Crazy Love Podcast

Have you ever let your mind be blown by the fact that God is in pursuit of you? In this second part of his Galatians series, Francis unpacks the story of God’s pursuit of the apostle Paul, and the same unbelievable grace that sets us apart from birth and pursues us today.

Is the Christian life all about the things we have to do? Or about what we get to do by God's grace? In this classic teaching, Francis Chan kicks off a series on Galatians exposing the arrogance of thinking we can work our way to God. Most of all, he calls us back to the core of the Gospel message: it's what God did in His grace, not what we do, that saves us.

Can you imagine anything better than sitting at the feast table in God’s Kingdom one day? Can you imagine anything more important? In this classic message from Cornerstone Church, Francis breaks down the parable of the great feast in Luke 14 and shows us why there is no valid excuse for declining the greatest invitation we could ever receive.

Too many of us feel vaguely guilty for not praying as much as we should – but do we have any idea how insane it is that through Jesus, we can talk to the Creator of the universe at any time? In this classic message, Francis walks us through the simple story of the persistent widow and the wonder of believing that we have God’s ear when we pray.

From our early years, we are shaped by a society and homes that often prioritize separation over togetherness. Sadly, this trend echoes within the Church itself. But in John 17, we encounter a profound prayer from Jesus. In today's episode, Francis Chan reminds us of the necessity for UNITY in today's culture and explores the significance of this prayer, diving into its profound implications for our lives and the Church today.

Have you ever asked yourself, “What is beautiful in God’s eyes?” In today’s episode, Francis and Lisa share about some of their struggles and failures in marriage, the beauty of a gentle and lowly spirit, and an unashamed declaration of what God says about marriage.

For those of us that have been married for a few years, you may have discovered that some marriage issues have nothing to do with your marriage. In today’s teaching, Francis and Lisa Chan share their greatest hope and a key to marriage that’s far more valuable than better communication skills or parenting strategies – it’s seeing God for who He truly is.

When you worship the Lord, how easy is it for you to forget about everyone else in the room and express yourself with all your heart to God without feeling self-conscious? For a lot of us, that can be difficult. In today’s message, Francis describes the depth of love that God has for His children and calls us to a joy that should blow our minds as we go and serve the Lord with gladness.

Do we really believe that God can do anything? Or do we make sure our strategies and resources are lined up just in case we need to fall back on them? In today’s message, Francis takes us through stories about the kings of Israel and Judah, and the power of the church in Acts chapter 2, to confront our hearts with a weighty question: Do we really believe that God will strongly support and do what only He can do through the one who fully trusts in Him?

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.
