It's harvest season or autumn or fall. Whichever you prefer, the time of year that many go out into the communities and trick or treat and dress up in costumes.

Is it "Christianlike" to engage?

Do we hold to traditions or what are our traditions when it comes to these pagan holidays and rituals.

This week the Anchormen get together and talk about what Halloween means to them and look at what scripture may say about the day.

Ephesians 5:11

Romans 14:5-6

1 John 1:5

1 Peter 5:8

2 Corinthians 11:14

Isaiah 8:19-20

Just a few scriptures that may not mention "Halloween" specifically but check the origins and early background of the day and you may be surprised at what you find.

Let's be the light of the world this season.

God Bless you all.

ARE WE ALL SEEKING APPROVAL?

In today's culture as in many years in the past, we find ourselves always seeking approval from somebody or some way.

From spouses, to school, to work, to our coaches, coworkers and now, social media. That's a battle we will never win or overcome.

The good news is, Our approval does not have to be a man made or self made approval.

Our approval comes from the God who created us and loves us as we are.

Todd, John and Randy discuss our pasta and who we did seek or still may be seeking approval from people. We find that there are many men and women in our churches that are even seeking approval at our churches as well.

Join us as we unwrap the struggles we face trying to win approval in all the wrong places.

Thank you Randy Wright for joining the Anchormen today to discuss our approval rating.

God's not through with us yet!

How is God using you in other's lives?

Is He guiding you to plant seeds in your neighbors, friends, co-workers. Even in your family?

Wherever we go we are planting seeds. By our words, our actions and our behaviors when we come up on hard times.

When our brothers and sisters are struggling, we are planting seeds of encouragement and the faithfulness of God when we tell others what God has done for us.

God is with us all the time, so when we are with others, are we showing Christ in us? If we are, that's when we are planting seeds. Showing others Christ in us.

Jim Cross sits at the table with us to share his stories of how Jesus has worked in and through him even when he was a kid in elementary school.

Join us for part two in our talk about planting seeds to a growing relationship with Jesus.
