Comfort calls us to maintain the status quo and keep to well-known paths. Adventure urges us to blaze new trails and explore unfamiliar territories—both geographic and intellectual. Comfort whispers that we should protect our self-interest and guard our resources. Adventure challenges us to put others first and give generously to those in need. Comfort prefers to keep our understanding of God small, manageable, safely contained. Adventure invites us to dance with a wild God who exceeds all our categories.
