I don’t like extreme heat but you get used to it. Sorta. My son-in-law spent the last few summers in South Dakota. It can get hot there but the average temperature in June, July and August is about 85 degrees. That is more than a shade cooler than Tulsa. Tulsa averages 88 degrees in June,…

Now is the time to capture a heartbeat of obedience to God

Tulsa Beacon

Kids are smart. In fact, I believe they are the smartest people in the world. Victoria, my three-year-old niece, called me at the office the other day. She didn’t want to talk to my wife, just me. When I asked how she was doing, our little princess told me she wasn’t feeling good. I asked…

Forty years of marriage to an outstanding Godly woman

Forty years ago, on July 10, 1982, I married an extraordinary woman – Susan Campbell.

Tulsa Beacon
