Harry Potter has caused controversy in the Christian community for almost three decades, but why?

This deep dive is based on my own experience as a reader and accompanied by research done by Marian A. Jacobs in On Magic & Miracles: A Theological Guide to Discerning Fictional Magic, reviewed in episode 14.

This episode is for anyone who has worried that the Harry Potter series might lead them or their children into occult practices.
