I don’t consider myself an adventurous person at all (I hate roller coasters and don’t want to try white water rafting) but I do like traveling. And I’ve decided the two places I want to visit before I die are Australia and Israel. My reason stems from my devotion to Christ. In Australia, I want to visit Hillsong Church and be part of their worship. The music this church produces is so inspiring and encouraging. Two of my favorite songs are Inside Out, Mighty to Save and None but Jesus. Check them out – they will stir up your passion for Christ!
Of course, visiting the Holy Land is must for all Christians but I am realistic and know it’s not always possible. I pray that I can make it there someday – I’d like to plan a trip for my son’s high school graduation (my son is not even 2 years old yet but I can plan!) I want to stand upon the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, sit where my Savior sat and walk along the land where my spiritual roots began. I can only imagine how differently I’d read my Bible after visiting God’s chosen land.
Has anyone been to either of these places and can share some great stories?
