The History, Mystery, and Hope of Halloween - Season 4 Episode 23

Ready to journey back in time and explore the origins and traditions of Halloween? From ancient Celtic festivals and bonfires to costumes and trick-or-treating, we unravel the rich tapestry of this controversial holiday. We take a detour to Ireland and Scotland, exploring unique customs like pumpkin carving and trick-or-treating. But we won't stop at the festive frolics; Halloween, after all, is also about facing fears.

Fear, an emotion we all grapple with in different measures, takes center stage as we delve into personal experiences of battling anxieties. Lean in as we share how faith and scripture can help us rise above fear, and how you too can find strength in them. Discover the themes of my book "Facelift: Embracing Hope Through Your Heartaches", a testament to resilience and hope. Whether you're a Halloween enthusiast or someone in need of faith-fueled courage, there's plenty of encouragement, wisdom, and insights to be gleaned from this episode.
