Witchcraft or Trad-wife: Which Way, Western Woman?

This week saw a controversy erupt over the temptations that women face as some speakers sounded an alarm about the hidden dangers of the ‘Trad-Wife’ movement. Is ‘Trad-Wife’ something that conservative Christians need to warn against at this time? No, for there are forces that are targeting women that threaten to destroy not only women, but all of society. One such danger is the allure of witchcraft and the occult. In the last few decades, these practices have risen dramatically so that a majority of Americans, and of Christians, now believe and affirm pagan practices. God hates witchcraft, not homemaking. And women left and right are being lured into witchcraft as they recite mantras, buy crystals, and try to manifest a more positive reality. This week we dive into the dangers of modern witchcraft and ask the question, “What’s more dangerous, a lizard or a crocodile?”

In this episode of Theology Applied, the co-hosts of Backwoods Belief join the show to discuss the hatred of Evangelical elites towards the average Christian in the pew.
