Three Cheers for Francis Chan

Francis Chan of Cornerstone Church in Simi Valley, California recently stepped down from his role as senior pastor to pursue his calling in the Kingdom. Francis is a great preacher and the church grew large over the years because of this preaching gift.
      The following interview with Francis discusses why he left the church. Mark Driscoll is one of the interviewers. Mark is the pastor of a large multi-site church in Seattle. Francis' vision and courage is so incredibly inspiring to me. Mark's myopic and small view of the pastor's role is ... well, less than Kingdom minded, in my view.

  1. Why be so negative about Mark? Let's love him and help him and be thankful for the way GOD (!) has called him....
