What Star Wars Can Teach Us About Faith - Adam Lance Garcia

Order 66 is old news. Coruscant's draped in shadow. And in Adam Lance Garcia's Star Wars Insider tale, "The Failing of the Light," a true believer faces a choice that'll leave you questioning everything. This week, we're diving deep with Adam (the mastermind behind Dex's poignant moment in From A Certain Point of View: Return of the Jedi) to unpack one of the darkest Star Wars short stories we've ever encountered.

Forget Jedi versus Sith. Adam flips the script, plunging us into the heart of the Path of the Open Hand and showing how faith, fear, and trauma can pave the road to radicalization. Why should Star Wars dads care? Because this story is a goldmine for discussing empathy, moral ambiguity, and the civilian cost of war with your kids.

We're talking High Republic echoes, a Legends deep cut involving Synox poison, and conversation starters guaranteed to spark epic kitchen-table debates. What would you do if someone you trusted claimed the Jedi were the bad guys? How do you spot the line between conviction and extremism?
