E327 Why Its Not Only Okay but Important to Have Fun

Saddleback Spiritual Growth Pastor Jason Wieland and Saddleback Lake Forest Campus Pastor Katie Edwards talk about the importance of having fun and joy in life. This episode part of an ongoing series on emotional health. When we talk about emotional health, we usually talk about anger, or sadness, or any of the hard, negative feelings. Bu it’s also important to look at the positive emotions – in particular, fun. There can be confusion too about how we should navigate church and our relationship with God, with fun. Am I supposed to have constant posture of reverence and piety, or is there a way to be reverent and fun at the same time? Jason and Katie talk about these questions, along with looking at what it means to have child-like faith, how fun can lead to deeper relationships, and the benefits of having fun within the family of God. Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by the Saddleback Spiritual Growth Team.
