I'm a saved christian.
Yesterday I went and watched the cars race at the racetrack.
Today I rode 4-wheelers and Go-Carts with my family. After wards we went swimming at the lake. We had a blast!
Last weekend a group of us went horseback trail riding in the mountains.
Sometimes we; go hiking, boating, fishing, the mall all day, para-sailing, etc.,
Basically we do anything that doesn't involve sex, alcohol, drugs, violence or crime.
And it's really great because we have fun.
We don't need someone else to tell us what we did because we were so messed up we can't remember, or fearing what we did gave us a disease.

I do lots of things for fun. I have friends. We get together and watch movies, we go out to eat. We love going to the mountains, and probably our favorite passtime is ultimate frisbee. I have another good friend who is planning a murder mystery dinner, and these things are just a good time for us all to get together and hang out and encourage one another. Christians do have fun, the difference is that I don't think that the same things are fun as an unbeliever. There was a time in my life, before the Lord saved me, that going out on the weekends and drinking, having sex, and living a life of excess would have been appealing. While I do still struggle with temptation, I know that these things are dishonoring to the Lord and I find things that are more fun and edifying to spend my time doing.

I enjoy spending time with friends, having a cookout, listening to music, going swimming. I study for school (although that's not nearly as fun as some other stuff), I go on road trips, attend men's conferences with like minded people. Sometimes I go camping.
Sometimes I just surf the web, and I do a lot of reading, because that's my favorite pastime.
Christians enjoy many of the same things most other people do, we just do it without getting high first, and don't sleep around, and worrying if someone just got pregnant or diseased. A whole lot better sleep without having those kinds of thoughts running through your head. Guilt free living is the way to go!

Well, I'm married with kids, so I usually just hang out at home with my family. We watch movies and eat popcorn.
Otherwise, my wife and I go out on dates. We go to nice restaurants, or catch a movie.
We also have our friends over to play cards and hang out.
You seem to indicate that holy saved people don't have fun doing what they do.
Maybe you mean that the only way to have fun is to wallow in sin.
What do you do?

When you know Christ you have totally different appetites, and the things that give us joy are much different than the things that give you happiness. We enjoy being with other Christians, we enjoy being alone with God, And we spend our time doing things that are constructive and encouraging to other people. We tend to spend time with our families more than going "out on the town". Growing up on Saturday night our whole family would get together and have a great time of games, discussions, and just old fashion fun. At 64 years of age we still do that. I wouldn't have it any other way.

People who are saved have fun!! Why does everyone have this preconception that christians are dorks?! or some strange Holy Rollers? I believe that God has an enormous sense of humor and wants life to be fun and fruitful. We are not boring! being Christian is cool. Honey!!!!

Go to church on the Sunday. Then do stuff a normal 13 year old would do. Play sport, visit relitives, raid the pantry, go to the mall etc. Just normal stuff. Ya do whatever. We are not dorks, like me I'm a comedian. I think there are two type of people, nothing to do with religion, "Life is terrible, global warming will kill us" people, or "Life if funny, Shame on human race Global warming is gonna wipe us out!" I'm like that.

I work. But after work I do this. Sometimes I play along with Pink Floyd or just jam. I jacuzzi, and/or swim. I like to chill on the balcony while smoking cigarettes and think about everything, including scripture. I love Pepsi. I read. And I'm thinking of asking this certain girl to go out with me finally. I converse with others of my acquantance, and watch movies sometimes.
Thanks for asking.

play baseball, basketball , softball, camp, hike , swim, go to theme parks, fishing, playing with my kids, bar-b-q's, church functions, bowling, family reunions, yard work, work on our cars, home improvements, work in the garden, go to the mall, boating on the river, skiing, and many other thing, depending on where you live. Just because we are Christians, doesn't mean we don't have as much fun as the next person. We just do things in a Christianly way.

that's the problem. when my mom made me go to church every Sunday, it was home, school, sleep, home, school, sleep, home...on and on, and then once every week there was church. i hated it. i never went anywhere Saturdays. i wish i did, but my mom wouldn't let me hang out with any of my friends.
needless to say, when i got half a chance, i ran away. they still dont understand why i did what i did, and I'm 24 now.
haven't been to church for a couple years, and i dont feel like i need to. i can worship god in whatever way i want, it still means the same as long as I'm truthful about everything, and as far as I'm concerned i am.
its not like i was a horrible child, i never even got the chance to be grounded. i didnt have a curfew, i wasnt allowed to go out.
it was like i was a prisoner in my own home.
