But the proper response to our media over-saturation is not a rigorous attention to the explicitly &#8220;spiritual&#8221; in every margin of life. Be a Christian, not an ascetic. Don&#8217;t be lazy, but realize that Jesus Christ did not die and rise for you so that you would stress out about whether you&#8217;re being spiritual enough. So take a nap. Watch some television. The gospel frees you to chill the heck out.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yup.  I worry too much that I&#8217;m not doing the &#8216;right&#8217; thing or the &#8216;Godly&#8217; thing at any given moment.
