God created man in his image, and He made us to work in different ways as men and women. Work is what we do primarily to provide for ourselves or others that we are in some way responsible for. But what about the time we spend not working? What are we supposed to do during this “play,” “leisure,” or “hobby” time? What type of activities can and should the Christian engage in? Are there things that Christians should avoid, and if so, why? Join Pastors Erdman, Jantz and Hacker as they take a deeper dive into one of the subjects that was taught at our 2025 Restoring Truth Conference. We value your feedback and suggestions on this episode and future episodes. Email us at [email protected].
