What Are You Hiding? | Francis Chan

In this deeply honest and raw message, Francis Chan shares from a place of personal repentance. Recently stepping away from his long-term role in ministry, he reflects on a season of distraction and spiritual dullness, confessing that he had started loving other things more than Christ—not sinful things, but lesser things that still pulled his heart away from Jesus.

Grounding his reflections in Philippians 3, he emphasizes Paul's radical passion for Christ—counting everything else as loss compared to knowing Him. Francis challenges the church to examine their own hearts: Do we love Jesus or just the things He gives?

The Revenge of God | Francis Chan

In this powerful and sobering episode, Francis Chan dives into one of the most often overlooked aspects of God’s character—His wrath. Teaching from the Book of Revelation, Francis reminds listeners that the justice and vengeance of God are not blemishes to be hidden but perfections to be praised. He calls the Church to a deeper reverence for Scripture, urging believers to embrace all of who God is, not just the parts that feel comfortable.

Francis challenges the cultural drift toward a sanitized, palatable version of God—one that never confronts or offends—and warns that when we reshape God's character to fit our preferences, we cease to worship the true God.

This episode is a call to humility before God’s Word—a reminder that even when we don’t fully understand His ways, He remains perfectly holy, righteous, and good. True worship begins when we stop trying to tame God and instead stand in awe of Him.

What Do You Treasure? (Pt. 2) | Francis Chan

What are you really living for? Everyone is building treasure somewhere, but only one treasure lasts forever. In this episode, Francis Chan helps us refocus our hearts on the kingdom of heaven. He shares powerful stories of sacrifice, surprising joy, and practical ways to invest in what truly matters. It's not about what must be given up—it’s about discovering what’s infinitely better.

What Do You Treasure? (Pt. 1) | Francis Chan

What does it really look like to die to yourself? It’s a phrase often heard in church but rarely lived out in radical, visible ways. In this episode, Francis Chan confronts the quiet drift happening in the Church—where believers try to hold on to their lives while adding Jesus on top. Through Scripture and the powerful story of a village in China that chose selfless love over personal comfort, Francis invites us to wrestle with the truth: following Jesus isn’t about adding Him to our plans—it’s about letting go completely.

Prayer, Power, and the Promises of Christ | Francis Chan

Jesus said we would do greater works than He did… but what does that actually mean? Is that really possible? Have we settled for something less than what Jesus intended? In this message, Francis Chan wrestles with Jesus’ bold promise—unpacking what it means to believe for more, to pray with expectation, and to step into the supernatural life God designed for His church.

Embrace Suffering | Francis Chan

So often, we’re told that following Jesus will make life easier… but what if that’s not what Jesus said at all? In this message, Francis Chan walks us through what the Bible clearly teaches about suffering. Jesus taught us to expect it, to embrace it, and to arm ourselves with the mindset that following Him will not be easy. He’ll show us that overcoming sin requires suffering, that living for the will of God means leaving our old lives behind, and that real love is expressed in serving others, not in being served.

This Is What We’re Made For | Francis Chan

In a world obsessed with constant connection, why do we feel so alone? In today’s episode, Francis paints a picture of the kind of relationships we were created for: deep, embodied, Spirit-filled connection with one another and with God. He’ll unpack why this kind of community is so rare today... and what it will take for the Church to become what it was always meant to be.

I Will Fear No Evil | Francis Chan

What if we’ve been playing it safe for so long, we’ve forgotten what it means to really trust God?

In this classic teaching, Francis Chan opens up about fear, faith, and the kind of boldness that defined the early church. From the valley of the shadow of death to the comfort of our Shepherd’s rod and staff, this isn’t a call to recklessness—it's a return to childlike faith.

Don't Give Up! | Francis Chan

You ever feel like you’re doing all the right things… but nothing seems to change? Like following Jesus is just harder than you thought it’d be? In this classic teaching, Francis takes us deep into the fight we all face—the struggle to stay faithful when no one’s watching. He takes us into Galatians 6, where we’re reminded: Don’t give up. Because God sees it all… and the harvest is coming.

Prayer That God Hears | Francis Chan

What if I told you… God doesn’t hear all prayers? You’ve probably been told your whole life that He does — no matter what, no matter how. But Scripture says otherwise. Today, Francis Chan flips the script on casual prayer and exposes the one thing that made even Jesus' prayers powerful: the fear and reverence of God.
