How We‘re Celebrating Tolkien Reading Day 2020

Happy Tolkien Reading Day, friends! This is one of my favorite days of the year for many reasons and I hope you’ll find some time today to celebrate the life and works of J.R.R. Tolkien today. (If you’re reading this and wondering what in the world Tolkien Reading Day even is, you can read all about it here.) I also wrote about why today is important within the Christian community, what it meant to Tolkien, and how March 25th is a sort of bridge between our world and Middle-Earth here.

The Ring & The Cross: Why March 25th is The Most Important Date of all History

Tolkien created Middle-earth with painstaking detail and wove importance and meaning into nearly every page of The Lord of the Rings — and the dates of important events are no exception. Chiefly, March 25th marks the date when the One Ring was destroyed in the fires of Mount Doom. Being the most important event of The Lord of the Rings, this date is sure to hold some significance, don’t you suppose?
