Like a city whose walls are broken through is a person who lacks self-control. - Proverbs 25:28

1. To Halloween or not to Halloween… Let’s confront the debate. 2. Romans 14 describes how Christians should relate to each other on this type of thing: Do not judge each other. Do not cause each other to stumble. 3. Some Christians celebrate Halloween fully and see it as an opportunity for community and witness. 4. Some Christians abstain from Halloween entirely and redirect their family toward alternatives. 5. Some Christians participate selectively… the candy and the community without the horror themes. 6. Whatever you do tonight do it with a clear conscience before God and genuine love for your neighbor. 7. Be kind to the people in your church who land differently than you on this one. The unity of the body is worth more than winning the Halloween argument.
