Why do dogs return to their vomit? Why does a washed pig run back to the mud? Because their nature hasn’t changed. You can clean them up on the outside, but they’re still the same inside.

In this message, Francis Chan reflects on how his encounters in Uganda reshaped his life, family, and ministry. Sharing from personal testimony and Scripture, he warns against the danger of external religion—programs, good sermons, or emotional moments—without true inner transformation. Drawing on passages from 2 Peter, Jeremiah, and Romans, Francis explains that only the Holy Spirit can change our nature: giving us a holy fear of God and pouring His love into our hearts.

What if all the insecurity, fear, and comparison have been lies—meant to distract you from something God settled before you were even born?

So many live with a quiet ache, wondering if they really matter—if they’re really made for anything significant. But in Jeremiah 1, God tells us something staggering: ‘Before I formed you, I knew you.’

In this teaching, Francis Chan opens up about his own journey of self-doubt, and the breakthrough that came when he realized he wasn’t an accident. He was made for a purpose—and so are you.

What if you could live without fear—truly fearless, even in the face of death, suffering, or the unknown? What if the hardest truths about your own heart didn’t crush you, but instead became the gateway to joy and courage?

In this teaching, Francis Chan walks through Psalm 23. He unpacks how the Psalm shifts from God as an idea to God as a present Shepherd, and challenges us to live fearless lives rooted in God's sovereignty, goodness, and eternal promises.

Have you ever faced a season so painful, so intense, that you wondered if something had gone terribly wrong in your walk with God? What if the very trials we dread are actually signs that we’re right where we’re meant to be?

In this teaching, Francis Chan opens up 1 Peter 4 to show us that suffering for Christ isn’t strange—it’s expected. He explains how trials test and refine our faith, and why the Spirit of God meets us most powerfully not in comfort, but in difficulty.

In this deeply honest and raw message, Francis Chan shares from a place of personal repentance. Recently stepping away from his long-term role in ministry, he reflects on a season of distraction and spiritual dullness, confessing that he had started loving other things more than Christ—not sinful things, but lesser things that still pulled his heart away from Jesus.

Grounding his reflections in Philippians 3, he emphasizes Paul's radical passion for Christ—counting everything else as loss compared to knowing Him. Francis challenges the church to examine their own hearts: Do we love Jesus or just the things He gives?

In this powerful and sobering episode, Francis Chan dives into one of the most often overlooked aspects of God’s character—His wrath. Teaching from the Book of Revelation, Francis reminds listeners that the justice and vengeance of God are not blemishes to be hidden but perfections to be praised. He calls the Church to a deeper reverence for Scripture, urging believers to embrace all of who God is, not just the parts that feel comfortable.

Francis challenges the cultural drift toward a sanitized, palatable version of God—one that never confronts or offends—and warns that when we reshape God's character to fit our preferences, we cease to worship the true God.

This episode is a call to humility before God’s Word—a reminder that even when we don’t fully understand His ways, He remains perfectly holy, righteous, and good. True worship begins when we stop trying to tame God and instead stand in awe of Him.

What are you really living for? Everyone is building treasure somewhere, but only one treasure lasts forever. In this episode, Francis Chan helps us refocus our hearts on the kingdom of heaven. He shares powerful stories of sacrifice, surprising joy, and practical ways to invest in what truly matters. It's not about what must be given up—it’s about discovering what’s infinitely better.

What does it really look like to die to yourself? It’s a phrase often heard in church but rarely lived out in radical, visible ways. In this episode, Francis Chan confronts the quiet drift happening in the Church—where believers try to hold on to their lives while adding Jesus on top. Through Scripture and the powerful story of a village in China that chose selfless love over personal comfort, Francis invites us to wrestle with the truth: following Jesus isn’t about adding Him to our plans—it’s about letting go completely.

Jesus said we would do greater works than He did… but what does that actually mean? Is that really possible? Have we settled for something less than what Jesus intended? In this message, Francis Chan wrestles with Jesus’ bold promise—unpacking what it means to believe for more, to pray with expectation, and to step into the supernatural life God designed for His church.

So often, we’re told that following Jesus will make life easier… but what if that’s not what Jesus said at all? In this message, Francis Chan walks us through what the Bible clearly teaches about suffering. Jesus taught us to expect it, to embrace it, and to arm ourselves with the mindset that following Him will not be easy. He’ll show us that overcoming sin requires suffering, that living for the will of God means leaving our old lives behind, and that real love is expressed in serving others, not in being served.
