We bow to those idols and then forget that God is calling us out on a great adventure. We fail to remember that to be men of faith, we have to take leaps of faith. God calls us into that more frequently then we know, but we quiet it, silence it and we stifle it. If you want to live a great adventure, say yes to the small moments and the big one's won't be as scary."
