Killing the “Moses Mentality” | Francis Chan
Monday Aug 25, 2025
Monday Aug 25, 2025
In this powerful message, Francis Chan challenges the modern church’s dependence on celebrity pastors and passive faith. Drawing from Exodus 19, Acts 4, and 2 Peter 1, he calls believers to go beyond relying on others to bring them into God’s presence, emphasizing that every follower of Christ has direct access to Him. Francis exhorts the church to pursue holiness, unity, and courage with urgency, envisioning a gathering where all believers come overflowing from time spent with God rather than arriving empty.

The Key to True Transformation | Francis Chan
Monday Aug 18, 2025
Monday Aug 18, 2025
Why do dogs return to their vomit? Why does a washed pig run back to the mud? Because their nature hasn’t changed. You can clean them up on the outside, but they’re still the same inside.
In this message, Francis Chan reflects on how his encounters in Uganda reshaped his life, family, and ministry. Sharing from personal testimony and Scripture, he warns against the danger of external religion—programs, good sermons, or emotional moments—without true inner transformation. Drawing on passages from 2 Peter, Jeremiah, and Romans, Francis explains that only the Holy Spirit can change our nature: giving us a holy fear of God and pouring His love into our hearts.

You’re Not an Accident | Francis Chan
Tuesday Aug 12, 2025
Tuesday Aug 12, 2025
What if all the insecurity, fear, and comparison have been lies—meant to distract you from something God settled before you were even born?
So many live with a quiet ache, wondering if they really matter—if they’re really made for anything significant. But in Jeremiah 1, God tells us something staggering: ‘Before I formed you, I knew you.’
In this teaching, Francis Chan opens up about his own journey of self-doubt, and the breakthrough that came when he realized he wasn’t an accident. He was made for a purpose—and so are you.

What if you could live without fear—truly fearless, even in the face of death, suffering, or the unknown? What if the hardest truths about your own heart didn’t crush you, but instead became the gateway to joy and courage?
In this teaching, Francis Chan walks through Psalm 23. He unpacks how the Psalm shifts from God as an idea to God as a present Shepherd, and challenges us to live fearless lives rooted in God's sovereignty, goodness, and eternal promises.

The Cost of Following Christ | Francis Chan
Monday Jul 28, 2025
Monday Jul 28, 2025
Have you ever faced a season so painful, so intense, that you wondered if something had gone terribly wrong in your walk with God? What if the very trials we dread are actually signs that we’re right where we’re meant to be?
In this teaching, Francis Chan opens up 1 Peter 4 to show us that suffering for Christ isn’t strange—it’s expected. He explains how trials test and refine our faith, and why the Spirit of God meets us most powerfully not in comfort, but in difficulty.

What Are You Hiding? | Francis Chan
Monday Jul 21, 2025
Monday Jul 21, 2025
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
Monday Jul 14, 2025
Monday Jul 14, 2025
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. 1) | Francis Chan

Monday Jun 30, 2025
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.

Monday Jun 23, 2025
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.
