Rising Sun Baptist Church’s Hoffmann builds ministry to reach out to Latter-day Saints

Disappointing ‘Tolkien’ forgets Christian symbolism that set apart ‘Lord of the Rings’

So it would seem to me that any attempt to tell Tolkien’s own biographical story would absolutely require a look at how his faith affected his writing. Sadly, “Tolkien” (in theaters now), does not even pretend to scratch the surface in that department.

SUPER BOWL: Rams receiver delivers ‘spiritual spark’
