    While some teach us to avoid the Halloween season, Paul’s visit to Mars Hill may have left us a clue as to sanctifying the secular for God.

    Sanctifying the Secular Acts 17:15-34 (ESV) My emails filled up this week from my pastor’s newsletters about Halloween. I get the same emails about the Christmas tree and the Easter bunny.

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Jul 16, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,075 views

    Jesus followers are a weird group of people. We don’t live like other people. We don’t have the same priorities or look at life the same way as everyone else. Genuine love always points people to Jesus Christ.

    Let’s just be real here. Jesus followers are weird people. We’re wacked. We say stuff and do things that most people around us find odd, or even dumb. For example, we look for ways to bless the kind of people that others want to avoid. We want to go to prison and love on inmates. ...read more

     | 9,494 views

    Jesus warns us that salvation is by faith in Him and in Him alone. To say no to the Gospel of Christ is to commit the greatest sin known to man.
