Ep. 132 — Addressing Witchcraft & The Occult from a Biblical Perspective this Halloween with Amy Davison (Mama Bear Apologetics)

With Halloween around the corner, the rise in fascination with witchcraft and the occult becomes all the more noticeable, especially among young girls. In this week’s special episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, host Patti Garibay is joined by Amy Davison of Mama Bear Apologetics to explore how parents can guide their daughters away from the spiritual dangers of witchcraft and toward the freedom found in Christ. 

In today’s culture, witchcraft is often portrayed as innocent fun—whether it’s casting spells, playing with Ouija boards, or following the latest New Age trends. However, Amy shares from her personal experience as a former "almost witch" in her teenage years, revealing the allure and dangers of these practices. Together, Patti and Amy discuss why witchcraft seems appealing to many young girls and how parents can discern between harmless Halloween festivities and spiritually harmful influences. 

Throughout the conversation, Amy unpacks the cultural normalization of witchcraft, its connection to the feminist movement, and how practices like crystals and astrology are being presented as empowering and harmless. She offers practical, Biblical wisdom on how to counter these messages, help girls understand the truth of God's Word, and protect them from the subtle but dangerous influences of the occult. Tune in to learn how to equip your daughters with the tools to navigate this Halloween season and beyond, ensuring their hearts remain rooted in the truth of Scripture.
