Why are so many adults in our culture acting like children? This article explores this intresting new trend. Charles Colson comments on the article, noting that there is a difference between play as the primary goal of life, and play as an important aspect of how God created us.
Though we should take time for leisure, and play, we should also strive to take play seriously. I realize that when we play we are usually taking a break from being serious, but what I mean is that we are to take every thought captive (2 Corinthians 10:5) to the obedience of Christ. We should be careful that our leisure, play, and occasional love of childish things does not rule us.
