What does one of the most famous comic book heroes in history have in common with the average Christian? You might be surprised! From his transformation into a new creation to his struggles with forgiving those who have hurt him, Spider - Man's story offers a startling parallel to the miraculous and everyday experiences of those who follow Jesus. Inspired by the stories and characters in three of the biggest box - office smashes of all time, The Soul of Spider - Man zooms in beyond the special - effects and big stars to examine the unexpected spiritual lessons spun into the background of the Spider - Man films. Readers will heed the warning against greed when they rewind the tragedy of the Green Goblin in the first Spider - Man, and will understand the importance of humility as they take a second look at the damage caused by Peter Parker's inflated ego in Spider - Man 3. This fast - moving, entertaining take on the spirituality of Spider - Man includes a group discussion guide for film clubs, youth groups, or young adult small groups.
