'To become a beginner again for Jesus'

Italicized text taken from www.robbymac.org

Again, it is not merely the hands-on nature of ministry that qualifies as "faith expressed in deeds"; if nothing that we are involved in requires risk-taking, but instead can be done all by ourselves with or without the Spirit's empowering, we have not yet found that all-important balance. As John Wimber once wrote:

"A disciple is always ready to take the next step. If there is anything that characterizes Christian maturity, it is the willingness to become a beginner again for Jesus Christ. It is the willingness to put your hand in His hand and say 'I'm scared to death, but I'll go with You. You're the pearl of great price.'"


Wow!
