I returned to Tulsa for the first time in 25 years since I was there for a longtime project at BP Amoco in downtown. So much has changed for the better since then! Restaurants, Route 66 attractions, Outsiders house, Dylan/Guthrie museums, The Gathering Place... I could go on. Super friendly locals, great food and lots of cool vintage shops. (Only downer was seeing BP Amoco building on Boston Ave is now abandoned).

Former members of Southlake-based Gateway Church have asked a federal appeals court to revive a lawsuit over the church’s use of millions of dollars in tithe money, according to court documents.

An East Texas federal judge dismissed the lawsuit in June, ruling that a First Amendment protection known as the ecclesiastical abstention doctrine applied to the church. The doctrine holds that civil courts may not decide internal religious disputes involving church governance.

In the original lawsuit, former members of the church claimed that Gateway’s leaders, including former lead pastor Robert Morris, misled the congregation to get them to donate money to international missionary work, according to documents. The former members alleged that church leaders did not appropriate the funds the way they promised.

The plaintiffs claimed that 15% of the money earmarked for global missions and Jewish ministry partners may have been “rebuffed” by Gateway, the Star-Telegram previously reported.

Tim O'Hare oversees Tarrant County's taxpayer-funded public mandate to "Provide for hospitals, public welfare and veterans assistance" yet I have never heard him utter one ounce of concern for the health and welfare of seniors.

Let's replace Tim O'Hare and take better care of our older neighbors.

68-year-old William Thomas Engle of Southlake was sentenced to nine years in federal prison on July 30 after pleading guilty to one count of wire fraud, the U.S. Department of Justice announced.

Customers testified they transferred upwards of $2 million to Engle, who provided bank statements purportedly showing the funds. He would give victims false excuses to explain why the loans had never been funded.

Engle transferred the stolen funds to his personal bank accounts and bought luxury items such as a yacht, vehicles, and jewelry.

...Crucially, Sharia is not in conflict with American democracy. A fundamental tenet of Islam is the requirement for Muslims to respect the law of the land. For us, that is the U.S. Constitution. For decades, American Muslims have lived, worked, and thrived under this framework. We don’t just obey it; we defend it by actively participating in it — voting, running for office, and serving in the military to defend the very rights that allow us to freely practice our faith in this nation of free and fearless....
