SRR 18 Halloween, Harvest Festivals, Reformation Day & “Holy Days”
Carlos and Tim discuss whether Christians should celebrate Halloween, Harvest Festivals, and their impact on children; Satanism and paganism in our society and other holidays; and Reformation Day. Our position is the Biblical principle of balance without compromise, to be in the world but not of it. We also answer objections to those who don’t think it’s wrong to participate in Halloween or “Christian” alternatives.
