@rebelgypsy@MinerBob00 Hey there! Just curious where you saw the Mazzie plan laid out. I haven’t seen/heard it (and I’ve been at numerous forums with him). From what I have heard, there are critical errors.
Oklahoma you wake up Wednesday June 17th but because you had to work you went to bed before all the votes are counted. Final count:
Mazzei 22% (Trump bump)
Drummond 19.1%
Merrick 19%
McCall 18.8%
Keating 18.6%
Other 2.5%
Now ask yourself if you were a Merrick, McCall or Keating supporter but didn't vote for them because someone told you they couldn't win, how would you feel?
Just vote for whoever you think is best and be able to look yourself in the mirror the next day.
What a day yesterday!
I preached at Lifepoint Bible Church in the morning. Then me and my wife and daughter delivered signs around Edmond and OKC. And quick lunch and then a meeting at Crossroads Church in OKC.
The campaign is intensely demanding. Please pray for my family. They are doing amazing and they are all-in. But it’s a lot.
After we got home yesterday to a pile of laundry, bills, and prep for today (5 more meetings today), I gathered my girls on the bed and we spoke life over them.
“God is in this. He is using this campaign to touch a lot of lives and bring great change to the state. He will meet ALL of our needs. He will never fail us.”
And then we prayed. There was such peace over us. We are confident he is with us always.
The message I preached earlier that day has been my meditation and anchor.
“I will open rivers on the bare heights, and fountains in the midst of the valleys. I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. I will put in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia, the myrtle, and the olive. I will set in the desert the cypress, the plane and the pine together, that they may see and know, may consider and understand together, that the hand of the Lord has done this, the Holy One of Israel has created it.”
Isaiah 41:18-20 ESV

FYI. All of the teachers I know personally are incredible people. True conservatives. Authentic believers. Servants at heart. I truly believe most teachers are doing what they’re doing because they are called to serve and they have a heart to educate.
I would love to see all of the highly educated and skilled teachers who have left the classroom because of the toxic environment return to the place they would really prefer to be - the classroom.
We need to hire high quality teachers, pay them well, and then TRUST THEM TO TEACH.
Let’s move away from standardized testing and “teaching to the test”. Instead let’s empower teachers to “teach to the student”
@Okla_Hombre Yes I do. Lower the bar and people usually fall beneath it. Raise the bar and people rise to the occasion.
I believe in our teachers AND the students! Let’s raise the standard high!
