September 26, 2007

Grant Hardin, for years, gave the OVTA Rev. Doak's sermon on the morning of September 26th at Sycamore Shoals. This is the date that Reverend Doak gave the sermon to the Patriot Militia in 1780 as they embarked on the campaign . Grant retired and he turned the job over to the Reverend George Cobb from Alabama. George has done a powerful job and he has given Doak's sermon several places along the March. It is a powerful sermon and one worth hearing.
