The Mandalorian, Law and Love

CataVision

Star Wars is no stranger to religious themes, and The Mandalorian is no exception. What happens when Mando's strict code contradicts itself? Will he choose law or love? The Mandalorian's way of mercy illustrates for us Jesus' own injunction to choose mercy over sacrifice. This is a teaching with real-world consequences!

During this series, we’ve been exploring the three temptations using Dostoyevsky’s “The Grand Inquisitor”.

This Sunday, we’re going to switch things up. I’m going to share some of my own fiction that I’ve used to reflect on the nature of Jesus third test.

What did it mean that Satan told Jesus to worship him? How could Satan offer up the kingdoms of the world?

Questions to consider… until we gather on Sunday. See you then!

 

Join us Sunday as we explore what it takes to rule the world – and why we should fail that test.
