It's finally up. Part II of "Harry Potter and the Charmed Christians":
Scholars have debated the literary merits of J.K. Rowling’s books, but whether high- or low-brow literature, one thing is certain: Harry Potter is a cultural phenomenon that cannot be dismissed. For Christians concerned about the so-called occult aspects of the books, the Christian themes and symbols cannot be ignored.
As a former skeptic who has read the books, I can attest to the powerful Christian-themed elements. From characters’ names to plot formula, the series is replete with references to the salvation and redemption narratives and the unavoidable choice between what is right and what is wrong.
