Stephen Christoforou

Stephen Christoforou, Director of Y2AM and a podcaster at Ancient Faith Radio, joins Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick to explore the literary magic of J.R.R. Tolkien. They discuss how Tolkien's narratives reflect virtues relevant to modern life. The duo dives into the concept of 'true myth' and the struggles of characters like Denethor, linking them to contemporary secular challenges. They humorously critique the role of the eagles while examining personal transformation through suffering. Their conversation is a delightful blend of Tolkien's depth and contemporary relevance.
