How can I redeem Halloween and glorify God in the midst of a pagan culture?
I don't want to miss this golden opportunity to engage people in thoughtful conversation about the holiday and its roots, as well as the historical significance this date has for Christians (three 'amens' for Wittenberg!!!!!!!!!).
Let's pray that the Lord bring opportunities to our doorstep (maybe literally)--opportunities to share the gospel of His Son to a gospel-ignorant society...our society.
So I'm posting the link to a short article that will equip us with enough facts to jump-start us...the strategic conversations will have to come from careful readiness (and the prompting of the Holy Spirit).
Read it--it's really, really interesting and helpful...and you never know when the information will come in handy!
"Sing to the Lord, bless His name; proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day.
Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.
For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods."
Psalm 96:2-4

Seriously...I have so many conversations at work about Halloween and ghosts. Even if I can't maneuver into a full-blown Gospel presentation, it's an opportunity to speak truth unapologetically. Holidays are brilliant for witnessing in the workplace.
