Southside Baptist Holds Harvest Fest

Halloween is here and it is ripe with fear in both history and theater. We accept fear as a universal human emotion. We watch horror movies, go to haunted houses, and even dress out in scary costumes to contain our fears. This may be why Halloween is a well embraced global event. Halloween draws out our fears and allows us to experience them in controlled ways. Fear is not fundamentally harmful. It’s a biological safeguard that is fine-tuned to keep us alive. When functioning properly, fear helps us avoid physical harm, make cautious decisions, and respond quickly in emergencies.
