If I could go and live in another country, it would hands down be Italy. I had the chance to go there for a few days in high school, and fell in love with the history, the people and the beauty of it all. I would love a chance to walk where Paul walked, stay in monastaries and abbeys, and pray through the hours of the day with whomever I came across. I would love to leave my cell phone behind, and find ways to re-connect with God's creation. I would hope I would learn to slow down more, take more time to process God's abundant blessings, and become more mindful about the need for true sabbath. Hopefully in another couple years, when I have been preaching long enough to have earned a sabbatical, I can make that trip happen!
