If I am being honest with you, it is not you or me who can achieve a new year of better habits and a healthier life. Any eternal success is solely up to the work of Jesus Christ in our hearts for His glory.
If the holidays feel especially heavy this year, our Hope Through the Holidays collection offers Scripture, prayers, and gentle guidance to help you walk with God through your grief. Find comfort for your hurting heart and be reminded that even now, the light of Christ is still shining for you.
May these resources for activities and crafts be platforms to share Jesus’ love with the next generation. God invented fun, so He is not opposed to us enjoying games, being creative, or doing crafts. Everyone is different, but these are some diverse options to incorporate into your holiday season with your loved ones.
How should Christian parents, grandparents, and caregivers approach Halloween? For many families, it’s a fun and lighthearted holiday where kids dress up, laugh with friends, and gather buckets of candy.

So where’s the balance? Is there a way to enjoy the community aspects of Halloween while staying true to your faith? Or is it better to step away entirely?

Our prayer is that as you read through these devotionals, your heart will be stirred toward gratitude, your spirit refreshed, and your joy renewed, not just for Thanksgiving Day, but for every day that follows.
