 Sabbaticals are a great idea... |

But they only work if the pastor can shut off.
Fess up, guys. When we are on vacation or were away from our respective churches on a Sunday, how many of us checked our watches repeatedly wondering what was going on in our church, whether there were any problems, or even worse, imagining all types of disastrous scenarios.

I do remember the feeling, but mostly I remember my dad. He could not "NOT THINK OF HIS PEOPLE AND HIS CHURCH" so I do know what you are saying. Also if the pastor's wife is a working lady, it will keep him still close and usually in the same town. Some of his members would still CALL with situations.
That said, I still believe in my heart if somehow my dad could have taken a Sabbatical (I doubt if he even knew what it meant) he could have pastored for 10 more years and been productive. but that is second guessing life. He is in heaven enjoying LIFE.
BUT it is for sure you do have a POINT!
