What I think about The Lord of the Rings

||| Back to The Lord of the Rings articles ||| Links ||| Go back to the beginning! |||

 

The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien is fiction and it is no substitute for reading the scriptures.

However, for anyone looking for fictional entertainment and diversion, The Lord of the Rings is one of my top recommendations.  We are admonished to “…seek out of the best books words of wisdom…” and through these articles I hope to convey why I feel that The Lord of the Rings fits the bill.  Not only is it the excellent entertainment, but also one of the greatest works of Christian* fiction!  It has the “ring of truth.”
