These literally just touch on the tip of the
iceberg. There are so many parallels that can be made between
aspects of the Harry Potter series and Christian teaching. There are so many
examples from each of the themes that I mentioned. But not only on Christian
themes, but also just on cultural issues. For example, racism. The house elves
and how they are treated by most wizards and witches versus how Harry and
Dumbledore treat them. They take a more Christian approach to their interaction
with the house elves. There really is so much for our young Christian population
to learn from these books and movies, if parents are willing to take the time
to engage in the process of education. I hope that I have at least opened your
eyes to some of these themes and ideas. Ultimately, you should read the series
and think for yourself. You won't regret it!
