Welcome to a very spooky episode of Resident Strangers - just kidding. How should Christians think about Halloween? We're breaking that down as today's episode is being released on October 31st. Are you someone that turns off your lights when trick-or-treaters come around or do you engage your neighbors and participate in a God-honoring way? Both viewpoints are discussed and shockingly the hosts don't all agree! What is agreed upon is that Christians should certainly avoid and be against witchcraft, demonology and anything that resembles those things. Christians should also not use Halloween as an excuse for conduct that would otherwise be inappropriate. Steve points to 1 Corinthians 8 and presents the idea that this is a place of personal liberty in Christ. So much of this comes down to the heart attitude; not being close to anything involving Satan or the occult but taking time to ask the Lord what He would have you do. Our biggest encouragement is to leverage these cultural events as opportunities to tell people about Jesus in whatever way you feel peace with.
