In a spiritual world of quick fixes and vague emotion, is it crazy to believe there is still a place for insights based on simple, basic, theological understanding. I believe it is worth exploring.

A Touch of Humor - Extortion
Is trick or treating just good clean fun? How should we approach it?
Yeah, I think that Christians sometimes are sometimes unnecessarily fearful about Halloween. Instead of using it to teach our kids we give it opportunity to instill fear in them.
Perhaps as an opportunity to interact with your children and the kids in the neighborhood?
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good point to me. Something that should at least go into any decision.

ReplyDeleteUnfortunately that is all to frequently true.
DeleteWhen I had young kids I remember that there was a lot of unnecessary demon talk around this time of the year.
ReplyDeleteI find there can be. I am more afraid of demons when they are hidden and concealed, then when they are openly spoken of.
DeleteWise insight Mike.
