Francis Chan

“Chan said it struck him as “almost silly” and even “heretical” to take this view of communion. However, at the urging of his friends and fellow ministry leaders, Hank Hanegraaff and K.P. Yohannan, Chan says he decided to study early church history to discover what they believed about communion, or the Eucharist.” - C. Leaders

During a sermon delivered at Moody Bible Institute’s Founders Week Conference: “I’m going, ‘God, please, please heal,’” he recalled. “People started coming forward for healing….Every person I touched was healed,” Chan declared as the audience applauded. - Christian Post

“There are millions who will never hear strong biblical teaching unless teachers are willing to go.” - Christianity Today

“I share the dismay of my trench-buddy, Jordan Standridge, about Francis Chan’s new bedfellows, which include Benny Hinn, Todd White, and others in the lunatic fringe of the charismatic plutocracy….But I’m not quite ready to ‘farewell’ him.” - Cripplegate

“I think it is time to say that Francis has shifted so far that he has embraced false teachers and has disqualified himself from the benefit of the doubt. That does not mean that he is a false teacher, nor that he is beyond repentance.” - Cripplegate

Francis Chan’s Letters to the Church

As difficult as it is, we need to be mindful of death. We must make decisions with our day of death in mind. Please, please, please consider spending just ten minutes in solitude today, meditating about your own funeral. Imagine standing before a God who “dwells in unapproachable light” (1 Timothy 6:16). But don’t stop there. Perhaps ponder some major life decisions after meditating on death.
