Episode #28 || Fantasy Magic

1 hour 18 minutes

"Fairy tales and magic remind us of the infinite possibilities that lie beyond the walls of the world."

~ G.K. Chesterton

Truly, there is infinitely more to this world than what our physical eyes can see. There is a supernatural power beyond our wildest imaginations, and God's Word is clear when it comes to entertaining powers that don't belong to us (e.g., Exod 22:18; Lev 19:31; Deut 18:10-12; Gal 5:19-21; Rev 21:8).

So, what about the wizards in Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings"?

What about the deep magic in Lewis's "Chronicles of Narnia"?

What about the sorcery in Rowling's "Harry Potter"?

What about the witches in Maguire's "Wicked"?

What about the arcane magic in "Dungeons & Dragons" (D&D)?

What about the dark magic in "Magic: The Gathering" (MTG)?

Adam and Sarah Heim join the conversation as Plundering Leviathan asks the question: "Is there any place for FANTASY MAGIC in Christian entertainment? And, if so, how can we plunder this genre for the glory of Christ?"
