For your reading enjoyment, here is my post from Coffee With Kenobi that was published a few weeks ago.
In my first regular post, let’s just get this out there. My favorite
character is Luke. In an age where many are rooting for the underdog
and cheering for the peripheral characters, I am a fan of the New Hope
to the bitter end. There is just something about his life, his journey
and his lineage that calls to me. And there is something that calls me
out of myself – out of my comfortable world to something greater.
This calling is innate in all of us. It calls us from our childish
states to a greater maturity. Luke heard this call and left his home in
order to fulfill his greater purpose as the emerging heir to the Jedi.
