Although Halloween is behind us, it follows Edwin. Which is tough, because he does NOT enjoy horror movies. Lucky for us, we have this podcast! We are headed to the suburbs of Detroit to watch the 2014's It Follows. The movie is a dreadful, tense slow burn that takes a silly-sounding premise and delivers a compelling variation of the genre that sticks in your psyche long after the credits roll (at least in our opinion). So fire up your clamshell e-readers, line the pool with retro appliances, and put on some comfy walking shoes to join us for a modern horror classic. Learn more about your ad choices.

Halloween is enjoyed by people of all ages, but few get a bigger kick out of the holiday than children. There are costumes to be worn, time spent with friends and the opportunity to collect free candy and other treats. Although Halloween can be a fun time, the Children's Safety Network warns that it's also a time when accidents can happen. According to the CSN, the most dangerous day for child pedestrians is Halloween, with two times as many child pedestrians dying on Halloween compared to other days. It is essential to prioritize safety on Halloween, and following these guidelines...Article Link

Bob shows from the Bible that God allows His people use of pagan names, rather than the Hebrew names, for the months of the year, and pagan names for godly people instead of their biblical names. Bob also show that Jesus went to Jerusalem for a non-biblical religious feast, and that the Scriptures co-opt pagan philosophical concepts. Also, the Bible teaches that God allows Christians even to eat meat sacrificed to idols, and those who are discerning and even more spiritually mature than others can even go to, and eat in, an idol's temple, including obviously, eating the food that had just been offered to a false god in that very temple. And finally, we see that extra-biblical regulations may have a superficial appearance of wisdom, but that they are counterproductive, and the sin of the flesh that they cater to does more harm and is more spiritually destructive than the alleged dangers that they are designed to prevent.

But how about Halloween? In Ephesians 5:11, the Apostle Paul instructs believers to, "have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness..." So, doesn't that tell us Christians that we should not allow our children to go trick-or-treating? No. That passage, as the context and various Bible commenatries attest, specifically refers to sexual immorality. Note the context starting with Ephesians 5:3 through verse 12: 3 But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness... These two latter words have spheres of meaning that include sexual immorality; in this continuing context, Paul uses these words to make the warning against fornication emphatic; to covet is to lust; to be unclean in this context has nothing to do with the ceremonial cleansing rituals of Israel's Mosaic Law, but here it means to be sexually immoral ...let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; 4 neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting [each of these refer to sexually immoral behavior and talk], which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. 5 For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man [again, in context, both of these refer to sexual immorality], who is an idolater has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. Paul contrasts what is fitting for saints with the filthiness of unbelievers (i.e., idolaters). And then continues... 6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. 7 Therefore do not be partakers with them. 8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth),10 finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. 11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. 12 For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. Not always, but typically, sexually immoral behavior is committed behind closed doors, in secret. What is shameful is not a girl dressed like a princess or a boy dressed up as a #2 pencil, and walking around on Halloween getting candy from neighbors. What is shameful, in this context, and done in secret, is what is referfed to here as "works of darkness", is fornication and all forms of sexual immorality. When a national Christian ministry claimed that you "make light of evil" if you go trick-or-treating, and wrote that Christians should "skip Halloween and remember Reformation Day. And that... 502 years ago, sometime near October 31, a baby named John Calvin was conceived..." Huh? Conceived? It is so easy to replace God's concerns with man's concerns. The Bible warns us of true evil. Yet if we take verses about hats, and oxen, and water (for example) and we wrongly assume that they are primarily about oxen, and hats, and water, then we will overlook God's real warnings. The opportunity cost of legalism is that, to the extent that we have reduced our Christianity to a set of rules, to that extent we have diminished our relationship with God. And legalism cannot sustain us in our Christian walk. Although Halloween has long been overtly mixed up with occult-like practices, this day also has a long Christian history. Even that history, however, is sadly mixed up with false doctrine regarding recently departed souls. Halloween, that is, the hallowed eve, was the night before All Saints Day, which was introduced into the Christian calendar in the year 609 A.D. and moved to November 1st in 835 A.D. Shortly after 1000 A.D., the following day, Nov. 2nd, became the official date for All Souls Day, which had already been celebrated for more than a century. Regarding the date of October 31st, from its earliest days, the church has had vigils on the night before its major feasts (like Christmas and Resurrection Day/Easter). Thus Hallowed-Eve began, with these days designated for praying for those who had died recently (which practice follows from false doctrine and confusion regarding what happens to a person after death). As with funerals, criers dressed in black would walk through town. Starting more than 500 years ago, Christians in many European countries would bake and share “soul cakes” to encourage prayer for the departed. This may be the origin of trick-or-treating, when the poor and children would go door-to-door collecting soul cakes, a practice referenced in the popular culture of 1593 in Act 2, Scene 1 of The Two Gentlemen of Verona by Shakespeare. The wearing of costumes may trace to the then current superstition of trying to escape notice of departed souls, and scholarly research has suggested that the jack-o'-lantern may have represented the souls of the dearly departed. Dressing children in innocent costumes and letting them walk around collecting candy from neighbors is not the equivalent of participating in the works of darkness, worshiping Satan, or any other such horror. Sometimes, the cure is worse than the disease. God gives tremendous latitude, within moral and spiritual boundaries, to parents regarding how they raise their children. So it should go without saying that, although there is risk, of course it is fine for parents to avoid Halloween, the Wizard of Oz, etc. Their children will make their own judgments about whether mom and dad were actually protecting them from evil, or not. Godly parents keep their children away from so many inherent evils in our society that we effectively say "no" a thousand times over. Wisdom therefore seems to suggest a rule of thumb that when God doesn't say "No" we don't need to say "no."
Hey Boo's and Ghouls! Welcome to our last episode before Halloween!! We are ending our spooky-season with lots of fun plans and costume changes for the weekend.

Today, I'm talking about the topic I usually get the most pushback from on social media – Halloween. Although Halloween typically brings around candy and costumes, it can raise many questions for Christians.Should we allow our kids to dress up? Should we hand out candy?

Halloween has become a big business, with retail sales expected to exceed billion this year. It is not a “holiday” so much as it is a major commercial event in the United States. Even as the event continues to grow, it also gets more complicated. In fact, there are reports of a school near Seattle that has canceled Halloween celebrations because of said “complications.” Expect that others may choose to follow suit, just as with Christmas. Some schools ban any celebration with Christian roots. At best, they may allow a milquetoast “winter celebration” instead of Christmas. Although Halloween used...Article Link

If you plan on selling your home this fall, here are a few tips that will help you sell quickly and for top dollar. Temperatures are dropping, leaves are changing color, and pumpkin spice everything has taken over the world. With fall color and produce so prominent this time of year, you might be tempted to load up your home with an abundance of both, but if you’re a home seller, a little discretion goes a long way. With that in mind, here are a few tips that will help you maximize your home sale this fall. First, pay attention to your curb appeal. Too many fall decorations will take the focus off your home and its best features, but a few tasteful accents can create an inviting setting and make it feel fresh. You also want to make sure fall leaves haven’t taken a toll on your yard. Buyers may understand if your yard is unkempt—they’re living in the same reality—but that doesn’t mean it will make a good impression. “You may love the idea of blood and guts and skeletons rising from your yard, but will buyers be amused or afraid?” Second, go easy on the gore. Although Halloween has passed, it’s still worth keeping in mind if you plan on selling your home next year. You may love the idea of blood and guts and skeletons rising from your yard, but will buyers be amused or afraid? Anything that has the potential to turn them off is a big no-no when listing your house. Sticking to safe decor choices will help you appeal to the masses. Next, let in some light. It’s always a good idea to open the blinds and make sure all your windows are sparkling clean when selling your home, but now that the days are shorter, you need to maximize the natural light in your home. This will make it look bigger. Lastly, make sure the space is inviting. As the weather cools down, a warm and cozy atmosphere will give buyers a pleasant and comfortable feeling. Use plush throws on the couches and beds, and add some fall-accented pillows for the couches and chairs. If you have any more questions about how to sell your home in this or any other season, don’t hesitate to give us a call or send us an email. We’re here to help you move with confidence.
