Great Comment!
Thank you for your comment. I mentioned amulets and crystals from Etsy as examples. There are more influences, like the ones you mentioned, that, to varying degrees, do illustrate the movement in our culture that I was describing. Christians need to prayerfully consider how they interact with the culture in which they live.
I do not believe this necessitates complete abstinence from culture, but we need to be thoughtful with all forms of media. Although I am not a fan of Disney, I would be okay with Christians watching most Disney movies with discerning eyes. We need to be thoughtful about the philosophies communicated in these movies. The content is important, but we must also evaluate the philosophies that undergird these movies.
As for Wicked, I haven't seen the production. I do not think having witches in a narrative is necessarily wrong, but, if it communicates that witchcraft is a good thing, the Christian must be aware of this and look to scripture for instruction.
Again, helpful comment. Thank you!
