Should Christians enjoy Black Friday?

Another controversial holiday for Christians? Or is it?

There are many good things and not so good things about Black Friday. For who doesn’t like a good bargain … even Christians.

There are however some good reasons that some Christians have expressed concern about the holiday including:

  • we automatically forget about Thanksgiving;
  • we can be tempted to greed or storing up things for ourselves;
  • we can be distracted from the beginning of Christmas celebrations;
  • we may be sending a bad message to those less fortunate than ourselves

You can read a much better explanation of the concerns about Black Friday here, in an article by Megan Bailey, at beliefnet.com. One concern we have about too much debate about Black Friday is that it is very easy for our hearts to slip in to judging others, for what they did or didn’t buy. It is another great example for which Proverbs 4:23 is relevant.

So should you enjoy Black Friday or avoid it? We are sorry to disappoint you but if you came to a site called Christian Funny Pictures expecting to find well grounded Biblical advice on some of life’s big or not so big issues, then you may be looking in the wrong place. Paul Tripp, Pastor and author has a good article about “The Original Black Friday“, which may help in that department (pardon the pun). We are going to stick with what we do best, so here are 11 Christian Funny Pictures about Black Friday.

Please share and enjoy!

Thank God for dirty dishes

We love this picture and the message. It does in some small way invalidate the problem of dirty dishes, as sometimes they can be such hard work, getting to the end of the day with small children, or difficult teenagers, or being left alone to clean up after everyone. But it does show that a different perspective can often help us get through hard things.

Yes, dirty dishes are hard. Yes, perhaps other family members should be helping out. Yes, these type of jobs can often be quite thankless. But persevere. God sees you serving others in the hard time (just make sure your whole life isn’t full of such things, and make sure you enjoyed what was on them!)

God bless

Well that escalated quickly – Christian version

There is a famous meme known as the “Well that escalated quickly” meme. It originated from the movie Anchorman, where Ron Burgundy, played by Will Ferrell, is commenting on a fight that he and his co-workers had with a rival news station earlier in the film. The phrase he actually used was “Boy, that escalated quickly”, however after the film it became instantly popular and went as they say ‘viral’. It has launched a million memes, including these Christian ones. Where the Bible, God, Christians, church signs, or congregations have suddenly got out of hand very quickly.

Please enjoy and share.
