Is Jesus Your Lord? | Francis Chan

In the New Testament, Jesus is referred to as “Lord” over 700 times. But even though that term is used so frequently in scripture, do we truly understand the impact of that name? In today’s episode, Francis explains the foundational reality of what it means for Jesus to truly be our Lord – and why we should want Him to be our King.

Sharing the Oneness of God (Part 2)| Francis Chan

Have you ever noticed how empty the messages of the world are? In contrast, as God’s ambassadors, we are called to fill the earth with His eternal message of life and hope. In this second half of Francis and David Platt’s shared session at Biola’s 2023 Missions Conference, Francis and David build on the theme of unity by exhorting us towards what should unify believers: an unwavering, unashamed commitment to the Word upheld by God’s people since ancient times, spoken by God Himself.

Sharing the Oneness of God (Part 1) | Francis Chan

There is a direct, crucial connection between unity in the Body of Christ and the spread of the Gospel in the world. In this first part of a shared session at Biola’s yearly Missions Conference, Francis teams up with David Platt to unpack the mind-blowing invitation of God from the Gospel of John: to enter the oneness Jesus shares with the Father, and then share that unity with one another, so that the world may believe.

Loving God For All He Is | Francis Chan

When you pray, how do you address God? Do you really take the time to let who He is to you sink into the core of your being? In today’s episode, Francis walks us through meditating on what it means to really approach God as our Creator, our Father, and our Bridegroom. In this message, there will be a few times when Francis stops to give time to pray and address God as who He is. We encourage you to pause the episode at those points and take the time to really go before the Lord and be blown away by who He is to you.

The Purity of the Church | Francis Chan

Many Christians put a high priority on the church believing and teaching the Word of God – but can we really claim to be standing for the truth without confronting sin? In this message from his time at Cornerstone Church, Francis calls believers to both hold up and live out the truth of God’s Word and lovingly stand for the purity of the Body of Christ.

Faith, Scripture, and the Pursuit of Christ | Francis Chan

Does it ever seem like the older you get, the less faith you have? We start our walk with the Lord with such a childlike excitement, but it sadly can change over time. In this week’s message, Francis challenges us to believe in a God that – even today – reveals Himself to His creation. We pray that this message stirs your faith and builds an expectation of the supernatural.

The Seed of the Gospel | Francis Chan

Welcome to the Crazy Love Podcast. As each day passes, it can feel like time is slipping away faster than ever before. It's easy to get caught up in the busyness of life and lose sight of what’s most important. None of us know how much time we have left. In this week's episode, Francis brings us through several parables and reminds us that there is no better time than now to start walking with Jesus. We hope this episode will inspire and encourage you, giving you a renewed understanding of the incredible worth of Jesus.

The Immeasurable Love of God | Francis Chan

You probably know that God loves you – but do you really, deeply believe that He loves you? In this teaching, Francis opens up about a way that his perspective on God’s love often gets twisted, and invites us to trust in the Love that is so infinitely beyond our own.

The Mission of Marriage | Francis and Lisa Chan

In all of human relationships, marriage is the one expression that God wants to be a picture of Christ and the Church. That’s a high calling! In today’s episode, Francis and Lisa Chan share some of the lessons that they've learned about their marriage at the Antioch Marriage Conference. We pray that this message encourages you and helps you to see your marriage through the lens of the mission and Kingdom of God.

The Throne of Grace | Francis Chan

When we focus on only one aspect of who God is, we get dangerously close to heresy by having a lopsided view of Him. In today’s episode, Francis highlights an attribute of God he feels he’s neglected his whole life, and invites us to join him in drawing near to an incredible reality: God’s throne of grace.
