Ric Cox commented on John Richeson's video

"Gary, you're right. I had a country band for about 6 years and felt my main job was to keep everyone turning down their amp. I've never heard anyone tell even the best bands to turn up. "

Ric Cox commented on John Richeson's video

" ROA 84 was my interim year. I was going to spend it in Bismark, ND as a Twig Area Coordinator. It was that May in 1985 that Dr. died. Everything began changing until finally, it went to hell in a handbasket when POP was read on the last Corps…"

Ric Cox commented on John Richeson's video

"I met the WOWs on Friday night and we left for the ROA on Sunday night at midnight or a little after from San Antonio. Annie Whitiker, Jim Perrine, and Julie Smith. The 4th person was sent home earlier in the year. I heard manifestations after we…"

Ric Cox replied to John Richeson's discussion Closing The Way Corps Site

"I was raised in Corpus Christi. It's actually the only city named for the body of Christ. Texas is a great place. I've lived all over the U.S. and always knew I would come back here. There's simply something I like about the wide open spaces.…"

Ric Cox replied to John Richeson's discussion Closing The Way Corps Site

"Matt,
I agree with you. The bond between some of us was like none other. Recently, I went to Denver to visit my son with a Corps brother that wanted to visit a believer. It was quite a road trip. The believer had a car accident and had no car.…"

I was so hungry when I went in the 10th Corps that nothing else mattered. The bond I had with some of my Corps brothers and sisters at the tem was so much deeper than anything I ever had with my earthly family. It meant so much to me to be…"

About Me

It is 2013 and I thought I should update this since it has been seen for about 6 years. In 2002 I changed my name back to my birth name. You will now see me as Richard Barton in any emails and on facebook. I still have more fun than most people. I miss a lot of you. I still speak the Word at every open door though I would not go door to door witnessing unless God was very clear about it. My life is getting to the point that wisdom is the principle thing, but I still search for it. It seems to elude me. I have had some close calls throughout my life. But then, I suppose all of us have had a few. I am ready for (as Jeff Stanley says) part B. I have endured 3 brain surgeries for a benign tumor in my pituitary gland. It was not the best part of my life. But I survived all that in spite of the unbelief around me. I love to tell people I haven't had a bad day in 38 years. Then, explain that while this is true, I have had some HARD days. Perspective is a good thing to have (and a vocabulary). I moved to Comfort, Texas in May of 2013. It is a small town about 30 miles northwest of San Antonio. I have a motorcycle and love to ride in the hill country where there is less traffic and lots of great scenery. The top shelf best part of my life is in the fact that I learned "HOW" to rightly-divide God's Word. This is the biggest thing that distinguished us in the 70's & 80's. It wasn't Athletes or Way Prod or even speaking in tongues. The fire of the Word is still burning for me. It is all I have. Nothing else in this life can touch it. Especially not ego or talent. The Way Corps Poem is still in my blood stream.

My Interests

Still have a passionate interest in the Bible. A little in business and music. But not the music business. .I play guitar and bass and bang chords on the piano. I've developed a keen interest in gold and the economy (that sure looks like it could collapse). There are a lot of believers who think God will meet our needs even in a collapse. I know this is positive believing and all that. But makes me pause and consider Joseph. What if he had taken that position? Egypt would have been hit just as hard as all the other countries. Of course, God will meet our need. Qhy couldn't buying gold now set us up to have our need met?

Employment or Career

medically-retired I was in sales for about 30 years. Sold radio advertising, computers, janitorial supplies. Loved it but never saw the prosperity possible in the highest paid profession. I used the skills learned in the job to develop my witnessing skills. I've gotten pretty good at the art of witnessing. I am planning to build a huge business with gold. If you haven't seen this video, enjoy it. I spent a few years keeping watch on this company and now I am an affiliate. Gold coins are too volitile since they are owned by the government and we are only the bearer. As a seller you have to pay for the proof of its value. But this company has the highest security in the world for proving the purity of it's product. Of course, I believe Corps should have Gold and Guns and everyone is invited to contact me with any inquiries.

Music I Like

Classic Country Texas Country Nashville Envies

Books I Like

Rarely read much of anything but the Bible. My eyes are going dim so I don't have a desire for anything but the Bible now. But when I did, Tom Clancey was my favorite, mostly now, I read the Bible and thats about it. Can't say I'm very cultured.

Television I like

I am mainly interested in movies. Bones is a good show. That is about it. I am starting my own movie collection. I figure I only need about 80-100. I would rather watch movies than television. Too many commercials and cable is a waste of time and money for me.

Movies I like

I would rather watch 20 yr old movies than the new stuff Hollywood markets. I enjoy almost all kinds except thrasher and stupid ones like Pulp Fiction and the Divinci Code. Guess you could say I'm very opiniated about such works. Many of Hollywoods works in the past decade have been a huge disappointment. I would rather watch a movie I've seen a dozen times than to watch some of the crap they've produced. I prefer older movies. Hollywood has called crap art for much too long.

Sports Teams I like

Dallas Cowboys,NE Patiots. Rarely have time to keep up with either. I like the Spurs but basketball is not my favorite sport. The season is much too long and they are so good, it is a bit boring to me.

Sounds like you have it figured out better than most people, most need alcohol and drugs....I' m thankful to God for what we know and glad that He's got it covered... and for what Jesus Christ accomplished for us!
Beverly Workman McGarry April 26, 2010 at 9:45am

Dear Ric, I've always wanted to bring them to SAT - I loved it there. And my son
has read about Schletterbaum - it sounds so fun. I'll be in touch about that. Our priority
right now is to sell our house and get to WV. Pray that we make a chunk of change
so we can take a vacation! And by the way - I didn't know you were a musician!
Beverly Workman McGarry April 26, 2010 at 9:12am

Dear Ric, I heard the economy in Texas is great. Rico Graniero and Charles Young
are up in Dallas and we keep in touch with them. Actually were moving to Wv
to help with my Dad who is 86. Are your kids nearby? We have a 12 year old.
Beverly Workman McGarry April 26, 2010 at 8:49am

Dear Ric, It was such a treat to hear from you. I praise God that you are alive and well.
I was in SAT the first two years after residence with Donnie Sue Conner. I remember
you as a fun, tender hearted guy who was always a blessing to be around. How did you
end up in San Antonio? Love in Christ, Beverly
Lenore Tavella April 25, 2010 at 4:46pm

Hi Ric, good to see you too. That was one of the nicest compliments I have ever gotten!!!!! You really blessed my life....thanks! Well you've gone through some stuff ........I guess most of us have- but we need to keep laughing and trust God. :)
Willie and Becky Thomas April 8, 2010 at 10:06am

Glad to be here as well, Ric! We'll enjoy compare notes type chats at earliest opportunity!...this week or two we're kinda running around quite a bit, so we'll get back with more later! love you! Bless you big! Willie and Becky

Hi Rc, Are you on Facebook? Mark Sirota is, you could too. :)
Tom Kelso March 22, 2010 at 5:33am

I thought the same thing. It seems that every 2000 years something major happens. spirtually. Adam ---> Moses = 2000 years. Moses ---> Jesus = 2000 years. Jesus ---> Now = 1983 years. One of the things that makes you go "Hmmm."

God bless you man! Happy birthday!!!!!
