How Wicca and Witchcraft Deceive by Appearing Harmless

from Contending for the Word Q&A · host Doreen Virtue

Wicca and witchcraft are increasingly presented as harmless, empowering, and even healing—especially through social media, pop culture, and so-called "self-care" spirituality. In this episode of Contending for the Word Q&A, Doreen Virtue explains how occult practices disguise spiritual rebellion as freedom, enlightenment, and empowerment. You'll learn: • How Wicca and witchcraft are normalized and marketed today. • Why these practices appeal to the vulnerable and wounded. • The danger of blending biblical language with occult ideas. • Scripture's warning about deception disguised as light (2 Corinthians 11:14). • Why believers must remain rooted in Christ and grounded in God's Word. This is a sober, pastoral warning, especially for parents calling Christians to discernment, biblical clarity, and faithfulness to Christ alone.
