An Update from Francis

Based upon some recent convictions, I will not be taking any more speaking engagements in this season. This is for two reasons:

1. To focus on my local church in East Palo Alto. I want to care more deeply for the people right in front of me–to help those closest to me grow in their intimacy with Christ and calling in ministry.
2. I have concerns about celebrity Christian culture and want to reflect deeply on how I use my voice. America has plenty of voices but not enough people faithfully sharing the gospel and discipling in their everyday lives.

“One who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much.” Luke 16:10

This does not mean that I will never preach outside of the local church again. I trust the Lord will lead me as I abide in Him. I will honor all of the speaking commitments I have already made through 2024. However, until further notice, I will not be considering any events beyond those.
