Looking forward to 2019, we must maintain our republic

Tulsa Beacon

Finally we can put to bed and in the files of history the year 2018. It was a very wild and difficult year indeed.  However, as it has been covered extensively and to many of us our dismay and disgust.  So it seems to me to be time to look ahead to the future and…

Happy New Year! and blessings from Walker, Titus, Cohen

Tulsa Beacon

The greatest gift is the salvation given to us through our Lord Jesus Christ. But today, I want to write about the second greatest gift, and that is the gift of friendship. To me, the measure of a person does not lie in their wealth but in the number of people who call them friend….

The message of Christmas? Reconciliation with Christ

Tulsa Beacon

Christmas is not about giving. Christmas is not about peace on Earth. Christmas is not about family. Christmas is not a little baby. These are all of elements of how we celebrate Christmas in America. But the core of Christmas is that God took the form of man and in humility was born of a…

The media should show more respect to President Trump

Tulsa Beacon

It seems that even on a week where the attention of our nation should have been totally focused on the departure of PRESGB-41 to a better life and reunion with his FLOTUS in Heaven (especially since PRESDT-45 had declared December 6 as a national holiday with banks, government offices and USPS closed in observance of…

At Christmas, we rejoice at the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ

Tulsa Beacon

As we come to the final days of the year 2018 we find the major observation of importance to those of us in the Christian family of believers, with Monday marking Christmas Eve.  The event that has become, in my opinion, far too commercialized with emphasis on parties, gifts and other diversions from the true…

Do you hear what I hear? The Moore Family wishes you hope

Looking for a great Christmas gift? How about a book?

Tulsa Beacon

Are you stuck for good ideas for Christmas gifts this year? Is there someone on your list who doesn’t need anything and won’t toss out any hints? A gift subscription to the Tulsa Beacon would be nice. A lot of folks do that. At the giver’s request, we will send a Christmas card (not a…

The month of December has become meaningful for many

Tulsa Beacon

Now that the celebration of Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Cyber Monday have come and gone, we turn to some more serious observances in the month of December.  This began with the first Friday this year on December 7, Pearl Harbor Day. In my family, it has been nine years since my wife Anne was released…

Cohen the Goodhearted’s watchful eye is like some shepherds

Tulsa Beacon

The other day, I went to help my son Caleb paint the inside of my previously owned home he just bought. I enjoy these tasks as they give us some quality time together. But this day, I was particularly excited because I got to hang out with Titus the Honorable and Cohen the Goodhearted. Cohen…

The Christmas party season can be an awful lot of fun

Tulsa Beacon

It’s time for Christmas parties. I love this time of year. The weather is crisp, people are in good moods and it’s a good time to reflect on the past year. We usually go to a few Christmas parties. Several Sunday School groups at our church are going together for a party and that should…
