A childhood friend of mine, Rebekah Warner, is about to leave for three years missionary work through an organization that intentionally sends their workers into the poorest places in the world. If you have any desire to help support her, let me know and I'll send you the link to donate.
It got me thinking, maybe the reason we love romance stories where two people leave everything behind--money, family, status--in order to be together....maybe we love those stories because that is the kind of romance that Jesus calls us into.
Donald Miller once said that Romeo and Juliet is a very spiritual play, and I didn't really believe him until just now.
