Unveiling the Parallels Between Revelation & Middle-earth (Sean McDonough)

In this episode we are joined by one of my all-time favorite professors Dr. Sean McDonough! Sean has taught a class called "Tolkien's Apocalyptic Imagination" at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary for over 20 years now and his recent book "Truth's Consuming Ecstasy" explores Revelation in light of Tolkien and 5 other literary and philosophical voices.
