My mother rarely took me to church. But she read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings to me at an early age. My mind was ablaze with the story. I have loved it more than any work of fiction I have ever read. Later in life, after reading it several times, I realized how Tolkien was teaching the necessity of grace and trying to give a feeling for how even the most foul person needs and deserves it with the right attitude *repentance”. The author of this piece misses the most important moment of the Frodo, Gollum, Sam dynamic. I will let you discover it for yourself.
