About this listen

Developing a Practical Theology of Risk

In a world where danger and uncertainty loom large, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and unsure about how to tread wisely in ministry. Yet, imagine having a comprehensive guide to aid in discerning, reshaping, and skillfully handling the risks that come your way.

Facing Danger: A Guide through Risk is that resource. Against the rich backdrop of her family’s own sojourn in perilous places, Anna Hampton presents a treasure trove of practical tools and profound insights to help you thrive in an increasingly hazardous world. With deep spiritual contemplation and meticulous research, she offers a unique viewpoint on cross-cultural service and the art of making sacrifices.

Missionaries, pastors, and those yearning to embrace a life of unyielding faith will find Facing Danger to be an indispensable resource. It includes a trauma recovery recipe, sixteen risk myths, a hermeneutical methodology, and risk assessment and management training. Facing Danger equips you to create a systematic action plan to faithfully traverse dangerous landscapes. Hampton empowers readers serving Christ to decipher and adeptly handle risk with wisdom and hope.

Critic reviews

"With friends, families, churches, and organizations confused by the fact that Christfollowers knowingly step into dangerous and even life-threatening situations, I wonder why it has taken so long for us to engage with the content covered in Anna Hampton’s book. This book will prove invaluable for those planning to serve God in dangerous settings and those who need faith to stand with them."

Martin Campbell

"Having lived with our family for many years in high-risk countries and spiritually dark places, facing danger and threats on numerous occasions, I am thankful to Anna Hampton for writing this book. She challenges readers on various levels to be spiritually sensitive and discerning, follow God’s call, and count the cost. Anna shares deep theological insights from the Old and New Testaments, reflecting on the cosmic battle we are in and thus making workers aware that reaching challenging places with the truth of Christ needs more than an adventurous spirit. Her section on rearing children in risky environments is insightful and helpful. Anyone going to or already working in high-risk countries should read this book and assess their motivation, personal relationship with the Lord, and biblical understanding of risk."

There can be a tendency in the evangelical world to over-spiritualize or dismiss risk and its profound and lasting impact. Anna provides a path down the middle of those two extremes with this profoundly insightful and helpful resource. This book is not written from either a theoretical posture or a “low-risk” location; she writes from life experience in some of the most volatile areas in the world, having lost numerous close friends and yet being willing, along with her family, to live and work amidst these realities. This will be a book I will utilize for my own as well as organizational discernment as we have staff moving in and out of high-risk regions of the world.
