An Apostate's Guide to Witchcraft

Finding Freedom Through Magic

By: Moss Matthey, Mhara Starling - foreword by

Narrated by: Liam Gerrard

Join Moss Matthey as he recounts his uplifting journey from the confines of a fundamentalist Christian cult to an empowering Pagan coven. Weaving his lived experiences with a gentle introduction to Witchcraft, Moss explores what differentiates Paganism from cults and high-control religions, inviting you to shed oppressive spiritual experiences and find support.

Through his story of self-searching and religious liberation, Moss teaches that spiritual pursuits should be freeing and presents Paganism as one such path. He invites you to dip your toe in the waters of Witchcraft with a sampling of exercises and journal prompts inspired by Welsh and German traditions. A celebration of culture, authenticity, and spiritual recovery, this book will inspire you to question restrictive ideologies and develop a healthy practice of your own.

I wish this book had been around in the 90's/early 00's

As someone who, like the author, left a fundamentalist Christian cult, hearing of his own journey was cathartic. Unless you've been in those types of groups, you don't know what it's like or how it impacts people mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It's isolating, so I am glad someone with that background not only shared their story, but provides guidance on how to move forward and carve out their own spiritual path.

His honesty about his journey

This book spoke to me directly. As someone who has a bachelors In Bible and is now on the Wiccan path, I felt seen that someone had gone through the same kind of manipulation with the god of Abraham. If you grew up a Christian and are questioning, please read this book!
