February 25, 2022 Isolated but Not Alone: Strategic, BUT Mostly NOT
On today's episode, I was going to be starting our discussion on the Strategic Theories. However, I took some time to discuss two current media stories, and I ran out of time! That is why this episode is entitled, "Isolated but Not Alone: Strategic, BUT Mostly NOT, as I focused more on the two media stories. The first media story involved Greg Locke, a pastor from an evangelical church down south, and his sermon on "witches." The second is about our current global climate and Russia beginning military actions in the Ukraine.
