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
We’ve been given the covenant community because we need each other, and together we’ll be more mature, experience more life, and know more joy than we ever would apart from one another.
Matt Chandler
The cross of Christ is the response of God to men for belittling His name.
Matt Chandler
It's OK to not be OK - just don't stay there.
Matt Chandler
God doesn't NEED raw material. He MAKES material.
Matt Chandler
Jesus doesn't avoid those who mess up. Jesus runs to those who mess up.
Matt Chandler
Every missionary I know is extraordinarily ordinary. Everything they do, they do by the grace of God.
Matt Chandler
This avoidance of the difficult things of Scripture — of sinfulness and hell and God’s notable severity — is idolatrous and cowardly. If a man or a woman who teaches the Scriptures is afraid to explain to you the severity of God, they have betrayed you, and they love their ego more than they love you.
Matt Chandler
Everybody knows something's broken in the world. But illogically, foolishly, we are looking for fixes from broken people with broken ideas in broken places.
Matt Chandler
Because a God who is ultimately most focused on his own glory will be about the business of restoring us, who are all broken images of him. His glory demands it. So we should be thankful for a self-sufficient God whose self-regard is glorious.
Matt Chandler
The reality is that all God has to do is reveal himself to you,and you'll gladly join the mission in service to his kingdom. He doesn't force the issue he just has to reveal himself as is: mighty,wondrous, gracious, loving, and radically saving. No man goes back to saltine crackers when he's had fillet mignon.
Matt Chandler
God is more interested in declaring than explaining.
Matt Chandler
What drives me mad in evangelical circles, including some young Reformed circles, is that there is often a sit-on-the-couch-and-wait-for-God-to-do-something mentality that is unbiblical and wicked. It's probably been true of every generation, but I can see it most clearly in the younger crowd. There seems to be so little war when it comes to sin.
Matt Chandler
If we could understand how impossible our situation is, we would grow in reverence for the kingship of Christ.
Matt Chandler
There isn’t a violent soul on the planet that God might not save and transform for himself.
Matt Chandler
We carry an insidious prosperity gospel around in our dark, little, entitled hearts.
Matt Chandler
While the good news of the gospel may not appeal to everyone, the bad news of the gospel still applies to everyone.
Matt Chandler
I don't believe in the end that God gave me cancer, but He certainly could have stopped it and didn't.
Matt Chandler
Could it not be, that God loves me too deeply, by having people challenge me so that I know I'm not perfect.
Matt Chandler
When God saves you, he doesn’t do it because you gave him permission. He did it because he’s God.
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.
