REACTIONS: Straw men. Plain Talk. Voctave. Castles of Burgundy.

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you!I’ve been preaching … about straw men, and trying not to fight too many of them. Easy victories are not really victories at all.I’ve been reading … Plain Talk, by Robert Turner. I thought I would comment on how he handled the political chaos of his day. Trouble is, he didn’t.I’ve been hearing … Voctave, the best singing group I’ve ever heard — and especially how the uninitiated respond upon their first hearing.I’ve been playing … Castles of Burgundy. Occasionally you have to respond to others’ actions, but it’s rarely an excuse for not playing your own game. Check out Hal on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@halhammons9705Hal Hammons serves as preacher and shepherd for the Lakewoods Drive church of Christ in Georgetown, Texas.
