 A guide designed to help Christian teens deal with the growing trend of books related to the occult, i.e. Harry Potter, etc. , has recently been released.

The Religion News Service reports that the Catholic Truth Society, the publishing arm of the Roman Catholic Church in England and Wales has released “Wicca and Witchcraft: Understanding the Dangers.” The guide is aimed at helping teenagers deal with 21st century witchcraft, the RNS reported.

The booklet is said to offer advice to parents who find their children showing an interest in Wicca, paganism and the occult.

Apparently the book was written by a former Wiccan who became a Catholic, Elizabeth Dodd.
