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.

More quotes by Francis Chan
When the church really takes on the humble characteristics of Christ, that's going to lead to revival.
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.
Francis Chan
Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don't really matter.
Francis Chan
Yes, it is God who works in you. And, yes, there is work for you to do. Yes, the Spirit empowers you to do the work. And, yes, you do the work.
Francis Chan
God never breaks His promises.
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
God's definition of what matters is pretty straightforward. He measures our lives by how we love.
Francis Chan
Why would we need to experience the Comforter if our lives are already comfortable?
Francis Chan
You find that the things you let go of while following Jesus were the things that were going to destroy you in the end.
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
Has your relationship with God changed the way you live your life?
Francis Chan
We have got to make disciples. Fun nights and pizza nights are not going to sustain us.
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
When it's hard and you are doubtful, give more.
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
Churches we build only by our own efforts and not in the strength of the Spirit will quickly collapse when we don't push and prod people along.
Francis Chan
Due to our consumer mindset, people are prone to jump from church to church, which weakens the church overall.
Francis Chan
...you will have a choice: to adjust how you live daily or to stay the same.
Francis Chan
Not being able to understand God is frustrating, but it is ridiculous for us to think we have the right to limit God to something we are capable to comprehending.
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?
Francis Chan
