Have you ever read the "Heavenly Man" by Brother Yun? Skip to page 290, where he details some of the training given to "Back To Jerusalem" Chinese missionaries. It should give serious pause for North American Bible college and Seminary students and presidents. To quote, "1. How to suffer and die for the Lord. We examine what the Bible says about suffering, and look at how the Lord's people have laid down their lives for the advance of the gospel throughout history. 2. How to witness for the Lord. We teach how to witness for the Lord under any circumstance, on trains or buses, or even in the back of a police van on our way to the execution ground. 3. How to escape for the Lord. We know that sometimes it is the Lord who sends us to prison to witness for him, but we also believe the devil sometimes wants to go to prison to stop the ministry God has called us to do. We teach the missionaries special skills such how to free themselves from handcuffs, and how to jump from second-story windows without injuring themselves."

Its no excuse to be reckless, but when you reflect on what most people deal with in 2/3rds of the world on a daily basis; you learn to be more careful in some cases and in others you learn not to worry. Not only that but if you listen to the locals, you learn to tell the difference. Traveling overseas you gain a new perspective for what one classifies as 'safe'.

I love the ideas above, but I tend not to post blogs, Twitter, etc. about my plans while I'm away. If I do, I feel like I've basically announced to everyone who reads that my wife and daughter are home alone for the next two weeks while I'm away. I have privacy, safety concerns...any thoughts?
