What Is Gleanings?

At Christianity Today, we’re constantly tracking important developments in the church and the world. Often we use our network of reporters around the world (and for that, visit our main site). But we also monitor other news outlets, bloggers, newsmakers’ social media feeds, and countless other information streams. Gleanings compiles the most urgent and interesting items we’ve found, explains why you need to know about them, and gives you the background you need to understand them. It’s our snapshot of what God is doing in the world, hour by hour.

Halloween Candy Alternative

Beliefnet ranks the top 10 religious candy products.

Tired of handing out the unoriginal "fun-size" Snickers bars? Look no further.

Sweets with Soul. Looking for a religious alternative to traditional Halloween candy? Beliefnet's panel of experts spent hours tasting and analyzing several spiritually-minded sweets, so you don't have to.

My favorite is the Noah's Ark Gummi Animals: "Standard gummi fare in a variety of flavors, not too tart, not too sweet. We presume we should eat the animals in pairs."

If this inspires you, I hope you enjoy a religiously sugar-filled day.

Why put spiritually-minded sugar in the kids' Halloween bags when we give them plenty of spiritually-minded saccharine in their Sunday morning worship music?
