Risks
This morning, during my Bible study, I came upon the following verse, which just again confirmed this calling for me, as to be Unsafe.
Luke 19:24-26 (The Message)
24“Then he said to those standing there, ‘Take the money from him and give it to the servant who doubled my stake.’
25“They said, ‘But Master, he already has double . . .’
26“He said, ‘That’s what I mean: Risk your life and get more than you ever dreamed of. Play it safe and end up holding the bag.
For those that want to join me in this challenge of being unsafe in your faith, step up now, and let us form a community to support each other, as well as to challenge each other.
It is no good that we sit in our comfy lives, praying and reading the Bible, but not actually stepping out into the world and following God’s call to his people, and that is to speak the Gospel, and win souls for the Kingdom of God. I would urge each and every one of you to get a hold of a copy of the book, Life on the Line. This book will show to you what can be done, if you step out in faith, and take up the challenge of being Unsafe.

Mat 13:44 Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which when a man has found it, he hides it, and for the joy of it goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.
Mat 13:45 Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls;
Mat 13:46 who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
This was such a well articulated article, thank you for your time in putting it together and sharing it with everyone.
