Fold space and travel from "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away" to the planet Krypton, from Trantor to Terminus, and back to the scorched sky of Earth using the spice mélange.

Did you realize that at the heart of Star Wars is a Virgin Birth? Dune's Jewish Messiah? Is there a Holy Family in Superman? In The Matrix, is there a Jesus and a Judas? And Asimov's foundation is the Catholic Church?

At the heart of the Monomyth is not another myth or a nice coincidence, but a truth—Jesus Christ's existence.
