Plant the Cross in Cultural Halloween
Bible Text: Exodus 19:5-6, I Peter 2:9, 1 Pet 1:16, Hebrews 12:14, Psalm 116, Philippians 1:19-26 | Teacher: Pastor Chris Alford | Series: Sunday Teaching | It’s been this way even since the Garden: Where there is the sacred, where there is a sacrament, the enemy creates an upside-down version to twist God’s image. There is a historical, biblical, Christian alternative to Halloween. What is it, and how should we observe it? We should keep our deaths before us while planting the cross of Christ right into the middle of cultural Halloween.
