Description: On Global Wizardry examines pagan spiritual techniques from Brazil, Canada, China, Africa, the US, and from the ancient Gnostics and Canaanites. These diverse practices are all tied to the same religion: One-ism--the worship of creation as a self-contained divine being. Christianity is the only other religion: Two-ism, which worships the Creator, Redeemer and Consummator, distinct from his creation, but reconciled to it through the cross of Jesus Christ. Even in the Church, this essential distinction is not always understood.

Jesus tells us not to pray like the pagans. On Global Wizardry will train you to recognize pagan worship techniques found in films, books, magazines, therapeutic approaches or methods even your Christian friends or Church leaders may suggest for getting close to God. When you've finished this book, you will better understand your culture, your faith and your God.

"...an excellent primer on pagan spirituality.  With rigorous Christian scholarship and sensitive pastoral hearts, the writers equip the church to engage those enslaved in this deadly worldview."
--Mark Driscoll, Pastor, Mars Hill Church, Seattle, WA

"This book will assist pastors, leaders and laymen to grasp and respond to the New Spirituality."
--Harry Reeder, Pastor, Briarwood Church, Birmingham, AL

"On Global Wizardry will surprise, alarm and inform you by revealing the practice of the occult.  It also provides the remedy. ...an important resource for understanding the times."
--William Edgar, Professor of Apologetics, Westminster Theological Seminary, Philidephia, PA

"This book shows how deeply New Age and Eastern thinking has affected our culture.  The writers...desire to see people freed from idolatry and brought into a living relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ."
--Ed Hird, Rector of St. Simon's (Anglican) Church, Vancouver, British Columbia
