It's easy to let the newest thing become the biggest thing. A fresh argument, a new controversy, a detail we feel certain about - these tend to take up the most room in our minds, while the things that matter most quietly move to the background. In this Staff Talk, Rob Zabala shares about a neighbor in need and the moment he felt like he was looking at Chris...
Following Jesus has never been about doing whatever feels right. Today, Francis looks at the striking difference between Joshua and Judges. One shows a people moving together in faith. The other shows what happens when everyone does what is right in their own eyes. In a culture that celebrates independence and speaking your mind, it can be easy to confuse co...
It's never been easier to do ministry alone. With AI, social media, and endless platforms, we can build an audience without ever building the Body. But that's not the vision we find in Scripture. In this Staff Talk, Francis reflects on the growing pull toward independence and why followers of Jesus are called to something far more difficult: depending on one...
Jesus never invited people to become more religious. He invited them to be born again. In this message from THE SEND Philippines, Francis Chan teaches from Ephesians 2 and shows that the heart of the gospel isn't self-improvement, it's new life. Because God is rich in mercy, He doesn't simply forgive our sin. He makes us alive through Christ, fills us with H...
Many of us spend our lives asking God to bless what we're doing, when the greater invitation is to discover what He's already doing and join Him there. In this Staff Talk, Francis shares why following Jesus is about more than serving faithfully. It's about learning to recognize when His Spirit is leading the way. As he reflects on recent ministry experiences...
In a culture that constantly demands something bigger, louder, and more entertaining, it's easy to lose sight of what truly transforms us. In this message, Francis Chan challenges the modern Church to examine what has captured our attention and affection. He reminds us that God's Word was never meant to compete with personalities, production, or emotion. The...
Many of us know what it's like to feel deeply convicted by God's Word, only to find that conviction fading as life moves on. Instead of responding with obedience, we can become stuck in a cycle of overthinking, waiting for perfect clarity, or convincing ourselves that another day will be a better time to act. In this message, Francis Chan challenges us to re...
God desires to hear our prayers, but Scripture also warns that there are things that can stand in the way. In this message, Francis challenges us to examine our view of God's holiness and the condition of our own hearts. As he walks through Scripture, we're reminded that prayer isn't just about asking God for what we need or want. It's about coming before Hi...
Do you truly believe that Jesus is with you? In this message, Francis Chan challenges us to examine whether we're living from the reality of Christ's presence or relying on our own strength. As he reflects on Jesus' promise to always be with us, Francis reminds us that our ministry to others was never meant to be fueled by eloquence, talent, or self-confiden...
Life has a way of pulling our attention in a thousand different directions. Personal struggles, cultural tensions, financial pressures, and uncertainty about the future can leave us feeling anxious and overwhelmed. In this message, Francis Chan encourages us to step back and remember the bigger story. Walking through Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, he...
