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.

More quotes by Francis Chan
Don’t believe something just because you want to, and don’t embrace an idea just because you’ve always believed it. Believe what is biblical. Test all your assumptions against the precious words God gave us in the Bible.
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
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
My biggest concern for this generation is your inability to focus, especially in prayer.
Francis Chan
The world needs Christians who don't tolerate the complacency of their own lives.
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
God doesn’t call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him.
Francis Chan
With my natural communication abilities, I could probably gather a crowd even without the Spirit.
Francis Chan
The greatest knowledge we can ever have is knowing God treasures us.
Francis Chan
James 2:19- 'You believe there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that- and shudder.' God doesn't just want us to have good theology He wants us to know and love Him.
Francis Chan
As a culture, were so worried about whats going to happen to us 30 years from now that we are not taking care of our brothers and sisters who need help today.
Francis Chan
Are we in love with God or just His stuff?
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
God wants to change us so much that it intrigues others.
Francis Chan
There are periods that we forget that in the pursuit of fruit, that if we just abide in Him, then fruitfulness is a guarantee.
Francis Chan
Don't fall into the trap of studying the Bible without doing what it says.
Francis Chan
I want to train my kids so where they are the only believers they can stand on their own two feet and teach others.
Francis Chan
It's a pretty crazy task to try to describe God quickly. Everything starts with a healthy fear of Him.
Francis Chan
Where it gets weird is that nowadays there are millions of people on this earth who call themselves followers of Jesus, but their lives look nothing like His, and they're not obeying the things that He called them to do.
Francis Chan
If life is a river, then pursuing Christ requires swimming upstream. When we stop swimming, or actively following Him, we automatically begin to be swept downstream.
