SpellBound: The Paranormal Seduction of Today's Kids
by Marcia MontenegroProduct Overview
Have you ever wished there was a book on the occult written from a Christian viewpoint, with suggestions on how to talk about this to your kids or teens? Well, such a book now exists, SpellBound: The Paranormal Seduction of Today's Kids.
Our culture is saturated with the supernatural. TV shows such as
Medium, Charmed, and Lost all have an "other-worldly" theme. Most of
them blur the lines between good and evil. This past year was a "record"
year for Hollywood in the production of films that dealt with the
supernatural/paranormal. While we choose our entertainment, our kids
don't often have the luxury of choosing whether to be exposed to these
things at school.
This book seeks to present a lucid and comprehensive examination of the
paranormal and occult by breaking down the principles of paranormal
practices, giving key points about the practices so that parents can
readily identify them. The book discusses the occult view of
supernatural energy and of good and evil, and how these concepts are
seen in some popular literature and movies. The book also explains the
dangers and gives a biblical basis for concern. Christian parents need
to be equipped to discuss these matters with their children!

Loving Truth Books & Gifts Review
This is a very insightful and useful book for any Christian; particularly
for those Christians who want to gain a deeper understanding about the
supernatural world from a Biblical perspective.
The book is arranged in such a way that you can read it in parts, or readily
refer back to certain sections. Her notes in the back of the book will help
you delve deeper. Marcia Montenegro is clearly well-versed in understanding
occult philosophy and as a former-astrologer, she understands the allure of
the supernatural in ways that will open your eyes. As a Christian myself for
over 15 years, I was alerted to areas in my life where I too have been
seduced by "other-worldly" influences.
The author has done a marvelous job of balancing concern for potential
mental, moral and spiritual dangers in dealing with the supernatural world,
without being an alarmist. What I find particularly helpful about the book
is that the author gives practical advice as to how to communicate openly
and effectively with the teens and preteens in your life.
Marcia Montenegro clearly has a heart for young people and their parents! A
must read!
