Adventure
"An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is only an adventure wrongly considered." — G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936), British author. All Things Considered, "On Running After One's Hat" (1908).
Or, in the words of the more common cliché: "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade."

"The worship of God is not a rule of safety—it is an adventure of the spirit, a flight after the unattainable."
—Alfred North Whitehead, "Science in the Modern World"
We must make certain that our worship services do not become mere "safety zones."

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
