Top 10 Reasons to Take the Summer Off
After last weeks Top 10 Reasons Taking the Summer Off Is a Bad Idea, I thought I’d better provide equal representation. Here’s my best shot at the flip side:
- After a full year together, it’s definitely time to move on to a new group of friends.
- My summer schedule is so jam-packed with my family and my real friends that I can’t possibly fit my group members in!
- I’m all about 100% commitment. If I have to miss a meeting because I’m out of town on vacation…I’d rather just call the whole thing off!
- My pastor is taking a study break…and so am I!
- If I don’t get my beauty rest, 2 or 3 months off over the summer, I’m just no good to anyone!
- You’ve got the All Star Game, the World Cup every four years, NFL training camps, the Olympics…how can anyone possibly keep up if you’ve still got a weekly meeting?
- I’m so committed to real Bible study that if we just met to hang out, eat some good food, and watch a movie…well, it just wouldn’t be the same.
- Daylight Savings Time! Gotta love it!
- Wouldn’t want to let our hair down and just party together. What kind of example would that set for our kids!
- Whatever you do, don’t use low-pressure summer days to invite some of your old friends to hang out with some of your new friends. Awkward!
