Letters to the Church

by Francis Chan

Rather than assuming you are staying until you hear a word from God, it seems more biblical to assume you are going unless you believe God called you to stay.

It is when we love those who slander us that we demonstrate the love of Christ (Matt. 5:44–45).

Just because something is said with the wrong attitude doesn’t mean it’s wrong information.

if you have even an ounce of humility, it is only by of the grace of God. He blessed you with it.

We can cause real damage to our churches when we want our feelings validated more than we want His Bride elevated.

Let’s love people enough to help them leave their own pity parties so they can spend their lives drawing attention to God rather than themselves.

How on earth does an almighty Creator allow His creation to torture Him? Even as I write this, I am marveling again at His humility. Instead of beating myself up for my lack of humility, I praise Jesus for His.
