Why is fun an integral part of what God has in store for you, and how can the pursuit of fun answer some of the deeper questions rooting around inside you?
In this growth plan, Annie F. Downs, host of the That Sounds Fun podcast, talks about that sense our lives are lacking something, what it really is, and how to find it.
We have lost Eden, we have lost peace, we have lost the foundation upon which genuine fun can be built. And we have to go search for it.
Let’s rebuild a foundation that used to exist just under our feet, so we can add layer upon layer of the good stuff, the heartbeats, the loud laughs, the tears of joy.
Even the purest, truest fun doesn’t last forever. It is always a glimpse of something bigger, something we miss.
Often we use the word amateur to describe someone who makes a mistake. The actual definition is so much better.
It’s powerful to let yourself fall in love with something or someone. It shows a level of vulnerability when you admit to yourself that the emotion you feel is love.
When the whole world is broken, it’s just nice to know that the things that bring us joy might be the same things that help sew little pieces of the world back together.
Fun is right where you are. It is yours for the taking -- connection with God and people, reminders of the best parts of your past and the dreams of your future, peace and rest.
