What Are You Hiding? | Francis Chan

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?

The Revenge of God | Francis Chan

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.
