In the "church" of the LOTRO almighty, our sermons are broadcast in chat channels, simulcast across individual servers and even posted on some forums you'll find outside of Middle Earth on the strange alternate universe known as "the web."

In other words, you choose the sermons you want to hear, read or take an active role in. After all, our sermons aren't just preaching to the choir, they're also interactive formats designed for our members, guests and visitors to become more involved. We feel you should immerse yourself in the experience, the lore, the life --- the "religion" of LOTRO --- to gain a better understanding of the world around you.

If you're not a fan of sermons, you are still welcome to attend services. However, if you would like to know more about what type of sermons you can expect to hear, read or partake in, see below and decide for yourself which ones might make you the preacher, the choir, the non-believer or the earplug-wearing janitor!

**Earnote: These pages (along with much of the Lick an Ear website itself) are indeed intended for amusement only. The "church" of LOTRO is not a real religion, nor is it intended as a serious religion! So, please, if you have a religion or take religion seriously, take no offense. The "church" of LOTRO is just a silly, satirical spoof, take or parody of what can be a religious experience...in a virtual realm MMORPG sort of way. Enjoy the humor...and believe in Middle Earth!
