More quotes by Matt Chandler
If we confuse the gospel with response to the gospel, we will drift from what keeps the gospel on the ground, what makes it clear and personal, and the next thing you know, we will be doing a bunch of different things that actually obscure the gospel, not reveal it.
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
We carry an insidious prosperity gospel around in our dark, little, entitled hearts.
Matt Chandler
There isn’t a violent soul on the planet that God might not save and transform for himself.
Matt Chandler
Every missionary I know is extraordinarily ordinary. Everything they do, they do by the grace of God.
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
Where your delight is, the rest of your world is going to follow.
Matt Chandler
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.
Matt Chandler
In essence, we are reconciled to reconcile.
Matt Chandler
When we see the bankruptcy, slavery, and vanity of everything else, we can finally say, ‘To die is gain.’
Matt Chandler
All ministry that is faithful & eventually fruitful finds its roots in the life, death, & resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Matt Chandler
Find the things that stir your affections for Christ and saturate your life in them. Find the things that rob you of that affection and walk away from them. That's the Christian life as easy as I can explain it for you.
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
Apart from worshiping God, everything becomes superficial. But when you understand the driving force behind everything, all of a sudden there's an eternal amount of joy at our disposal, because everything we do is enlightened and enlivened by the endless glory of the eternal God.
Matt Chandler
Heaven is not a place for those who are afraid of hell it’s a place for those who love God.
Matt Chandler
Many of the things that stifle growth are morally neutral. They're not bad things. Facebook is not bad. Television and movies are not bad. I enjoy TV, but it doesn't take long for me to begin to find humorous on TV what the Lord finds heartbreaking.
Matt Chandler
Stop going to church everywhere and start belonging to church somewhere.
Matt Chandler
God is awesome he doesn’t need you to be awesome. He wants you to be obedient.
Matt Chandler
More often than not, we want him to have fairy wings and spread fairy dust and shine like a precious little star, dispensing nothing but good times on everyone, like some kind of hybrid of Tinker Bell and Aladdin’s Genie. But the God of the Bible, this God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, is a pillar of fire and a column of smoke.
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.
