**NOTICE: the following is a fictitious advertisement in an attempt to make a simple point: making leisure self-focused is sinful and demonic. The summer is upon us, so vacations are on the brain. Certainly God wants us to enjoy rest and leisure, but everything we do should be for the glory of God. We will only truly enjoy rest and leisure when we enjoy Christ, and a life centered on Christ will naturally (with the help of the Spirit) use times of leisure and rest for worship.Hello and welcome to Satan’s Vacation Agency!My name is Glutton N.
