More quotes by 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
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
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
Heaven is not a place for those who are afraid of hell it’s a place for those who love God.
Matt Chandler
Men of God are those who walk in the fear of the Lord.
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
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.

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
Faith doesn’t mean an absence of fear. It means facing fear and trusting that God’s goodness is greater.
Matt Chandler
There isn’t a violent soul on the planet that God might not save and transform for himself.
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
Stop going to church everywhere and start belonging to church somewhere.
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
I've discovered most Christians don't know what to do with difficult situations because they have bought into the lie that God owes us (for our good behaviour). The reality of life is that if you live long enough you are going to bleed, cry and hurt. AND God is still God IN that.
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
We carry an insidious prosperity gospel around in our dark, little, entitled hearts.
Matt Chandler
Our senses are never more awakened to our need for His love than when our need is most exposed.
Matt Chandler
Jesus doesn't need you to make him palatable...he needs you to be faithful.
Matt Chandler
God is awesome he doesn’t need you to be awesome. He wants you to be obedient.
