I have a new post up at the Living Lutheran site. It looks at the political race, at the latest Star Wars movie, and what those yearnings might tell the Church.
Here are some quotes to whet your appetite:
"Oddly, this [story about politics] made me think about the release of the latest “Star Wars” movie where we also see people in need of a savior, people willing to take huge risks to be part of a quest that’s bigger than themselves – the outlines of which they only dimly perceive. In many cases the characters face very long odds, an almost impossible mission, and yet, the community they create is one that makes it worthwhile."
"But it’s not just those characters in the movie – it’s also about those of us who flocked to see the movie the week it opened."
"What can churches learn from the popular culture that surrounds us?"
