An Interview with Louis Markos on C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien - Part 1 of 2

In this two-part series, I talk with Dr. Louis Markos about C. S. Lewis, his conversion to Christianity, and how his friend, J.R.R. Tolkien, influenced his decision to become a believer in Christ. By way of conversation with Tolkien, Lewis came to the conclusion that Christianity was true myth. This realization helped Lewis not only make sense of the stories of the past (and the depths of all human longing), but it also had a profound effect upon the books and stories he would go on to write himself. Markos also takes listeners for a deep dive into Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, and The Silmarillion. He shows how they reflect Tolkien's Christian faith and highlights the classical virtues.
