Resumen en inglés In this article, the author seeks to begin establishing biblical boundaries for ethical discussions regarding entertainment. Recognized as a cultural force, leisure is an indelible part of the human experience. While embedded in a sinful world, leisure has its legitimate and important role in Christian life. The author argues that Christians should not refrain from partaking of this aspect of human life. Rather, they should inform their hearts biblically and follow the fourfold application of God’s law in choosing wisely how to live. The Christian needs to look at the clear commandments of God, inform his own conscience, be mindful of the weaker brethren, and be careful not to bring unnecessary scandal to the culture around the church
