A Powerful Picture of Salvation
Halloween definitely has its dark side! Thankfully, author Liz Curtis Higgs is a creative Mom who has brought the light of Christ back to this enormously popular secular holiday. Let's listen to this video narration of Liz's delightful children's picture book, The Pumpkin Patch Parable.
A powerful object lesson, I never tire of hearing the Gospel story read aloud, do you?
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life. (John 8:12)
You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. (Matt 5:14-16)
