Episode Synopsis

Given its pagan roots, some Christians question whether Halloween is an appropriate holiday to celebrate. A recent caller to our program asked to what extent Christians should participate and how to respond to family members who might think differently.While it’s important to be sensitive to a weaker brother and steer clear of anything celebrating witchcraft or evil, does our freedom in Christ allow us to enjoy the candy and costumes?In this episode, I share how Paul’s response to the Corinthians regarding meat sacrificed to idols is an incredibly helpful perspective on enjoying holidays – even those with questionable roots like Halloween!We hope you enjoyed this episode.
