Crazy Love

Too often, we treat holiness like an obligation—something we have to do instead of something we want to become. But what if we actually desired purity? What if we wanted to be faithful, honest, and righteous—not because we’re supposed to, but because we long to be more like Christ? 
 
This is why we need the Holy Spirit. We can’t force ourselves into holiness. We need Him to change us, to transform our hearts, to keep shaping us into the people God created us to be. 
 
So, are you asking God to fill you with His Spirit so you can become more like Him? Because the kind of person you become at the end of your life is being shaped right now.

Why do I want the holy spirit?

What does it truly mean to follow Jesus? In this teaching, Francis Chan challenges the modern church’s watered-down approach to Christianity. True faith isn’t about simply acknowledging Jesus—it’s about repentance, obedience, and transformation by the Holy Spirit. 
 
Too often, we replace God’s clear commands with comfortable traditions. But Scripture is clear: Repent, be baptized, and be filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38). This message is a wake-up call to examine our lives. Do we truly believe God is great? Do we trust that His way of living is best? Are we willing to surrender everything to follow Him?

Stop Debating, Start Obeying (The Holy Spirit Series, Pt. 3) | Francis Chan

The Holy Spirit cannot be imitated. When He moves, it’s undeniable—leaving people in awe, speechless, and asking, ‘What does this mean?’ The Spirit of God isn’t something we can manufacture; He is real, powerful, and beyond human ability. Have you encountered Him? 
 
Excerpt from “Supernatural or Superficial? (The Holy Spirit Series, Pt. 2)” on the Crazy Love Podcast and YouTube channel.

Beyond Human Ability

Those who are led by the Spirit of God—those are the children of God. The Spirit is not an impersonal force but a person who leads us. Following Christ isn’t about adding a little bit of God to your life on your terms. It’s about surrendering and walking where He leads. Are you following?

Who Are the Children of God?

What if the modern church is missing something so essential that without it, our faith becomes just another human effort? What if the power we read about in Scripture—the kind that heals, transforms, and emboldens—was meant to be normal for every believer? 
 
In this week’s message, Francis Chan confronts a pressing and uncomfortable question: If the Holy Spirit truly lives inside of us, why do so many Christians look no different from the world?

Supernatural or Superficial? (The Holy Spirit Series, Pt. 2)

Jesus didn’t just leave us with words of comfort—He gave us something far greater. He told the disciples, 'I’m going away, but I’m sending another one just like me.' Not just beside you, like they’d experienced for three years, but *inside* of you. Can you even grasp that? The Spirit of the living God, the same power that raised Christ from the dead, is in us right now. How could life stay the same if we actually believed that?

Greater Things Than Jesus?

Life here can feel like a five-star resort, but when your heart longs for Jesus, even the best comforts feel empty. Paul said it best: *‘I just want to be with Him.’* That’s the kind of love we’re praying for—a love so real that nothing else satisfies. In a way it’s like being homesick. We know we’re meant to be with Jesus in the place he’s preparing for us.

Longing for More (The Holy Spirit Series, Pt. 1) | Francis Chan

If you’re struggling right now, please know you are not alone. There’s a voice that can feel so convincing, telling you things will never get better. It might whisper that ending it all is the only way to escape the pain. But understand that voice isn’t the truth. There’s always hope, even when it feels distant. And what seems like an end could lead to something even harder and darker. Please reach out, talk to someone — help is closer than you think.

Help Is Closer Than You Think

Demonic influences might try to distract you, pulling your focus away from the grace of God. But here's the truth: it's not about striving to make God Lord over your life by your own works. It's about Him truly dwelling in you. Just like in the garden with Adam and Eve, God desires a relationship where you walk with Him, where you're not working to earn His love, but enjoying His presence. This is the eternal hope we look forward to—the moment when God will be with us again, walking with us in perfect unity. Let His grace be what leads you.

Trying to ‘Earn’ Heaven?

Ever read the New Testament? Ever wondered what Jesus did everywhere He went? He healed the sick. He cast out demons. And guess what? He wasn’t Catholic or a charismatic. He was Jesus. Our walk with God shouldn’t be a preoccupation with our denomination or fitting into a certain category. It’s simply about what the Bible says. Let’s stop focusing on our labels and get back to what the Bible actually shows us.

Catholic or Charismatic?

Francis Chan addresses one of the greatest struggles in the church today—fear and insecurity in our relationship with God. Drawing from Scripture, he unpacks the reality of judgment, the spiritual battle for our minds, and the perfect love that casts out fear.

Perfect Love Casts Out Fear | Francis Chan

If we truly believe in heaven & hell, our actions should reflect that—by engaging with the world around us, and loving people the way He did. Let’s be a people that go beyond the walls. Let’s lead with compassion, not just passion.

What Are We Known For?

Ever find yourself disagreeing with something you read in the Bible? At those times, remind yourself that His ways are higher than ours, and His thoughts are beyond our understanding. If He can speak the universe into existence, His wisdom is something far beyond what we can comprehend. So when you feel confused or even rebellious, ask, "God, please help me see things the way You do.”

He's Right, I'm Wrong

As believers, we often find ourselves in a delicate balance between two perspectives. On one hand, we’re called to love the lost without compromising the truth. On the other, we must stand firm in the truth while avoiding self-righteousness. So, how do we navigate this tension? In this week’s teaching, Francis Chan dives into Paul’s message in 2 Timothy 4, painting a picture of a church where truth is never watered down, love and boldness go hand in hand, and the mission is clear: preach the Word, no matter the cost.

Not Ashamed of the Gospel (The End Times Series, Pt. 5) | Francis Chan

It’s not enough to just know the Bible. You’ve got to live it. Has it led you to do something? Has it pushed you toward the good works we’re called to do?  
 
“But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.” (James 1:22-25)

Not Enough

The Bible says all Scripture is God-breathed. So why do we sometimes wait for an audible voice when we have His voice right in front of us every day? It’s time to wake up and listen to what God is saying through His Word—because His voice is already there. Are you ready to hear Him?
