This trip was truly one of the more profound life experiences I have had. As a pastor who has been in ministry for 46 years I can honestly say that there are parts of the Pauline Epistles and Revelation which I will never read the same way again. Being onsite at the locations where Paul planted churches and the churches to whom John was writing, as well as being in Rome and in a place like Mamertine Prison where Paul wrote Philippians with complete joy while awaiting execution, not only helped me understand God's word with more clarity, but helped me take another step in my relationship with Jesus, and my commitment to live for Him so that the summary of my life might one day be Acts 13:36. I will be forever grateful for this trip, and for Rod and Libby who are wonderfully gifted teachers who poured their life and knowledge into us with passion, authenticity, and the love of Jesus that is so evident in them.
