In this episode of the Crazy Love Podcast, Francis Chan opens his heart about what it truly means to live from God’s love rather than striving to earn it. So many of us believe God loved us when we were His enemies, yet live as though His affection now depends on our performance as His children. Francis reminds us that God’s love is constant, unshakable, and infinitely beyond anything we can imagine.
This message echoes the heartbeat of Francis’ brand-new book, Beloved, releasing October 7th. Written with his daughter Mercy, the book invites readers to move beyond head knowledge of God’s love into a daily, lived experience of His presence and delight.
You can pre-order Beloved today and pick up your copy wherever books are sold.

Break My Heart for What Breaks Yours | Francis Chan
Do you care too much about your career, your house, or even your favorite sports team, and too little about what God cares about?
In this challenging message, Francis admits his own struggle with this question. He explains that we often fail to weep over sin because we love to talk about God’s blessings and promises but shy away from His warnings of judgment. This message will force you to look at your own life and ask if your heart is truly aligned with God's. What breaks your heart? And is it what breaks God’s?

Jumping in the Deep End | Francis Chan
What would it look like if the Church truly lived out the radical faith found in the Book of Acts? In this compelling message, Francis Chan urges believers to go beyond passively hearing God’s word and begin living lives marked by deep repentance, bold obedience, and authentic transformation. He challenges the Church to break free from spiritual complacency and embrace a lifestyle that reflects the sacrificial, Spirit-empowered way of the early Christians.
Chan paints a vision of a community where older generations uplift the young, resources are freely surrendered for Kingdom work, and God’s supernatural provision follows fearless steps of faith. This is a passionate plea for revival rooted in humility, surrender, and a willingness to give up comfort and control. The result? A Church that is fully alive, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and unafraid to dive headfirst into the unknown for the sake of the Gospel.

Returning to Reverence | Francis Chan
In today’s message, Francis Chan challenges our modern assumptions about worship, prayer, and the presence of God. Drawing from Hebrews 12, he paints a vivid picture of the God we’ve forgotten—blazing fire, darkness, tempest, unapproachable light—and reminds us that worship isn’t about our preferences or opinions, but about coming before the Almighty with reverence and awe.
Wherever you’re listening today, this is a word to sit with, to wrestle with, and to let reshape how you approach the living God.
