16).
Francis Chan
My only prayer for my time with you is, God I just want these men and women to long for you.
Francis Chan
The message of the Bible is not about God in Heaven who wants to take from you. It's about God who wants to give to you.
Francis Chan
Sometimes we shrink from leadership because our pride makes us afraid of failure. That's not humility.
Francis Chan
Many Spirit-filled authors have exhausted the thesaurus in order to describe God with the glory He deserves. His perfect holiness, by definition, assures us that our words can't contain Him. Isn't it a comfort to worship a God we cannot exaggerate?
Francis Chan
Are we in love with God or just His stuff?
Francis Chan
Grace is when you should be totally punished but are blessed for no reason.
Francis Chan
Jesus' call to commitment is clear: He wants all or nothing.
Francis Chan
Has your relationship with God changed the way you live your life?
Francis Chan
...there is still a need for those of us nestled deep within the Christian bubble to look beyond the status quo and critically assess the degree to which we are really living biblically.
Francis Chan
God is the only being who is good, and the standards are set by Him. Because God hates sin, He has to punish those guilty of sin. Maybe that's not an appealing standard. But to put it bluntly, when you get your own universe, you can make your own standards.
Francis Chan
