“Glimpses of Final Victory”
Monica Doumit is speaking at St. Therese of Carmel in San Diego, June 16!
Tolkien wrote: “I am a Christian and indeed a Roman Catholic, so that I do not expect ‘history’ to be anything but a long defeat – though it contains … some samples or glimpses of final victory.” Catholics in the 21st century in the western world are certainly familiar with the long defeat of which Tolkien wrote. But what are our glimpses of final victory? How can we have hope given everything that is happening at the moment?
