A few years back, I became more interested in Braucherei. Both my grandmothers seemed to know quite a bit about this type of healing. I am almost 70, and of course, remember all the hex marks on barns, when I was younger. It was an uncle on my mother's side and my grandmother on my father's side, that seemed to know the most about this. Later, when I was in my twenties, I worked with a lot of Mennonites and Amish people.... though most of the frowned on this, there still seemed to be some knowledge, there. I even joined the Mennonite Church, for a while (went back to my original Anglican roots / my mother's father's religion and was eventually ordained -- now retired). Recently, I got my dna done and did some family tree research and found out that we have a couple German lineages, in our family, that went back to the Appalachian area. All that to say; Thanks for the video... very informative.

My grandfather practiced. I had a rash on my chin from playing the clarinet. I still have the mental picture of when and how he did this. Although I don't recall the passage, I do remember he used a gold ring. I was to repeat this 3 times a day for 3 days. And yes, the rash disappeared!

I have only recently heard of powwowing. When I did hear about it through a documentary, I was immediately struck by this practice. Thank you for so much information.

Loved this and am now moved to explore my own family ancestry in more depth....as I listened, I recalled that I have my great grandmother's blue velvet bible, written in German and published in Philadelphia in 1892 (after migrating to the US she grew up in NYC/Brooklyn). Her name was Magdalena Stephens. I wonder if she or her ancestors practiced any forms of powwowing. I had recently purchased a book by David Kriebel and look forward to learning more. Thanks for this engaging and informative presentation.

As a (half) proud PA Dutchman from Lebanon (Lepnan), I have traced my ancestory to be from the early central PA settlers. Maiden name was Leibich, farther back was Livering. I WISH I would've asked my Pappy more questions about our culture and folklore etc. I do remember the potato and warts, as even today, there are many old "remedies" that my mother has passed on to me. One thing I do remember vividly is my grandfather was VERY superstitious. Ie never ever open an umbrella in the house, ESPECIALLY black. Throwing salt over right shoulder (I believe) if you spilled some. Potatoes are also used to "draw out' infection like boils. Can you shed any light on why the PA Dutch were so superstitious? Fun little fact which I found really interesting and kind of ironic is the the German (Polish and many others from Scandinavian and European ethnicities) migrated here because Pennsylvania was one of the few places one could have freedom of religion.

My wife's great-grandpa (Terwilliger or Fedder) was said to powwow. The story is that he removed a tumor on a child's neck. And Brenda's 97 year old great aunt remembers calling a woman powwow who stopped her son's nosebleed.

My dad had a wart removed exactly like this by a family member as a kid. My great grandparents practiced pow wowing. My generation knows nothing about this.

I wonder if you can get any of the other books mentioned in this; I know copies of LLF are found everywhere, but I'm curious if there's any copies of "heights and depths" and "the shield" (etc) available translated.

If you did a 23 and me test Norwegian can indicate Norman ancestors bc it’s based on haplogroups and they moved around back then too. It’s the same with danish using the same haplogroups as the Anglo Saxons. I’ve found it worthwhile to combine genetics with surenames. Cheers from a fellow Hoosier

I love and appreciate your video more than words can say. I mean this sincerely ,however, you talk way too fast for your words to have soul-impact. You sound like a fast talking car salesman. That to the side…you’ve helped many seekers including me. God bless you.🙏🏻🕯

Did Jesus Christ, when He was on earth, teach these things? Doesn't the Bible teach that Christians should seek healing by prayer and receive healing by faith?

This is folk Christianity, meaning its the way a specific culture understands and worships Christ. It has worked for our culture for several centuries and is our way of bringing Christ into the world.
