Francis Chan is a pastor in Simi Valley, California. He is brining the Word to his church and Christians around the world in a unique way and with a fresh voice. Recently, he led his church to forgo building a multi-million dollar worship center and instead to start plans to build an amphitheater. The outdoor facility will be completed for a fraction of the price and the money they save will help fund ministries that feed hungry children around the world. What a vision!
His sermons are transparent and deeply challenging. He has challenged me in many ways. You can watch one of his sermons by clicking here. He challenges his church to a renewed passion for God while living in a lukewarm society.

Great post and video Phil, welcome to blogging!!!
