We will discuss what I call “The Magnificent Seven,” Biblical characters that remind me of the heroes from the classic film.

We will discuss Epitaph, by Mary Doria Russell, again. Josie Marcus was determined that the world see her man, Wyatt Earp, as the man she knew him to be. We should be equally protective of Jesus’ reputation 

We will discuss John Wayne’s “The Alamo,” a film he saw as his commentary on freedom and communism. The stand he took, both behind the scenes and on the big screen, should inspire us to stand for Christ.

We will discuss Dicetown, which combines Yahtzee and poker to create a game where, to quote Kenny rogers, every hand’s a winner and every hand’s a loser.
