What is Wicca ?

Home > Pastor's Blog > What is Wicca ?

On Wednesday Night, September 11th, we will discuss the Wiccan Religion. One of our church members has some family members who practice Wicca and has asked us to discuss this topic and offer some suggestions on how to share the Gospel of Christ with Wiccans.

According to History.com, “Wicca is a modern-day, nature-based pagan religion. Though rituals and practices vary among people who identify as Wiccan, most observations … include holidays centered around phases of the moon; solar equinoxes and solstices; elements such as fire, water, earth and air … witchcraft … magic… and the honoring of a male god and a female goddess.”

Wikipedia reports “The two most recent American Religious Identification Surveys declare Wicca, one form of paganism, as the fastest growing spiritual identification in America”. Since the religion appears to be on the rise especially among American youth, we should be ready to discuss it with our children.

As we prepare to study this topic, please answer the following question:
