Jesus, Candy, and the Creepy Stuff: Our Unfiltered Talk on Halloween // 7

CHRISTIAN MOTHERHOOD: The REAL Conversation | Honest conversations about faith, family, & marriage, Christian Women Podcast, Christian Wife, Biblical Parenting

Is Halloween harmless fun or a doorway to darkness? Elyse (AUS) and Michelle (USA) share candid childhood stories, current convictions, and practical ways to guard little hearts while keeping family peace—without shaming other parents. Unfiltered stories. Unapologetic faith. Real motherhood.

3 Key Takeaways

• Discernment over default: Take Halloween (and media choices) to the Lord; let the Holy Spirit shape your family’s convictions—and feel free to change as He leads.

• Guard little eyes: Be mindful of what enters your home and kids’ imaginations; use post-movie chats to process themes and choices together.

• Offer bright alternatives: Consider church “light nights,” Reformation Day fun, dress-up without the dark, or a family night out to sidestep scary content.
