FRANCIS CHANLukewarm people call ‘radical’ what Jesus expected of all His followers.
FRANCIS CHANGod doesn’t call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him.
FRANCIS CHANThe God who loans you life sees your every move, hears each word you speak, knows your every thought. You are seen by God. Noticed. Known.

FRANCIS CHANHe wants all or nothing. The thought of a person calling himself a ‘Christian’ without being a devoted follower of Christ is absurd.
FRANCIS CHANOur lack of intimacy is due to our refusal to unplug and shut off communication from all others so we can be alone with Him.
