There seems to be a new take on Halloween. It’s no longer all about just the “trick or treat-ing”. As the world comes to embrace and celebrate diversity, we begin to see more and more people from all backgrounds celebrate this tradition. But, the struggle remains in the Christian community.

We wonder, what’s your take? Have you ever really given it a thought? Is it truly harmless to attend the local church festival? What about dressing up as a pumpkin for school or daycare or even work?
Where do you stand?
