Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Halloween, and you can likely think of a few more holidays we celebrate as Americans that have nothing to do with Christianity. Is there any harm in participating in these? As Pastor Mark will point out in today’s message, as long as they don’t become idolatrous or seen as a requirement for faith, it’s not wrong to take part in these kinds of things. As we’ll find in today’s passage from the book of Acts, the Apostle Peter struggled to separate Jewish rituals and rules from his faith. It was fine for him to follow those convictions for himself, as long as he didn’t place that burden on others.
