Witchcraft is enmity against God, godly people and against the Gospel of Christ (Galatians 5:20). Satan has used witchcraft to prevent people from finding holy spirituality in God alone. He uses witchcraft through mediums, horoscopes, and games to entice people away from God (1 Chronicles 10:13). The Holy Scriptures expressly prohibit witchcraft practices because they seek to engage the spiritual world apart from God, it pursues deceptive ways of trying to integrate the material and the spiritual realms (Leviticus 19:26; Deuteronomy 18:10–11).

These moments can cause real, lasting damage, and they are what Aiko Bethea calls "the bullsh*t": bullsh*t that happens because we get misaligned with who we aspire to be. But Aiko Bethea suggests that there is an alternative—a way to reframe “the bullsh*t” as instances that offer us a choice.
