Does God Really Love Me? | Francis Chan

About this episode

Francis Chan discusses the nature of God's love and how we can relate to Him as a loving father.

Do you know God as a loving dad? One who always wants to see you, always wants to hear from you, and always wants to be with you? If you answered no, you’re not alone. For a myriad of reasons, many of us struggle to relate to Him as father, but He’s still waiting for you with open arms. His love for us is secure, unmoving and forever, light years better than even the best dad we can imagine. In this message, Francis shares the unique blessing God has for each one of us as His sons and daughters, the boldness with which we can come to Him for grace, and the genuine delight He takes in our every step toward Him. When we show up to His throne room with expectation, we can find mercy, rest in His unearned but ever-present love, encounter His tender affection for us, and be filled with the security of knowing He is for us.
