What the world needs now

As I think lately what is missing in people's lives, what might create a bridge for people to get to Jesus... I think people don't know how to have any fun. I'm not sure I do. I mean yeah I have some fun. I do some fun things. I have some friends and we get together and have some fun, but it still feels pretty reserved.

I've been to two or three wedding receptions where there were enough non-Christians and good enough music that everybody really let go and had a good time. I don't think I've ever been to a "Christian" wedding where the reception was much fun. In fact, those receptions are usually about opening the gifts (yawn). The opening for non-Christians is usually alcohol. It lowers their inhibitions enough to let loose.

Can Jesus be a bridge to lower inhibitions into some pure joy, some pure raw fun?

So let's have some fun. I'm giving it some thought.
