Pagans are another religious group that Christians have fears about and associate with spiritual evil. In this podcast we have a conversation with David Dashifen Kees, a Pagan and an initiate priest in the Firefly House, an organization for Wiccans, witches, magic workers, and other Pagans in the Washington DC area. David and I discuss Paganism and evangelical Christianity, including his journey to Paganism and a brief sketch of what it entails. Also discussed are various stereotypes, the challenges of the significance of evangelism to evangelical identity and practice, and how this can complicate the Christian-Pagan relationship. For more on Paganism see Christine Hoff Kraemer’s Seeking the Mystery: An Introduction to Pagan Theologies (Patheos Press, 2013), and the Pagan Portal at Patheos.
