Truly, God's plan of redemption is about more than me and you and our neighbor down the street. It's about men and women from every tribe, tongue, and nation on earth becoming a part of His covenant community.

More quotes by Matt Chandler
Church of Jesus, let us please be men and women who understand the difference between moralism and the gospel of Jesus Christ. Let’s be careful to preach the dos and don’ts of Scripture in the shadow of the cross’s ‘Done!’
Matt Chandler
I preach hard against that idea and plead with people to make war against sin. I tell them it's not going to be easy. Some people are meant to wrestle with their sin a long time before God brings them to freedom, but let's wrestle. Let's fight. Let's do something besides just complain.
Matt Chandler
Trying to make the Gospel relevant is like trying to make water wet.
Matt Chandler
The context of the gospel message is not our benefit or our salvation the context of the gospel is the supremacy of Christ and the glory of God.
Matt Chandler
The spiritual power in the gospel is denied when we augment or adjusting gospel into no gospel at all. When we doubt the message alone is the power of God for salvation we start adding or subtracting, trusting our own powers of persuasion or presentation.
Matt Chandler
If you add to or subtract from the cross, even if it is to factor in biblically mandated religious practices like prayer and evangelism, you rob God of His glory and Christ of His sufficiency.
Matt Chandler
All ministry that is faithful & eventually fruitful finds its roots in the life, death, & resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Matt Chandler
In 10,000 years you will not regret anything you didn’t have or do in this life.
Matt Chandler
I'm wise to be a good steward, but I'll never be my own rescuer. The worth thing you can do with fear and anxiety is to pretend you're too strong to have them. The best thing you can do is just to let Him be in charge of them
Matt Chandler
You're exhausted in the faith because you're looking at you. The more you look at yourself and the less you look at God, the more you get frustrated at yourself.
Matt Chandler
God doesn't NEED raw material. He MAKES material.
Matt Chandler
God is awesome he doesn’t need you to be awesome. He wants you to be obedient.
Matt Chandler
I have always deeply desired to be an honest man who said it when I struggled, stumbled and worried. I longed to be a man with real friends - friends who knew me at my worst and loved me.
Matt Chandler
So relational evangelism? Go for it, as long as it turns into real evangelism. You hanging out having a beer with your buddy so he can see that Christians are cool is not what we’re called to do. You’re eventually going to have to open up your mouth and share the gospel. When the pure gospel is shared, people respond.
Matt Chandler
My sin in the past: forgiven. My current struggles: covered. My future failures: paid in full all by the marvelous, infinite, matchless grace found in the atoning work of the cross of Jesus Christ.
Matt Chandler
I'm accepted by God and it has nothing to do with me.
Matt Chandler
The cross of Christ is the response of God to men for belittling His name.
Matt Chandler
The single most loving act we can do is share the good news of Jesus Christ, that God saves sinners.
Matt Chandler
In essence, we are reconciled to reconcile.
Matt Chandler
The great message that we call the gospel begins, then, not with us, or our need, or even the meeting of that need, but with the writer of the news and the sender of its heralds: God himself.
