So it's no secret that Matt and I have really struggled with what to do about Halloween. We've boycotted it some years and participated other years and we've never been completely satisfied with our stance on it. It can be a touchy issue and it's hard to find a good, biblically based discussion of it that both understands the danger of taking evil too lightly and yet isn't legalistic. We knew there had to be a middle ground, but struggled with what that was.
Thank you Wondergirl for your clear, bold blog post about why you choose to celebrate Halloween. I don't know you, but your stance on this was refreshing and right on. Interested?? Check it out here. It's a bit lengthy, but so very helpful. I think we'll actually buy a pumpkin and carve it this year...

Karen, I am so glad that you posted this. Jeff and I have really been wrestling with this issue. We thought we knew where we stood until we were faced with the prospect of being parents. This will give us some more to think about, but that's a good thing!
P.S. I looked at your ticker and just can not believe that if my due date had been accurate, I would still not know my little man for 22 more days!
I know! I have to say that I'm a wee bit jealous that you've got your babe in arms. We've still got a bit to do though, so it's better this way. Glad you enjoyed the Halloween post.
Hi, Karen. Sorry for not following your posts lately. Hope you and Jonathan are felling well. I like the Halloween strategy.

I'm not sure (didn't check the link) if you're referring to her post from last year or not. LOOOOVED IT. In fact, I'm going to be guest-posting it next week on my blog (w/ permission, of course ;) - yay!
