Joe Biden wants to hide the truth by intimidating and manipulating the news media.

Editorial: Obama’s homosexual policies

Tulsa Beacon

Former President Obama lied and said he was opposed to the Homosexual Agenda when he first ran in 2008.

The Methodists, the second largest protestant denomination in the country, have two schools of thought. The orthodox…

Editorial: More pot initiative petitions filed

Tulsa Beacon

The relentless march to legalize the recreational use of marijuana marches on. Pot advocates keep filing initiative petitions. Political gadfly Paul Tay of Tulsa filed State Question 808, which would guarantee the right of anyone to use cannabis without restraint. State Question 806 would provide more legal protection for businesses that sell pot and other…

Editorial: Evangelicals support the President

Tulsa Beacon

In December, Mark Galli, editor of Christianity Today, called for the impeachment and removal of President Trump. It would be incorrect to think that Galli or his magazine speaks for Evangelical Christianity.
