Heroes Give Us Courage
October 16, 2022 | 9:00 am & 11:00 am
Today’s Topic:
New Member Ceremony Today.
Mythologist Joseph Campbell said that anyone can take the hero’s journey but not everyone does, because the hero’s journey is about the courage to seek the depths. The hero follows the call to adventure, finds mentors and allies, confronts the threshold guardians, enters the dark forest, and wins a victory that involves bringing back a boon to the community. What are the stories of heroes, contemporary or ancient, that give us courage?
