AP Story About Pastor Matt Chandler

January 31, 2010

Matt Chandler is the Senior Pastor of The Village Church in Highland Village, Texas (about 45 minutes north of Dallas).  On Thanksgiving Day he collapsed with a seizure that would later that day be diagnosed as cancer of the frontal lobe.  Matt is a dear brother, lover of Christ and the gospel, and a great communicator of the Word of God.  Keep Matt, his wife Lauren, their children (Audrey, 7, Reid, 4, and Norah, 6 months) in your prayers as well as the saints at the Village Church.

Read the January 30  AP story on Matt.

Here’s an excerpt:

Another cancer patient Chandler has gotten to know spends his time in radiation imagining that he’s playing a round of golf at his favorite course. Chandler on this first Monday in January is reflecting on Colossians 1:15-23, about the pre-eminence of Christ and making peace through the blood of his cross.
