A lecture given at L'Abri Fellowship in Southborough, Massachusetts. For more information, visit https://southboroughlabri.org/ by Matt Dickerson, guest lecturer Lament is woven into the story of God's people from the Psalms and prophets to the teaching of Jesus. It is also an important element of the fabric of J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth writings. Indeed, through his major works including The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion, Tolkien connects lament to wisdom and shows that lament is both rooted in hope and leads to action. Matthew Dickerson is the author of numerous books, book chapters, and essays on the writings of Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, including most recently Aslan's Breath: Seeing the Holy Spirit in Narnia. He has also written about Biblical lament in his recent book Birds in the Sky, Fish in the Sea: Attending to creation with Delight and Wonder.

Welcome to books, belief & beyond, hosts Greg and Nathan dive deep into the pages of powerful stories that have shaped hearts, cultures, and imaginations. Today's episode, they explore the themes, worldviews, and wisdom found in the beloved books of Tolkien. His stories have lasting moral and spiritual weight and Greg and Nathan begin their literary journey with the master of myth and world-building. They explore how Tolkien's creation story in The Silmarillion echoes and diverges from the Biblical creation account, unpacking the theological and imaginative depth behind his legendarium. Along the way, they reflect on the enduring power of old stories with clear heroes and villains—and how such tales can shape a person's heart, character, and view of the world.
