Ephesians 6:11- “Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.”
For the last two months, the selection of Halloween costumes and decor in stores has been steadily growing.
Yesterday, I was shopping at my local home improvement store and I was appalled at the displays—gruesome and animated, with blood-curdling audio.
Am I imagining it, or are the Halloween decorations this season more massive, expensive, and scary?
Honestly, I cringed and walked past the display as quickly as I could.
I realize kids love to wear costumes and eat candy, but as a Christian, I was relieved when many churches and communities started having Fall Festivals. These promote “non-satanic”costuming and non-violent behavior (games, and so on). What’s more, some of them last year even fostered Harvest/Thanksgiving themes!
I applaud the creation of safe atmospheres that resist the evil influences of this holiday.
