If we could hang out for a weekend, what would we do and talk about and anything else?
If we could hang out for a weekend, I'd take you to the camp where I gave my life to Christ for a retreat, and I'd tell you how each rec can be connected back to the concept of feeling afraid, even though you're in a harness or otherwise perfectly safe, and you have to make a choice to jump or repel or swing even though your feelings are telling you you're in danger--and then the harness catches you like God catches you, and you get to swing and feel exhilarated on the other side!
Then I'd drive you to the little town just outside the camp where there's a two-room movie theater and we'd watch a movie and then we'd grab sinfully gigantic coffee-cookie shakes at a nearby cafe and dissect whatever movie we watched. If I could pick the movie, it would be Signs or Lilo & Stitch.
Then we'd drive back to the camp, listening to The Gray Havens and Twenty One Pilots, and play archery tag (which is like dodgeball, but with bow-and-arrows that have tennis balls on the end so you can't impale each other) until the sun sets, and then we'd go to church (the camp does evening worship services at their church) and then we'd talk at the campfire about whatever we learned in church until it was bedtime. Then we'd sleep in ENO's over the creek like real camp counselors.
