The StoryField #95 – The One with Matt Chandler about a troubled, performance-driven childhood to a life shaped by grace.

The StoryField Season 1 Episode 95

The One With Matt Chandler — From a troubled, performance-driven childhood to a life shaped by grace.

Pastor Matt Chandler tells his slow, unhurried story: how an unlikely friendship and a youth camp encounter led to a life in Christ, the winding path into vocational ministry, and the rhythms that sustain him. 

Matt reflects on the effectual call that changed him at 17, early ministry in small Texas churches, the formation of the Waiting Room  Ministries with Shane & Shane, and the surprising journey that lead him to an almost extinct church which has now become a highly influential, life-changing church now known as “The Village Church” with regular attendance of thousands weekly. 

Matt is executive chairman of Acts 29, a global church-planting network; a clear, gospel-centered preacher; an author, speaker, and podcast host. 

Listen today and hear wisdom from Matt who has helped believers follow Jesus for decades. Matt would encourage you to exchange performance for affection and presence with Jesus.
