STAY SUPERUPDATED WITH KINGDOM SUPERHEROES
Our Manifesto
- We believe collapsing civilizations are the problem for which colonies of heaven are the solution.
- In the darkness we say, “Let there be light.”
- We dare to imagine all things in our good yet broken world restored.
- We assemble.
- We cultivate wisdom in the secret places of the world where heroes gather, not to be noticed, but to map dangerous paths of obedience into the heart of darkness, knowing the cost.
- We fear no evil, not even in the Valley of the Shadow of Death because in death we exhaust evil, putting death to death.
- Resurrection power is not a concept to us, but a reality we have tasted. It tastes like chivalric love triumphant. (Epic Living, 68)
EPIC LIVING
Get the FIRST KINGDOM SUPERHEROES BOOK
by Boyd Morris with a Foreword by John Hunt.
Boyd says in the Preface,
In my quest to live an epic life, during these last couple decades I’ve discovered something amazing. Parallels exist between the epic structure of ancient and modern superhero stories, and the ageless liturgical pattern of prayer and worship, and the Church Year. Finding and celebrating these parallels has kept my life on an epic track and revolutionized my spiritual journey.
Anymore, I can hardly tell the difference between my feel for Jesus and His Church and the intoxication of imagining new worlds to explore, the power of starships and the beauty of symphonies. While these things are, of course, all distinct, as any scribe can tell you, I feel their similitudes. It is this feeling that compelled me to write this book.
Snag yourself a copy and then, please, join the conversation. As Boyd says on page 17,
...this book captures the spirit of the numerous conversations over coffee John and I have had about the parallels between heroic stories and heroic spirituality. We conceived of this book as a way to invite more people to join us in these conversations.

For mortals, fantasy isn’t real but pretend. But fantasy in the hands of faithful immortals is the power of sanctified imagination to fuse thought and action and build worlds in the language of poetry, epic story, ceremony, liturgy, and ritual.
