Sometimes we need a good reality check. The rich culture we live in (yes, we are filthy rich in comparison to 90% of the world) is constantly promulgating the idea that the apex of life is achieving a state of financial independence so that one can enjoy constant ease and recreation. Is there something wrong with ease and recreation? No, certainly there is place for balanced ease and recreation in the life of a Christ-follower.
