Almighty God, by the glorious resurrection of Your Son, Jesus Christ, You destroyed death and brought life and immortality to light. Grant that we who have been raised with Him may abide in His presence and rejoice in the hope of eternal glory; through the same Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

@0Beanie05923291 I wouldn't worry about the ability of the child(ren), I'd be worried about the creepy people out to kidnap them.

The other day I saw a video of a mom recording her seven-year-old going into Chick-fil-A by himself to order lunch. She was so nervous about the whole thing. It kind of made me laugh because when I was 7 years old, my siblings and I would regularly ride our bikes to the grocery store a mile from home to buy milk, bread, and a carton of cigarettes for my mom. (Don’t judge my mom. It was the 80s.) I’m not advocating for letting children purchase cigarettes again, but I really do think parents need to relax a little bit. Children are capable of far more than parents are expecting of them today. I’m glad that little boy‘s mom decided to let him test his wings, but it shouldn’t have been such an earth-shattering event.

Children's Literature is great literature. What are some works of children's literature that are definitely great works of art that even now you don't tire of reading?

This is how the Charge of the Rohirrim from The Lord of the Rings was filmed; this is how cinema history was made:

@elfelessar @tbearsworkshop We have 2 different LOTR Monopoly boards. This one is different from both of them. Where did you get this one?

Thank You, Lord Jesus, for Your great love for us, shown by redeeming us from sin, death, and the devil by Your death and resurrection. Amen.

“‘Who was Ilúvatar?' asked Eriol. 'Was he of the Gods?' 'Nay,' said Rúmil, 'that he was not, for he made them. Ilúvatar is the Lord for Always who dwells beyond the world; who made it and is not of it nor in it, but loves it.'” - Tolkien, The Book of Lost Tales

Hosanna!

Almighty and everlasting God, You sent Your Son, our Savior Jesus Christ, to take upon Himself our flesh and to suffer death upon the cross. Mercifully grant that we may follow the example of His great humility and patience and be made partakers of His resurrection; through the same Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

@HannahWardEdu My mom read these to me before bedtime when I was really little.

Anyone know her? She was my idol growing up. ❤️

@Andrewnsnyder LOTR is so pagan.

“The hands of the king are the hands of a healer, and so shall the rightful king be known.” - Ioreth (Tolkien, Return of the King)

@moscester There's two other full bookshelves in another room and more books that we don't have shelf space for in buckets.

Когда я учился в США, в домах и квартирах американцев меня поразили всего две вещи. Очень низкие потолки и полное отсутствие книг.

@GeeksGamersCom The opening of the Silmarillion intentionally mirrors Genesis

@HarrisonGarlic1 I think this was the article I read the other day that made me want to read the books again and/or watch the extended editions again.

What is difficult to watch is our modern day.
