Matt Chandler speaks at the opening session of the Ablaze Conference 2021, held at Biola University.
Explore how the Holy Spirit sparked revival 50 years ago in the Jesus People Movement — and how he can set us ablaze again today. Hosted at Biola University on October 7–9, the Ablaze Conference featured plenary speakers, workshops, worship and a special reunion concert with musical artists from the Jesus People Movement.
Matt Chandler serves as the lead pastor at The Village Church in Flower Mound, TX. He came to The Village in December 2002, and describes his tenure as a replanting effort where he was involved in changing the theological and philosophical culture of the congregation. Matt is currently involved in church planting efforts both locally and internationally through The Village and various strategic partnerships. He serves as president of Acts 29, a worldwide church-planting organization. Over the last 10 years, Acts 29 has emerged from a small band of brothers to over 600 churches in the United States and around the world. His greatest joy outside of Jesus is being married to Lauren and being a dad to their three children, Audrey, Reid and Norah.
