32: A Call For Christians To Reconsider Celebrating Halloween
In this episode, we chat about why Christians should reconsider celebrating Halloween.
It is becoming a growing celebration in Australia and already a significant event in the UK and US. So much so that it is engrained into our western culture.
Many Christians still partake in Halloween, even if it is just dressing up for fun.
But what if we suggest you put aside your cultural reasons and discuss what it says in the Bible about parterning with darkness?
Despite what reasons Christians have for celebrating Halloween or dabbling in it at least, we must look to the Bible for the way we conduct ourselves.
And while the Bible does not talk about Halloween specifically, there is a lot to say about partnering with dark spiritual forces, that are a play on Halloween.
We also talk about our thoughts on Santa and the Easter Bunny and whether or not we should acknowledge them as Christians.
We understand that these kind of conversations can be polarising, but our aim is always to point you to Jesus and challenge you to live against the cultural norm, as Jesus so often teaches.
