STAR WARS: A Spiritual Journey

Karl LaClair, Protestant Chaplain, Adam Reynolds, Blue Ocean Faith Chaplain

Enrollment: Advanced sign-up appreciated (but not required)
Limited to 20 participants
Attendance: Participants welcome at individual sessions

Have you ever found yourself swept up in a galaxy far, far away with a sense of wonder and amazement at the possibility of living a truly heroic life?  Have you ever wondered if our fascination with heroic journeys might mean we are destined to someday embark on our own epic life journey?  

In this series we will be examine the quintessential mythology of our generation to see what we can learn about living a life of heroic purpose. We’ll focus on the hero’s journey of Luke Skywalker from Star Wars and how his story is one of personal and spiritual growth.  We will look at clips from Star Wars Episodes IV, V, and VI and key scenes where we see Luke struggle and grow in his own epic spiritual journey.  We’ll explore how the archetypal spiritual journey of Luke Skywalker can inspire our own personal and spiritual growth. 

Whether you’ve seen Star Wars a million times or zero times, anyone is welcome at this series, which will explore the impact of a hero’s spiritual journey and how it can speak to us in our own lives.

Plus FREE FOOD - A feast fit for a Wookie! (or an Ewok)

Hosted by Karl and Adam (<--- These ARE the droids you're looking for.)
