Origins & Ordinances: A Biblical Examination of Holidays, Pagan Roots, and Christian Authority
Are today's holidays innocent traditions... or leftovers from ancient spiritual ideas God never authorized?
Most Christians celebrate without ever asking the one question that matters most: What does Scripture actually say?
In a culture driven by the calendar, this bold, Bible-only examination cuts through assumptions, folklore, and religious tradition to uncover the true origins of Christmas, Easter, Halloween, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, New Year's, and more. Written from a clear Church of Christ perspective, this book explores whether these observances are simply cultural, spiritually neutral, or quietly conflicting with God's will.
With calm, thoughtful clarity, you'll learn:
Which holiday practices have pagan roots-and which ones don't.
How to separate cultural customs from unauthorized religious acts.
What the New Testament actually teaches about days, seasons, and rituals.
How to make decisions based on conscience without judging others.
Where the church must stand firm-and where individual liberty applies.
If you've ever wanted to understand your faith in a deeper way-or simply desire to serve God without confusion-this book will give you confidence, clarity, and peace.
Truth does not fear examination.
And when we become people of the Book in a calendar-driven world, we learn to follow Scripture-not seasons.
