Quotebook: The Choice Between Risk and Comfort

I love this line from John Ortberg's If You Want to Walk on Water, You've Got to Get Out of the Boat.

The decision to grow always involves a choice between risk and comfort. This means that to be a follower of Jesus, you must renounce comfort as the ultimate value of your life. —John Ortberg Share on X

As I've been thinking about next steps for our ministry (and challenging you to do to the same), this quote is a powerful reminder of an essential choice.

The line also begs a question: What have I chosen? Comfort? Or risk? See also, What Baby Steps Will You Take Today?
