Francis Chan Quotes

"Most of us use “I'm waiting for God to reveal His calling on my life” as a means of avoiding action.""God didn’t just give a little for us; He gave His best.""The way we live has ramifications beyond our personal lives.""Joy comes as we follow Him, not just as we consider Him.""We need to stop giving people excuses not to believe in God.""Don't fall into the trap of studying the Bible without doing what it says.""God’s mercy is a fresh sunrise every morning.""When it's hard and you are doubtful, give more.""God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him""What are you doing right now that requires faith?""Do not assume you are good soil.""It's not scientific doubt, not atheism, not pantheism, not agnosticism that in our day and in this land is likely to quench the light of the Gospel. It is a proud sensuous selfish luxurious church-going hollow-hearted prosperity.""It’s easy to become disillusioned with church and religion. People get hurt and disappointed preachers sin and overlook hurting people and sound theology sometimes cowers to fears and selfish ambition. But at the core if you love Jesus you will love people.""The point of your life is to point to Him.""Are you willing to say to God that He can have whatever He wants? Do you believe that wholehearted commitment to Him is more important than any other thing or person in your life?""If life is a river, then pursuing Christ requires swimming upstream.""People who are obsessed with Jesus aren't consumed with their personal safety and comfort above all else.""Jesus' call to commitment is clear: He wants all or nothing.""But God doesn't call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him so completely that we are unafraid to put ourselves in situations where we will be in trouble if He doesn't come through.""The truth is there is a world of difference between knowing something intellectually and knowing it by means of experiencing it."
