Charlie's Picks - Aug 25, 2026  Oklahoma Runoff Primary Election

   LifePoint Bible Church does not officially endorse candidates. However, because of the biblical principles we teach and preach, we always vote according to our biblical, conservative beliefs. Consequently, the correct way to vote is normally obvious to us.
   
   That said, as a pastor, and because of my stand over the years, people often ask who and what I am supporting each election cycle.  

   To help answer those questions, I have found Charlie's Picks to be particularly helpful.  Charlie Meadows is a stalwart Christian
 

conservative and a friend of many years.  I always enthusiastically recommend his “Picks” as a great guide when deciding how to vote.  Though Charlie and I don’t always agree on everything, generally, I find myself making the same recommendations he does.
 
   This time, I am making “Charlie’s Picks” available for the upcoming runoff elections August 2026. Some of the races may be outside your district, but others will definitely be ones you will have the opportunity on which to vote. Like me, I hope you find Charlie’s picks helpful.

Let us pray for wisdom in stewarding our vote and for leaders who uphold righteousness.
