October 31st is a day we know as Halloween. Christians have been celebrating Halloween for centuries. However, much like Christmas, Halloween is a festival that has been embraced by the wider culture. And because of that, it is a holiday that has really changed over time. It is a time when children dress up and trick or treat. This holiday has also spawned a number of horror films and scary movies. It certainly been influenced by the consumerist culture.

The original purpose of Halloween is much different than what you might think. So, Join me on this Episode of the Methodical Methodist Podcast. Be sure to subscribe, rate, and review!
