Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000030774
The God of the Bible is not an ambulance driver who shows up after the wreck and hops out and thinks, Okay, let's do some triage here. The God of the Bible does not show up after the accident and try to fix it. That's not what He does. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000031904
I've discovered most Christians don't know what to do with difficult situations because they have bought into the lie that God owes us (for our good behaviour). The reality of life is that if you live long enough you are going to bleed, cry and hurt. AND God is still God IN that. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000033575
The reason Christians get married "before the church" is not to give a religious appearance to the ceremony but because Christians hold the marriage covenant in the context of the community of the body of Christ. Seeking the support and counsel of family is an extension of this. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000033625
We've been given the covenant community because we need each other, and together we'll be more mature, experience more life, and know more joy than we ever would apart from one another. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000034805

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000035866

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000103018

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000105467
If you add to or subtract from the cross, even if it is to factor in biblically mandated religious practices like prayer and evangelism, you rob God of His glory and Christ of His sufficiency. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000105477
We are supernaturalists first, not naturalists. The only reason we feel compelled to accommodate science is that science says we ought to. But it is science that should accommodate revelation. Revelation has been around much longer. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000107242
Faith doesn't mean an absence of fear. It means facing fear and trusting that God's goodness is greater. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000109220
But let's be honest. Real good can come from never missing Sunday-morning worship. Real good comes from guarding what you watch. Good can come from guarding your life in these ways. But as a means to or measure of our righteousness? These things will always fall short. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000124154
Remember, marriage is not a contractual arrangement. True love doesn't say, "Make me feel this way if you want me to stay." That's not love. Instead, true love says in commitment, "I'm giving myself to you regardless. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000125579
So quit looking for 'the one'. You have a better chance of finding an Oompa Loompa riding a unicorn, fighting Bigfoot. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000131727
Because a God who is ultimately most focused on his own glory will be about the business of restoring us, who are all broken images of him. His glory demands it. So we should be thankful for a self-sufficient God whose self-regard is glorious. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000136466
He can heal me. I believe He will. I believe I'm going to be an old surely Baptist preacher. And even if He doesn't ... that's the thing: I've read Philippians 1. I know what Paul says. I'm here let's work, if I go home? That's better. I understand that. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000137406
PURSUING CHRIST You and I as Christians -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000146472
There's a strong victim mentality in my generation. I think it's spiritual laziness. They will agree that God is sovereign over all, but then they will say, "Well, I wish he would sovereignly take away my lust issue." There's just not a lot of fortitude, not a lot of fight in them. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000150268
If you're a beast in the pulpit but a coward in your neighborhood, something has gone wrong. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000185944
Most people are pleasant when the world is going the way they want. But a person's character can be seen most clearly when the brokenness of the world has invaded his or her peace, when the way he or she thinks things ought to be is interrupted, disrupted, and dismantled. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000198514
You will find, if you seriously study Scripture, that outside of the idea of hell, there is no more terrifying idea in the Bible than God setting you free to run in the imagination of your heart. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000198562
If you struggle with being able to run hard after the Lord because you feel so unworthy, so unclean, so unsteady, listen up: "While [you] were still weak, at the right time," God came to your rescue. And still does. And still is. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000201044
"Being a good steward" and "placing your hope in" is not the same thing. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000202456
As men and women get older, they get crustier and not more fun. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000209780
Because marriage is meant to reflect the great sacrificial and sanctifying love Christ has for his church, it makes sense to connect your married life to a local Christian congregation. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000216776
When everything considered valuable in life is seen to be nothing in comparison to the glory of Christ, you learn rather well that Christ alone is worth living for. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000219867
Our ferocious commitment to our children's safety and success, along with our genuine love, drives us to endure the often unhappy experience of disciplining our children. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000226660

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000228201

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000252509
Brothers, do not be children in your thinking. Be infants in evil, but in your thinking be mature. (1 Cor. 14:20) -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000254983
Children are perceptive, and if they see leaders and parents talk with boredom and apathy about faith yet become overtly passionate about sports teams or shopping malls, they will think the sport or the mall is more attractive than Jesus. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000255724
God's people are the stage upon which His forgiveness becomes visible. They are never more authentic than when they ask for forgiveness and forgive others. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000266329
It is so easy for the proud to get lost in the imagination of their hearts. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000269438
Fearless faith results from holding on to Christ as our treasure. Gospel courage comes from gospel preciousness. If we truly believed that our reward in heaven far surpasses all the comfort and convenience and collections of the world, we, too, would be willing to consider them all as loss. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000269955
Worship always suffers when man is exalted and God is belittled. If you remove the fact that you're a sinner, if you elevate yourself to a more righteously entitled place, if you exalt yourself and think, "I'm not really all that bad; I'm kind of a good person," then your worship is going to suffer. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000281681
God is at work in the mess. That's the message of the Bible. That's why the Bible is not pretty. That's why it's grimy, because God is working in the mess. He's working in the tears. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000283962
When the people in a church dwell together in the unity of the gospel and together pursue the building up of one another in love, they are providing fertile soil for the roots of deep joy. But -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000291685
Grace-driven effort wants to get to the bottom of behavior, not just manage behavior. If you're simply managing behavior but not removing the roots of that behavior, then the weeds simply sprout up in another place. You may mow it down for a season of time only to see it sprout up again. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000303066
People don't like love, they like that flittery flirty feeling. They don't love love - love is sacrificial, love is ferocious, it's not emotive. Our culture doesn't love love, it loves the idea of love. It wants the emotion without paying anything for it. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000305788
The great preacher Dwight Moody once quipped, "Some day you will read in the papers that D. L. Moody, of East Northfield, is dead. Don't you believe a word of it! At that moment I shall be more alive than I am now."1 -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000312959
The wrath of God is inescapably bound up with the love of God. Permissive love which did not act to protect victimized loved ones would inspire no one. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000313876
Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God. (Heb. 6:1) -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000324365
Romance in marriage, for it to be truly a mingling of souls, cannot simply be a mingling of body parts. No, we must acknowledge both the blessing and the danger of beauty. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000328709
If we don't understand the bad news, we will never grasp the good news. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000330657
So, relational evangelism? Go for it, as long as it turns into actual evangelism. You hanging out having a beer with your buddy so he can see that Christians are cool is not what we're called to do. You're eventually going to have to open up your mouth and share the gospel. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000332919
Because children already have a realization of their weakness, is this not the best opportunity to apply the gospel to their hearts? -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000336484
All ministry that is faithful & eventually fruitful finds its roots in the life, death, & resurrection of Jesus Christ. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000344441

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000347940

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000354896

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000361416

In Christ's grace, there is freedom to be honest and transparent. When we embrace that security and freedom, then we end up pointing others to the only Source of healing and forgiveness. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000367056
A lot of times, the reason we struggle to feel and receive the love of God - to see ourselves as His beloved, adopted children - is because we're not pursuing in our everyday lives those things His Word describes as being valuable and significant. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000367550
Find the things that stir your affections for Christ and saturate your life in them. Find the things that rob you of that affection and walk away from them. That's the Christian life as easy as I can explain it for you. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000369979
The general confusion is that our moral behavior is what justifies us before God. Most of us would never say that with our mouths but we feel that lie in our heart and believe it in our minds. You can be morally upright and not be a worshipper of Christ at all. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000379998
Worship is the way of life for those entranced by and passionate for the glory of God. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000384806

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000391786

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000395933

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000413746

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000418075
As we continue to look for "developmental deficiencies" in our maturation in Christ, how are you doing in the area of contentment? How quick is your impulse to find satisfaction in Christ, to go to the joy of the gospel in times of stress, frustration, disappointment, and trouble? -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000418657
The promise of sanctification is able to turn what may feel like a test today, like a trial by fire - like way more temptation or trouble than we can handle - into a muscle-building exercise that strengthens our spiritual core. -- Matt Chandler

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000423526

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000427039

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000430810
We have to feel the weight of God's severity, because without feeling the weight of his severity, we won't know the weight of his kindness, and we won't be able to worship him and him alone. Worship of him is why we were created. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000435955
We think to question God when bridges fall but not to wonder at his grace that every bridge does not. Every fit of laughter, every delectable morsel of food, and every single smile is the result of his mercy and grace; he owes us none of it. Now let me tell you why this is so terrifying. If -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000436589
Grace does not make sin safe. Grace does make sinners safe. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000448644
In too many marriage conflicts, we work too hard at winning the argument and too little at winning the heart. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000448793

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000461019
The engine that drives all your activities is hope. What you hope in shapes you. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000472621

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000480072
Privileged people can fall into the trap of universalizing experiences and laying them across other people's experiences as an interpretive lens. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000481692

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000510228
The spiritual power in the gospel is denied when we augment or adjusting gospel into no gospel at all. When we doubt the message alone is the power of God for salvation we start adding or subtracting, trusting our own powers of persuasion or presentation. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000517722
What stirs up in my heart is, 'Oh would we see an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.' -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000519201

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000526008
When we learn to respond to each other rather than react, we will move much more quickly in our conflict toward resolution and reconciliation. Reactions only stoke the fires of conflict; responses, particularly godly ones, help us snuff out the conflict. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000529857
God is awesome; he doesn't need you to be awesome. He wants you to be obedient. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000530157

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000544061
Jesus is the culmination of the greatness and the goodness of God. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000548808
If we confuse the gospel with response to the gospel, we will drift from what keeps the gospel on the ground, what makes it clear and personal, and the next thing you know, we will be doing
a bunch of different things that actually obscure the gospel, not reveal it. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000551186
The heart of our problem is the problem of our hearts. -- Matt Chandler

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000557762

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000663714

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000712466
Sin is the native language in every ZIP code. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000719315
If you just know God, have a sense of His depth of love and abundance of grace all for you in Christ, you'll consequently find wealth appropriately unimpressive and suffering appropriately untroubling. This -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000719334
Until Christ is our treasure, any other motivation we have to suffer for him is a fool's errand. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000732584
The Imperfect Pastor by Zack Eswine might be the most helpful and profound book I've read in years. If you're in pastoral ministry grab a copy. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000748195
The great message that we call the gospel begins, then, not with us, or our need, or even the meeting of that need, but with the writer of the news and the sender of its heralds: God himself. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000748360
We see in the backstory of Acts 16 the beautiful reconciliation that the gospel achieves, not just of unholy individuals to a holy God but superficially incompatible people to each other! Jesus takes strangers and makes them a family. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000753900

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000765210
If the gospel of Jesus Christ is not at the center of a wedding ceremony, it is likely not going to be at the center of the marriage. This would be a grave mistake, however, as marriage itself is designed to be a great reflector of that gospel. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000768127
There is no error, no addiction with more power than the Cross of Christ. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000769763

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000774485
I'm wise to be a good steward, but I'll never be my own rescuer. The worth thing you can do with fear and anxiety is to pretend you're too strong to have them. The best thing you can do is just to let Him be in charge of them -- Matt Chandler

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000783680

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000784299
If you want to grow in true wisdom, grow in a knowledge of the God of the Bible. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000786110

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000834979

Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000854016
He later came to love. Then God hijacked his life. The zealous Pharisee became the apostle with the gospeled heart. So of course he would say, "To live is Christ." In the logic of the gospel, there are no alternatives to Christ. Every other -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000854409
You have no shot at experiencing real change in life if you're habitually protecting your image, hyping your spiritual brand, and putting out the vibe that you're a lot more unfazed by temptation than the reality you know and live would suggest. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000855778
But there is a beauty even in loving without response because that kind of love is truly selfless. When we love with no expectation or promise of reciprocity, we know what it means to sacrifice and deny ourselves in ways we wouldn't otherwise. -- Matt Chandler
Matt Chandler Quotes : pic 000856977
