TENSION:
Fun is one aspect of life.
Fun is like sweets on the food pyramid: totally good as part of a healthy balance.
TRUTH:
John 10:10 The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.
Following Jesus is about a full life not just a fun life.

Stay close to Jesus, he produces a full life not just a fun life.
