What is Christian Witchcraft? A Beginner’s Guide to Faith, Magic, and Walking Both Paths
Share
Have you ever felt torn between your love for Jesus and your pull toward the old ways—herbs, moon phases, and sacred rituals? You’re not alone. As a Christian witch, I’ve learned that faith and magic don’t have to be separate. They can weave together beautifully into a life filled with purpose, blessing, and connection. In this post, I’ll share what Christian Witchcraft really is, clear up some of the biggest misconceptions, and tell you a bit about my own path as a believer and a practitioner of sacred rituals.
🌿 Clearing Up Common Myths
When people hear the term Christian Witchcraft, they often picture something dark or contradictory. But the truth is far more beautiful—and far less sinister—than many assume. Here are a few of the biggest misconceptions:
Myth 1: You Can’t Love Jesus and Practice Magic
The word witchcraft has been twisted over centuries. At its core, it simply means working with creation—herbs, intention, energy, and prayer—to bring about blessing and healing. Many of us feel deeply rooted in our Christian faith and honor Jesus as our guide and teacher while embracing practices that connect us to the Divine in all things.
Myth 2: Christian Witches Worship False Gods
Christian witches don’t necessarily follow pagan deities. For many of us, God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit are at the center of everything we do. The rituals and tools are simply ways to deepen that relationship, not replace it.
Myth 3: Magic is Always About Spells and Control
Most of the time, what we call magic is simply intentional living: prayer, blessing, gratitude, and using the gifts of nature to support our well-being.
🌙 My Story
My name is Emily Wilde, and for years, I felt torn. I loved the Bible and my relationship with Christ, but I was also drawn to the moon, the quiet power of herbs, and the ancient ways our ancestors honored the sacred.
For a long time, I thought I had to choose. But through prayer and study, I realized I could bring both parts of myself together—faith and magic in harmony.
Wild Thyme Witch was born from that journey. This shop and community are here to remind you that you don’t have to fit in a box. You can honor your Christian faith and still trust your intuition, work with the tools God placed in creation, and celebrate the beauty of ritual.
✨ How You Can Start Walking This Path
If you feel called to blend your faith with a deeper connection to creation, here are a few simple ways to begin:
🌿 Start Small
Light a candle while you pray. Place a stone on your desk to remind you of God’s strength. Begin noticing the moon’s phases as a reflection of life’s seasons.
📖 Stay Rooted in Scripture
Christian witchcraft doesn’t abandon the Bible—it embraces it. Look for verses that speak of wisdom, stewardship of the earth, and the power of blessing.
🕯️ Create Sacred Space
Set aside a corner of your home for reflection and prayer. Add items that feel meaningful: a cross, a candle, an herb bundle, or a favorite verse.
💛 Trust Your Journey
There’s no single right way to walk this path. Let the Holy Spirit guide you, and remember—your faith is yours to cultivate.
