I recently read a blog from Chris Summerfield about how he sees his spiritual walk less like the Matrix (one often used because of the duality of the universe - spiritual vs. physical) and more like Fight Club:
”There is no overarching vampire or matrix that we need to discover and fight, rather the evil is being perpetrated by us and the systems that we comply with. In Fight Club Tyler Durden is the Christ like figure who walks into Jacks life. Tyler forces Jack to face the current reality of his world, the injustice, the love of money, the obsession of the trivial and to liberate him, an “heir of oppression” (my term) from that.”
So it got me thinking. What movie does your spiritual walk of faith look most like?
Mine? Lord of the Rings. Often times it feels like there’s only a small fellowship that keeps the light going. We do our best beyond insurmountable odds, in the hope that our King will return.
So what about you?

sometimes it’s like the movie “Kingdom of Heaven” but then other times it’s like “The Return of the KIng” especially when it seems that doing what is right reaching the lost and spreading the Good News is such an overwhelming task and going against the flow of the rest of the world…
In so many ways my life feels like a hybrid of “Lord of the Rings”, “The Patriot” and “The Last of the Mohecans”. Sometimes a small fellowship struggling to accomplish an overwhelming cause; sometimes the last one standing, because every onelse seems to have been slain on the way; and sometimes just another barbarian trying to survive.
