I am very moved and disarmed by this interview. Matts heart for his children and people are powerful. Illness like this rattles me and the faith that it displays in you is otherworldly. I just finished praying for you and wish i
I could give you a hug. I will be praying for your family and the defeat of this cancer for Gods glory!

You can most certainly ask God for physical healing. What most people fail to realize is that, not only is God able to heal, but that God is WILLING to heal. They just never actually go ahead and ask in faith. Did Jesus ever say “I don’t feel like healing you”? No. He ALWAYS had compassion and mercy on those who asked him for healing and he ALWAYS completely healed them. They were in the presence of the giver of life (God), though assaulted by the minister of death (Satan).
God is good- ALL the time.

Dear pastor Chandler,

my names David jones. I was just diagnosed with a second relapse of stage 4 ewings sarcoma. There is no set cure for it as of now and my chances aren’t good at all. Like you, I look at it as a gift from god. Your words helped inspire me to live it through, even though the chemo is rough. I pray for you to be completely healed for you have a far bigger purpose on this earth than I have. Stay strong and keep fighting. Gods will be done.

With Christian love,
David

I got diagnosed with epilepsy a couple of weeks ago, and I’ve been confused about how to view it. Do I take the plunge and believe for physical healing? Do I thank God IN – but not FOR – the circumstance? This post didn’t clear it all up for me, but it helped. Thank you for doing the interview.

Every week I get to sit and watch what real faith, real life and a real love for Christ looks like at the Village Church. Watching victory in suffering like that – makes me want Jesus that much more! I am encouraged, and my deepest prayer in all of this lives are transformed, knees dropping before a very beautiful – good – gracious Lord. Matt is one of many stories of His grace and mercy. It is a privelage to witness and pray over.

Matt,

Have any of your friends or family recommended the book, Outsmart Your Cancer, by Tanya Harter Pierce, published in 2009? If not as I surmise, then I suggest either you or your wife run, not walk, to your nearest bookstore or Amazon and get it. It is nothing short of a gift from God, especially the four chapters on Protocel. God is in control of our going out and coming in, and everyone who struggles with cancer, need to know there are other extremely viable alternatives for treatment out there.

God bless,

As a member of The Village I can personally attest to the overwhelming outpouring of God on our body during this time. I think many of us were shaken and though we ourselves didn’t walk through this trial, we all shared a common fear and grief. The Lord has been so good though to remind our body that it isn’t Matt’s church, it’s HIS. HE will sustain, HE will provide, HE will move; HE will heal. We conintue to plead for Matt’s healing, but rest in knowing that our Father has not abandoned us (or him) and that our deepest longings will be filled not by hope in man, but hope in God Almighty.
