The Host Within: Embracing Divine Purpose and Connection
In the realm of science fiction, few narratives capture the essence of the soul like "The Host" (2013). This intriguing movie weaves themes of identity, purpose, and connection. What if these themes drew parallels with biblical principles, providing insights into our spiritual journey?
Identity and the Search for Self
In "The Host," the protagonist, Melanie Stryder, shares her body with an alien soul, Wanderer. This dual existence explores questions of identity and self-discovery, echoing the biblical theme of finding our true identity in Christ.
"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them." — Ephesians 2:10

Reflection: How often do we struggle with our identity, feeling torn between who we are and who we aspire to be?
-
Biblical Insight: Our identity is not rooted in external circumstances but in our Creator. In Christ, we are made new, set apart for a unique purpose designed by God.
Purpose and Divine Calling
Wanderer’s journey is one of purpose—an exploration of existence beyond mere survival. Similarly, the Bible calls us to recognize and embrace our divine purpose.
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose." — Romans
