Many will call me an adventurer, and that I am...only one of a different sort: one who risks his skin to prove his truths.

we may seek to impose severe restrictions upon what, how and when we engage with others so that the risks are statistically minimised.

Since part of our creative responsibility is to move from imagination to image, we need to take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ and allow our imagination once again to be the playground of God. And once our dreams and visions are the material that has been passed on to us by a divine imagination, then it is time to dream, to risk, and to create.

most people would rather live in the predictability of captivity than risk the uncertainty that comes in a fight for freedom.

If the safest place to be is in the center of the will of God, then an appropriate measure of God's will is the test, 'is it safe?'... This view runs counter to what we find in the Scriptures. I want to reiterate the fact that the center of God's will is not a safe place, but the most dangerous place in the world.

La desafortunada realidad es que muchos de nosotros escogeríamos nuestra comodidad en lugar de nuestro destino; escogeríamos la seguridad sobre la oportunidad; preferiríamos conformarnos con menos que sacrificarnos más.

If failure is our inevitable future, then let's fail boldly and fail forward.

Urgency is characterized as impetuousness, while risk management is defined not as taking the right risk, but as avoiding risk altogether.

We cannot love deeply or risk greatly and never know failure or disappointment.

Podemos tener tanto miedo a la muerte que nunca vivimos, tanto miedo al fracaso que nunca nos arriesgamos, tanto miedo al dolor que nunca descubrimos cuán fuertes somos realmente.

When we sit under the pomegranate tree protecting the life we have, we risk relinquishing what God really wants for us—to seize our divine destiny.

But you might wonder to yourself: What if I never find love? After all, you can't be held responsible if you've searched for love, risked in love, even fought for love, and yet have always found it unrequited. When love does not come to you, it breaks your heart, but when you do not give love away, it hardens your heart. One thing stranger than our need to be loved is our need to love, which again leads me to my conspiracy theory: We are designed for love.

no debemos permitir que el temor nos robe nuestro futuro, y cada día que caminamos por esta tierra debemos estar seguros de no guardar nada para la próxima vida. Nunca debes permitir que el temor te mantenga atrapado. El momento en que decides jugar a lo seguro, has perdido el partido. En lugar de huir de tus temores, apóyate en ellos, porque al otro lado de ellos está el futuro que anhelas. Esos momentos forman carácter y forjan el futuro.

Our pop theology has eliminated the place for risk and insulated us with a comfort-and-security theology. This view runs counter to what is found in the Scriptures. I want to reiterate the fact that the center of God's will is not a safe place, but the most dangerous place in the world. God fears nothing and no one. God moves with intentionality and power.
