More quotes by Francis Chan
God's definition of what matters is pretty straightforward. He measures our lives by how we love.
Francis Chan
Do you love this God who is everything, or do you just love everything He gives you?
Francis Chan
My biggest concern for this generation is your inability to focus, especially in prayer.
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 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.
Francis Chan
Trust whatever He has for you. It will be better than anything you can plan for yourself.
Francis Chan
Due to our consumer mindset, people are prone to jump from church to church, which weakens the church overall.
Francis Chan
The idea of holding back certainly didn't come from Scripture.
Francis Chan
...you will have a choice: to adjust how you live daily or to stay the same.
Francis Chan

Francis Chan
...if God is truly the greatest good on this earth, would He be loving us if He didn't draw us toward what is best for us (even if that happens to be Himself)?
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
It's pride, plain and simple, that keeps me from giving God all the glory and keeping some of it for myself. It is a battle we all fight in some form or another, some of us daily or even hourly.
Francis Chan
I was raised Christian after age 5, but I didn't really understand it until high school. A friend of mine invited me to his youth group. There I heard the gospel, understood it, and accepted it.
Francis Chan
Following Christ isn't something that can be done halfheartedly or on the side. It is not a label we can display when it is useful. It must be central to everything we do and are.
Francis Chan
True faith means holding nothing back it bets everything on the hope of eternity
Francis Chan
Show true religion, cause words don't relieve
Francis Chan
...no worship is better than apathetic worship.
Francis Chan
The best things in life are gifts from the One who steadfastly loves us. But an important question to ask ourselves is this: are we in love with God or just His stuff?
