For 10% off your first month, use the link, http://www.faithfulcounseling.com/gospelsimplicityThe Lord of the Rings is one of the most popular series (epics?) of all time. With unforgettable characters and an enthralling heroes journey, its popularity is well-deserved. But is it nothing more than guilty pleasure? Should Christians busy themselves with more important things than reading about Hobbits? In this video, I'm joined by Orthodox priest and Tolkien enthusiast, Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick, to talk all things LOTR. We cover everything from his favorite scene to his take on Rings of Power, as well as how the Lord of the Rings can help you read the Bible better. You won't want to miss it. Thankss to Christian Ministry EDU for sponsoring this video.
