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.

More quotes by 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
The single most loving act we can do is share the good news of Jesus Christ, that God saves sinners.
Matt Chandler
What stirs up in my heart is, 'Oh would we see an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.'
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
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
In 10,000 years you will not regret anything you didn’t have or do in this life.
Matt Chandler
The general confusion is that our moral behavior is what justifies us before God. Most of us would never say that with our mouths but we feel that lie in our heart and believe it in our minds. You can be morally upright and not be a worshipper of Christ at all.
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
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
The reconciling gospel is always at the forefront of the church’s social action, because a full belly is not better than a reconciled soul.
Matt Chandler
The more you make this world about you, the more miserable you will be.
Matt Chandler
God doesn't NEED raw material. He MAKES material.
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
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
Comfort is the god of our generation, so suffering is seen as a problem to be solved, and not a providence from God.
Matt Chandler
Stop going to church everywhere and start belonging to church somewhere.
Matt Chandler
I believe the sovereign God of the universe justifies us freely, and then we are called to run with him in sanctification.
Matt Chandler
We can never grasp the extent of our depravity until we recognize the excellencies of our created dignity
Matt Chandler
Every missionary I know is extraordinarily ordinary. Everything they do, they do by the grace of God.
Matt Chandler
Grace-driven effort wants to get to the bottom of behavior, not just manage behavior. If you're simply managing behavior but not removing the roots of that behavior, then the weeds simply sprout up in another place.
