Good evening brothers and sisters in the Lord and fellow Jedi. I came across this order by hearing from my friend Todd from RJK. I have been a Christian since I was 6 years old and am always looking for ways to serve Jesus. I was baptized two years ago. I think that being a Jedi is an excellent way to serve Jesus and benefit the world and improve ourselves.
God Bless,
May the Force be with you

1. What do you think it means to follow the Jedi Way?

I think that following the Jedi Way means to improve ourselves, our faith, and the world around us. It means to go out of the norm for society and think of others, rather than just ourselves.

2. In your own words, define the Force. What is it? How did it orignate? How does it work?

The Force is pure energy and power. It is light and dark. God created it to give humans abilities we might find supernatural, and to serve creation with. However, with the entry of sin, it was tainted. The dark side of the Force can be used as witchcraft for dark purposes. The Force can be accessed through meditation, faith, and prayer.

Assignment 2
I have just held the Horse Stance for 5 minutes. I will continue to work on it to see if I can hold it longer.

I meditated for about 10 or 15 minutes last night. I tried the Jesus Prayer meditation for the first time. I felt relaxed, calm, and at peace. I felt the beauty of the moment and of God's creation. I felt the Holy Spirit coming into me and the Force flowing in me.
