TWO CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATES AT OCPAC | ROGER STONE Published Monday, January 31, 2022 This Wednesday at noon Central Oklahoma Home Builders WEDNESDAY NOON Central Oklahoma Home Builders NOON to 1:15 PM ROGER STONE IN OKLAHOMA by Bob Linn Roger Stone has witnessed the terror of the Deep State in all its ferocity. He is in Oklahoma this week and I was able to visit with him this past weekend. His flight schedule is tight, but we are trying to work it out so that he can speak at OCPAC and get to Florida by 8 PM Wednesday. We think it will work, but the details are not yet firm. His story is riveting. Though uncertain, we thought it best to let you know that Wednesday will provide a potential opportunity to hear from a patriot whose life has been deeply influenced by ministers of the Gospel in the midst of political abuse. ________________ Senator Nathan Dahm is one of two candidates for the U.S. Congress who will speak this Wednesday at OCPAC. Nathan is one of the most principled members of the Oklahoma Legislature to have ever served. His clear thinking and quick wit has earned him time on national television. Nathan is a candidate for the United States Senate. We look to his Christian leadership to help direct our course in Oklahoma. ________________ WADE BURLESON ANNOUNCING FOR WESTERN OKLAHOMA'S CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT For Wade Burleson, thirty years as pastor of the largest church in Enid (3,000 members) was combined with a robust writing and speaking career. For that reason, Wade stepped out of the pulpit last year to focus on impacting the nation's spiritual and cultural decline through his books and his presentations. Unexpectedly, voters in both Enid and around the state began to ask him to fill a need in in the U.S. Congress by representing Oklahoma's largest geographical district, that extends from the ranches of western Oklahoma and the panhandle, to the communities in south Oklahoma City, and includes Stillwater and all the way to the edge of Tulsa. He will formally announce his candidacy for Congressional District 3 on Tuesday evening in Enid, and this Wednesday at OCPAC's noon luncheon. Whether you are a fan of Frank Lucas, Sean Roberts, or Wade Burleson, you will love the perspective he brings on our national cultural values and the importance of finding our footing in the Biblical world view.

BOB LINN Solzhenitsyn's Anthropocentric Humanism We are in the midst of a fight for the future of Oklahoma and the American Republic. A record number of you opened last week’s request to ask the State Department of Education to secure the integrity of our children’s education. What a healthy sign that Oklahoma is salted with many who will do what is needed to insure we make vital course corrections for our future. Below, I am including an appeal for those of you who have not yet sent an email to the State Department of Education. We are closer than ever to handing the American Republic to Marxists. The solution is found only in the spiritual health of our pulpits and the vibrancy of our pews We must have leaders who are grounded in divine revelation rather than the mythologies inherent in secularism. The violent riots led by the secularist advocates of Critical Race Theory through Black Lives Matter would be no surprise to Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. He wrote nearly forty years ago in the National Review that, “The failings of human consciousness, deprived of its divine dimension, have been a determining factor in all the major crimes of this century.” The title of his article was Men have forgotten God. I enjoy telling my grandchildren (and others) that the epistemological foundations of human ontology and anthropology are found only in the first chapter of the Book of Genesis. Indeed, we can know who we are and the expectations God has of us only by reading the opening pages of Genesis. Who we are and why we are here can be known only through divine revelation. The divine purpose for mankind must be known if we are to see the restoration of human civilization all around the globe. We need a restoration leading to the kind of civility lacking in those nations with a foundation in godless Marxist ideology. This godlessness is what Solzhenitsyn called “anthropocentric humanism” that knows no authority higher than mankind. In The Cube and the Cathedral, George Weigel summarized the thoughts of a number of Poland’s leading figures regarding their fight for that nation’s freedom when he wrote, “The Poles insisted that genuine revolution meant recovery of lost moral and spiritual values. They all believed that living in the truth could change what seemed unchangeable in history.” I’ve spoken before of the many prominent European leaders who point to Christianity as the only hope for Europe and for mankind. I think often of Marcello Pera’s book, Why We Should Call Ourselves Christians and his statement, “The apostacy of Christianity is exposing the entire West to the risk of a grave cultural and political crisis, and perhaps even to a collapse of civilization.” President Ronald Reagan affirmed this when he said, “If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.” Reagan said further that, “The time has come to turn to God and reassert our trust in Him for the healing of America - our country is in need of and ready for a spiritual renewal.” Oklahoma's institutional and governmental leadership must know that is only through a spiritual renewal that we will see the restoration of America. Join us this Wednesday to hear American patriots intent on laying renewed spiritual foundations in Oklahoma and America through service in the United States Congress an engagement in the pit of Washington's political machine. I'll see you Wednesday for lunch! God bless!

LAST WEEK We have a legislature poised to continue to fight the Marxist push in Oklahoma's classrooms and universities who call our children oppressors or victims based on the color of their skin and to foster hate between American children. David was our main speaker and told us of the work being planned for the upcoming legislative session regarding the indoctrination of Oklahoma students into forms of racial hatred and sexual perversion. Indoctrination is taking place in classrooms all over the state from Kindergarten through higher education. He received a standing ovation so inspiring was the presentation!

Make sure you register your family so we know how many freedom fighters will be joining us. This rally kicks off the start of the 2022 legislative session.

Full list of speakers will be announced soon! MAYORAL RACE OKC FEBRUARY 8 from the desk of Carol Hefner On February 8th, we could make history for our city. For far too long, conservatives have been idle. Only 25,000 of 360,000 registered voters showed up last election. We ignored the importance of our city’s leadership! Conservatives, not liberals, have allowed Oklahoma City to be taken over by socialist forces. Our current Mayor has been a puppet of the Biden administration and liberal groups from east and west coasts. He is ushering in destruction and crime at a rate never seen. The fault is our own. Our families and businesses cannot bear the strain of threats to our quality of life, safety, and economic outlook. A record number of conservative organizations have endorsed my campaign. The potential impact of their members could mark an eye-popping shift toward conservative governance. If all will turn out to vote and get one more person to vote with them, we could make a statement that echoes around the nation for the midterms. By our vote for prosperity, safety, freedom, and liberty, Oklahoma City would be the bellwether for other cities and states in June’s primaries. Our statement on February 8 would help impact the November elections. Let’s be a beacon. Let’s be a bold and beautiful light across the prairie, shining into the far reaches of America. May we no longer sit idly by. May we lead the movement to take our nation back! Please make it a mission to vote for our conservative values, for the future of America and generations to follow. Please vote Carol Hefner for Oklahoma City Mayor on February 8th!
