Hey guys, welcome back to the dad's higher podcast. If you're brand new here, welcome glad to have you

We are a bunch of guys from around the world who are trying to figure out what it looks like for us to fall in love with

Jesus and to help our families do the same

We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we take the word of God seriously and we take that role seriously the role of

Husband, father and disciple. So if you fall into that category, we're glad you're here

Even if you don't fall in that category, we're glad you're here and we hope that this is helpful for you as we jump into

October the questions of Halloween always come up and you may have strong thoughts on Halloween

Whether you are celebrating it or you partake in it or you don't or you think nobody should or whatever your

Views are you might have strong thoughts on it. Maybe you don't have any thoughts

Maybe you just kind of done the same thing you've always done. I think today's episode is gonna be really helpful for you

Because we're gonna break down what is Halloween? What's the history of it?

And then as Christians does the Bible say anything about it? Are we allowed to celebrate this?

Maybe you did as a kid and you don't know if you should with your kids or maybe vice versa, whatever it is

We want to kind of break down the history and then just give you some thoughts on as a Christian and as the leader of your home

What does it look like to try to lead your family well on things like this Halloween?

And so my encouragement to you this is gonna be a really helpful episode for you

But my encouragement to you is make it all the way to the end because I have a feeling you're gonna make

Some conclusions at the beginning here. You're like, ah, well, this is where I'm at

But I would suggest that you go all the way to the end because I can assure you that at some point you're gonna feel challenged

So just wait till the whole thing like listen to the whole thing and then try to come up with some thoughts

And the goal is at the end of all this you just have more confidence and you understand what the history of the holiday is

More importantly you understand what the scriptures say and like what is a good theology as you are thinking about leading your home
