btw tumblr mutual authors if you ever need proofreading done and don't know who to come to, come to me. I'm pedantic, particular and notice the tiny errors that creep into every book. also typesetting. I love typesetting. but yeah, proofreading. come to me and I can at the very least proofread part of your book free of charge, probably more. also my sister Cathy proofreads for people's theses and stuff but you'd probably have to pay her. she does like PhDs as well as fiction. Cathy's cool.

but yes I am apparently reasonably good at picking up on errors. I'd rather spend time proofreading a book than buy it and find out there are errors. (this is no shade to anyone, just an observation, because I like things to be correct.)

The worst part about reading in a genre where you have low expectations (in this case, Christian historical fiction) is that when a book impresses you, you have no idea if it's actually good or if you're just overly impressed because it was a fraction of a degree better than the usual garbage.

Book Review: Discovering Christian Witchcraft, by Sara Raztresen and Emyle D. Prata

Sara Raztresen is an educator and writer I have been following for a while now, so you bet when i could afford it i pre-ordered her and Mimi's book !

Why did I choose to read this book ? First of all, it is a great introduction to the more mystical side of Christianity, and the more Christian side of Witchcraft. There a a handful of creators who are focused on Christian Witchcraft or Christopaganism, and out of them, Sara is one of my favorite. Her "Where the Gods Left Off" series (which I already read and will comment/review when I have time) is both an incredible insight into different cultures and religions and entities, but also the witness of her personal journey as she explores and meet all of them, and what she learns from it. It's not a sugarcoated exploration, but the experience of a witch who goes out of her comfort zone and deal with the consequences of it, good and bad. This book seems both more in their comfort zone as well as out of it. While focusing on the Christian perspective (with insights from Judaism, different branches of Christianity and cultures that were historically nearby), it also contains an absurd amount of research, references more books and articles than i can count, and present as a final product a fantastic guide, essay and research paper on the different elements that makes Christian Witchcraft today what it is, was and could/should be.

What are the great points of this book? Where should I even start ? 1.The Theory

The Theory is strong in this book. Everything is cross-checked, referenced, sourced, critically analyzed. It is a proper researcher work. (I am not in human sciences, but if i were to compare this book to how STEM scientific theses are built, it is pretty well built, rich, and made understandable for the most part). The book goes deeper than any "beginner-oriented" book I have seen this now. It is, I think, both appropriate for beginners in witchcraft, and anyone who is already pretty well-versed but would like to learn more about the Christian side of it.

2. The passion and analyses

Not just that, but the book also contains beautiful essays, speaking about the role of Christian witches in the modern world, the impact and the wrongs of Christonationalism, the role and goal of Christianity itself. Even for people who are not into witchcraft, I think this book can truly be a mind-opener about how Christians failed their missions, and missed the original meaning of the teachings of Jesus.

You can see as you read how the two writers are attached to the entities they are working with, but also to their cultures and what they learned in their years of practice. The book is nothing short of a labor of love, of passion, and of honest eagerness to share knowledge and passion for the craft ( as well as bit of spite for those refusing to open their eyes to even the most basic logical arguments lol)

3.The Practice

I probably have a harder time being completely objective about this, because i read the book when i had a good handle on most witchcraft basics. I do think though it can add a nice touch to practitioners who already got the basics down and would like to explore a little something new. For brand new beginners, it seems to me that it could be a good book to keep long-term in your practice. it could easily become a staple to come back to regularly to deepen an aspect of your practice, explore a new things, or just relearn older things.

Conclusion: this book is pretty exhaustive for beginners, and a good introductory to medium course for accomplished practitioners who wants to deepen their practice towards Christian Witchcraft. it presents both beginner-friendly and advanced theory, as well as a good beginner exploration of the basics of witchcraft. it is to me now a personal library favorite i will keep and reread for a long time. i would even go as far to say you might consider it a must-have in Christian Witchcraft, but that is of course up to you to decide <3
