Should Christians do THIS? (Halloween, Yoga, Date Non-Christians, Drinking & More)
In this episode, we tackle not just the “can I?” questions many Christians wrestle with but the “should I?” — Halloween, yoga, drinking, and more.
Scripture tells us we’re free in Christ (1 Corinthians 6, Romans 14, Galatians 5)… but Scripture also tells us that freedom doesn’t mean everything is beneficial or glorifies God.
We cover questions to ask yourself when it comes to “SHOULD I?”:
Asking if this will stumble someone (Romans 14, 1 Corinthians 8)
Whether it builds up or tears down (1 Corinthians 10:23)
Are YOU convicted? (Romans 14:14)
Freedom vs. sin — not using grace as a cover-up for evil (1 Peter 2:16)
Doing all things for God’s glory (1 Corinthians 10:31)
Then my husband and I share our personal takes:Halloween — Can it be redeemed? How to participate in a way that points to Jesus; Yoga — Is it demonic or sinful?; Drinking — Freedom, conviction, and when it crosses the line; And more!
