Francis Chan: The Joy of Suffering [Biola University Chapel]

[@JesusSavesBro]

Coming from someone who is suffering dearly right now in many aspects of life, I still rejoice to God and praise and worship him all day everyday. Pastor Francis has a true gift from God and if you haven't read "Crazy Love" ... you should :)

I pray for the one person who disliked this video. i ask that someone, whether me, or someone else, reach out to that person, and see what it is they are going through, and let them no that the love of Christ is for them.

[@Brewer1521]

This is awesome. Praise God for his word and the people who spread it.

[@TINLTL606]

I love his passion and simplicity. Everything he talks about is so very Biblical, he just has such a different perspective. God has blessed that man with amazing words and heart.

[@speterlewis]

Francis is the real deal! The path is both narrow AND radical! Get in The Word, and follow it!

[@oddolive]

I remember in suffering saying, "God gives transendent joy in suffering." I also have many times longed for those days. And this word, reflected in God's word, reminds me of why. I need to be careful not to run to safety, but run to Jesus!

[@Madissonish]

i want to suffer for Christ, and be counted worthy to suffer for the Name...seriously. this moved me, man.

Reading these comments alone tells me something BIG.. Currently there are 75,000-ish views,,the last comment was 4 months ago, after that 8, then 10, then we get into the years.. The top comment here was 3 years ago! I mean, lady gaga (evil) has millions of views.. When you drift, and come to this video, know that because it is unpopular, it is the truth.. It is so hard to find truth in this world. Maranatha... Maranatha...

[@BC828]

Amen..ouch..and Amen! :) So be it Lord!

[@glooer]

@sashascall He is just describing how everyone is living like today in this society.

[@sdhang01]

i love u God!

[@andremzk]

wow, i guess i wasn't the only "crazy" one out there... I'm sorry God for backing off.

[@xneutralgodx]

the parable of the narrow/wide gate is only about disciples teachers preachers prophets evangelists and apostles. from genesis to the gospels gate has always been tied to judgement like Deuteronomy 16:18 ; while way has always been ;how you live like the righteous wise or the foolish wicked Proverbs 2:8 2:20, 4:11-9 , 6:23 Ezekiel 13:22 , 18 . the parable says life and destruction not eternal life or destruction

[@ballindon24]

Never mind, figured he was still reading from Philippians 3

[@ballindon24]

Which scripture was he reading from @ 41:00?

[@luv3buds]

@sashascall Did you listen to the WHOLE message? He never claimed to be perfect... just forgiven

[@Liveoutloud111]

I just want Jesus.

[@Jdkirby123]

The word of God called the Bible speaks directly against abortion. In fact its one of his 10 commandments where it says murder is a sin. Is abortion not murder? than what is it? The fetus is a person. Its the earliest stage of a person in existence. Killing a baby is murder because in fact a baby is a human. In fact you were a baby at some point. You were born in a woman's stomach that is where you came into existence. And in fact I'm pretty sure that you are a human person.

[@thebiblicaldigest]

What!! Are you serious? Man, here allow the Holy One to show you something...Gen 1:28 "God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground." Exo 20:13 You shall not kill... God Bless.

[@killajeul]

YOUR NOT CRAZY!!! haha

[@theshakter]

@jmbates5179 Read the bible (Word of God) You need to understand that Gods love is perfect and that to me is scary because someone can say I love babes but that means I must hate abortion.

[@enyskept]

I'll debate him...

[@adambradley8]

Perhaps you should be driven away from Christianity or faith in Jesus. If you can't breakdown what this Guy is saying then you've missed it. I've put this very plainly. Not meaning offensive but when he spoke about chasing after Jesus not "church culture christianity" it inspired me to push onwards to gain the prize of heaven. Sorry if i have misunderstood you.

[@jonmarck]

This guy's lame. Really? That's the big issue in your life? You can't watch a 5 year-old play a video game? 2 million people contract AIDS in sub-saharan Africa every year and you're having issues with watching your daughter play Mario Kart? Speakers like this drive me away from Christianity.
