More than anything, I thin it is the risk vs reward nature of the show. These men are not reckless. They are taking a calculated risk. I feel that in church planting. I left a great steady ministry to launch out into seas that have been stormy at times. At times it feels reckless, but it is actually a calculated risk. I am calculating that the God who clearly called me to do this, will provide. That He will make me a “fisher of men”. I love this quote by St. Thomas Aquinas

“If the highest aim of a captain were to preserve his ship, he would keep it in port forever.”

Your life was not built to stay in the harbor. You were built by God to influence a world that is in need of His grace and compassion.
