How do Christians Have FUN?

[Wingwalker]

What DO I do for good, clean Christian fun? Well, let's see. I'm into historical plays & documentaries. Films centered on Christ, Christian & world history. When I travel & speak in various cities, I look up a TJ Maxx or a Brookshiser UpScale store. L.L. Bean fascinates me somewhat. If I'm in Florida or the southeast, it's often Beall's Outlet for great buys at affordable prices. In New England, I'll visit a Lionel Trains Emporium and watch "make-believe" come alive. I love train rides thru fascinating parts of the countryside. In Vermont, the Green State, they have wonderful Book Barns, great reads for a buck or three. Books fascinate me. My library is jammed with over 1000 volumes religious & political. New Hampshire offers travelers its White Mountains. I also walk various trails, like in Northern Ontario or along Lake Michigan in the Windy City of Chicago, etc. Pick-up hockey and softball are great time-consumers among friends. And too, more times than I could describe, the pastor or church leaders offer to show me around their particular areas and purchase tickets for some entertainment on "off" nights. I could watch FOX News with Sean Hannity & Bill O'Reilly without let-up. They think politically as I do. I 'd vote for either man for President in a heartbeat. Either one would give America the impulse it needs on the road back to sobriety, security and, yes, in many ways, salvation. In 2008, I'll push for RUDYfor President2008, perhaps not the most ideal candidate, but certainly a hundred times preferred over ANY UltraLibDemSocialist and with a much better chance (according to recent polls) for victory than a John McCain. The idea is to RETAIN the White House for the Grand Old Party, right? Right On!

GOD BLESS AMERICA INDEED! And keep her strong, vigilant & free.

Right on

I prefer smaller groups and "hanging" out with them, even if it is just at someones house and talking. Food is ALWAYS involved - as this is part of showing you care for someone and is vital I think for good hospitality. People relax while eating and talking!

I think worshiping the Lord is fun.

But I also have fun:

camping

hiking

downhill skiing (or at least I used to before my feet got messed up from rheumatoid arthritis )

watching sunrises and sunsets when I can

playing with my cat

NASCAR (I just got back from the Martinsville race this past weekend - way cool!)

watching wildlife (did you see the AfriCam I posted in the Fellowship Hall?)

spending time with friends

You can have fun doing almost anything really, it's just the attitude.

Who would think driving in a car with 4 boys - all in utter silence.....BLISS!!!!

I like outdoor things.

Camping, hunting, and fishing, I do some climbing and mountain hiking when I can and kayaking. I also like to run and try to make some races if they are not to far away. I enjoy the company of my family, my wife, and I like just walking in the woods and looking at what God has given us. To think that God's hands made that tree uniquely, it is quite astounding to me. I could spend simply all day just out there wandering, which I find great fun.

I also have fun when the car is noisy too. I just like being with my kids. They really are the best gifts God gave me!!

Me and my friends have braai's. A braai is like your barabaque (hope that is spelled right )

We all get together at one of the guys houses and have a swim, listen to music and maybe have a few drinks. I have a very tight bunch of friends and there are alot of us!

If its a nice day we all head for the beach and chill there for the day. Winter is a little different. We spend alot of our time inside watching movies of playing Playstation. A big favourite is the dance mat! Dance dance!

You know, it can be mighty entertaining just watching our three little 3-month-old kitties.

In my younger days, I was an avid SCUBA diver and skier. I also played hockey, which was fun in between fights. In recent years, I have really enjoyed traveling to new states and even countries preaching and teaching the Word. Since getting married just hanging around Marnie is a trip. We hike, swim, do some traveling together, even watching the sun going down over the desert is fun, believe it or not. Maybe it's not what you do that is fun, but who you are lucky enough to be doing it with that's the fun part.
