In an age when Evangelicalism has identified “fun” as, at best, nothing more than a respite from Christian Mission, Tim and Justin explore the relationship between the Kingdom of Christ and the pursuit of fun; not as simply a respite from Christian Mission, but as an activity that is woven into the Christian’s call to live as a Kingdom Citizen.
