Now I want to hear your thoughts on Last Battle- because it was a game changer for me, too. (Although I was that weird SciFi/Fantasy loving kid who’s favorite book of the Bible growing up was Revelation because of all the imagery and epic elements that reminded me of those novels.)

Lisa, I LOVE this beautiful post so much. You articulated why I love story in ways that I couldn’t figure out but reading this was like a big, “That’s exactly it!” moment. Thank you for writing this. Every week on Instagram I’ve been doing something called ’Middle-earth Monday’ where I share videos, facts and articles relating to Tolkien and I can’t wait to share this with everyone next week!

I am here from Breanne’s Instagram :) I loved that you tied RoP in with exactly where I’m at in motherhood and ministry work! It’s a very small life indeed, but I trust that it matters in ways I may never know this side of history. And I’m so excited to “meet” someone else who loves Surprised by Hope. That was a total game changer for me in the best way!
