I spend a pleasant hour every Tuesday watching Father Brown,

a British series based on GK Chesterton’s stories.

I loved one of Father Brown’s lines in a recent episode,

which I think works for missionaries too.

Father Brown is setting off with Flambeau,

a potentially dangerous criminal, and his friend says

I don’t want you going with him on your own.

But, says Father Brown, I am never alone.

It’s a perk of the job.
