God often requires that His prophets be exiled into the wilderness for a time before returning to proclaim the message. This often comes through being rejected by his people/family or through God providentially moving one away from what is comfortable into that which is foreign. Neither is voluntarily chosen but it is necessary. This was true of Joseph, Moses, Elijah, Daniel, John the Baptist, and certainly of Jesus.

Brilliant: "It's not always easy to decide which seemingly crazy or strange people should be believed. But it’s important to recognize that the deepest insights, and most contrarian yet true thinking, often comes from deeply wounded people. They are often the only one who have been sufficiently awakened to the reality that the shadows on the wall are just that. People, institutions, and society at large ignore this at their own peril." Thank you.
