“Christians are like manure: spread them out and they help everything grow better, but keep them in one big pile and they stink horribly.”
― Francis Chan

“True faith means holding nothing back. It means putting every hope in God's fidelity to His Promises.”
― Francis Chan, Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God

“The point of your life is to point to Him. Whatever you are doing, God wants to be glorified, because this whole thing is His.”
― Francis Chan, Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God

“The search for a "suitable" church makes the man a critic where God wants him to be a pupil. What he wants from the layman in church is an attitude which may, indeed, be critical in the sense of rejecting what is false or unhelpful but which is wholly uncritical in the sense that it does not appraise- does not waste time in thinking about what it rejects, but lays itself open in uncommenting, humble receptivity to any nourishment that is going.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters
