SUMMARY:My Life with the Jedi: The Spirituality of Star Wars - An Author-Led Book Study with Wine & Cheese (In-Person Program)
DESCRIPTION:Star Wars isn’t all laser swords and space wizards; at the heart of this global franchise is a call to discern between forces of light and dark. This is familiar language to anyone engaged in a spiritual journey. St. Ignatius of Loyola\, a Catholic soldier-turned-mystic saint\, developed a whole spiritual system dedicated to ferreting out the dark side in favor of the light. Nearly 500 years later\, the spirituality that bears his name is just as relevant to our lives. \nIn My Life with the Jedi: The Spirituality of Star Wars\, award-winning author\, and this year’s  speaker at our Well Said Speaker Series event\, Eric A. Clayton brings the stories of Star Wars into dialogue with Ignatian spiritualty\, inviting readers to reflect on their own struggles\, decisions\, vocations and\, ultimately\, the constant call to discover new hope. Join us for a relaxing summer evening of wine\, cheese\, and engaging study as Eric guides us in an intimate discussion through key themes from his book\, inviting us to reflect together\, share our own spiritual journeys\, and grow as a community along the way. \nDATE: Sunday\, July 21\, 2024 \nTIME: 6:30 – 8:30 PM \nPROGRAM COST: $35 \nTO PURCHASE THE BOOK:  Click here to purchase Eric’s Book from Amazon or call your favorite local bookseller to order. \nLOCATION: Well for the Journey – 120 W.
