Recreation

Pastor Bil (BAF) is in the middle of his "House of Blues" series. One of his main points for the first two sermons in the series is "get outside and do something!" He challenged everyone in the church to walk at least a mile outside each day of the week between the first and second sermon.

On the afternoon following the second sermon, I went out and played 18 holes at Lamar. I met up with Morris and his son Daniel. Then two days after the sermon, on Tuesday, I ran into and shot a round with Mark. Morris, Daniel and Mark agreed with me that disc golf is one of the great things to do outside. Daniel and Morris hadn't played in two months, since Morris had broken his leg, and Daniel mentioned that he often grew depressed because they didn't have that time together, and that time outside. Being outside is important! As Bil mentioned in the second sermon, we all need to make the "Mind/Body Connection" (1 Kings 19:4-7). Eat right, drink water, get out and recreate and exercise. It's easy to call disc golf frivolous; you couldn't be more right unless you are discussing your need for fellowship, light exercise, recreation and being outside, between God's earth and God's sky. In my opinion, disc golf is a good walk, enhanced.
