Why Should We Keep the Holy Days?
God gave us these special days as gifts! They're not just old traditions—they're opportunities to connect with God and remember His faithfulness throughout history.
They're Biblical
God Himself commanded these holy days in the Bible. Leviticus 23 calls them "the Lord's appointed feasts." Jesus celebrated them too!
They Point to Jesus
Each holy day teaches us something about Jesus! Passover shows His sacrifice, Sukkot shows His presence with us, and more.
They Create Rhythm
Holy days give our lives a sacred rhythm. Instead of living by the world's calendar, we live by God's calendar!
They Bring Joy
God's feasts are celebrations! They're filled with good food, family time, and remembering all the good things God has done.
When we keep these holy days, we're joining thousands of years of believers who have celebrated God's faithfulness. We're saying "yes" to God's invitation to meet with Him in special ways throughout the year!
