It has finally arrived—the latest installment of the Star Wars film saga. For believers hoping to dig deeper into the underlying philosophical and ethical issues engaged in the Star Wars films, a helpful guide will be a new book by Joshua Hays, A True Hope: Jedi Perils and the Way of Jesus (Smyth & Helwys). A life-long Star Wars fan, Hays deals with the worldview on display in the famous films and shows where the Jedi philosophy compares and contrasts with a biblical worldview, considering topics such as postmodernism, depravity, resurrection and relativism. Fans of the movies will find it to be a fascinating and insightful read.
