Have Your Own Star Trek Holy Week!

Picture
March 22nd, 2013
You may recall my Personal Log regarding my own Star Trek Holy Week last year. This year, I thought I’d encourage you to join me on the journey!
I’ve done a lot of work with Star Trek over the last five years of research, writing and speaking, but few things have been as compelling for me as watching the gospel unfold in amazing, surprising ways in Star Trek II, III and IV.

Unexpectedly discovering how rich the “accidental” symbolism of these films is made for a totally unplanned and beautiful Holy Week leading up to Easter for me last year. Now that we have audio commentaries for all these films, I can share what I discovered on the journey with you!

I’ll be going through the films and commentaries myself and blogging devotional thoughts throughout the week. Here’s the schedule of events:
Palm Sunday

Watch Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Our commentary covers the Director’s Edition of the film. If you don’t have the Director’s Edition, you can download it on iTunes or buy theDirector’s Edition DVD.
Watch Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan with the UCP Audio Commentary. I’ll be posting my devotional blog that day, so you can read that as well, or do the commentary on Sunday and the blog on Monday if you like.
Watch Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. (Or watch it with the UCP Audio Commentary.)
Watch Star Trek III: The Search for Spock with the UCP Audio Commentary. Follow with the devotional blog post. (Or just read the blog post.)
Watch Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. (Or watch it with the UCP Audio Commentary.)
Watch Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home with the UCP Audio Commentary. Follow with the devotional blog post. (Or just read the blog post.)
Rest. Reflect. Pray. Fast. Prepare to celebrate the Resurrection of Christ.
I hope this Star Trek Holy Week is a beautiful, life-giving one for you. Maybe you’ll want to invite some geeky/Trekkie friends to join you. Feel free to use the comments sections of the devotional blog posts to share your thoughts and prayers. I’m looking forward to sharing this time with you!
