Play - a podcast by J. Pittman McGehee, D.D.

Pittman McGehee was asked to give a 15 minute talk on Play in Houston at the University of Houston Center for Humanities called Visions for Houston. So the beginning of this talk is about someone happening in the news at the time (Ginsberg) who was denied the ability to serve his country because of smoking marijuana and what a miserable theology it was to not forgive misdeeds and experimentation. Then he described play for 15 minutes which wasn't long enough so this Sunday School class taught on 11/8/87 gave him an opportunity to elaborate on it and he begins by saying we are all conceived in play in order for creation to continue. What is play for human beings is the question. He says the opposite of play is not work and only you know what that looks like for yourself. Then in his usual humorous style of story telling he speaks of going to Bennihana’s for his son’s birthday and I will let you all hear how he tells it. Enjoy!
