As is the American way, we tend to become less adventurous as we get older. We have it backwards. Each day, the life of God in us should become more and more of a reality. As we grow in our intimacy and maturity with Him, our lives should become increasingly radical. If we settle for comfort and safety, we won't grow in our dependence on Christ. He promises to be with us as we go out and make disciples facing the rejection, fear and self-doubt that come with reaching out beyond our capabilities.
