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 In Loving Memory of Ted Ferrell

I would love to connect with you. …"

Ric Cox left a comment for Rev. Gail Collinson

"Gail, Sorry, I'm a Texas kid. I've been all over the country, except for the Northeast. I've never visited NY. The way the winter is here, I don't see it will ever happen. God bless you!"

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.…"

Richard"

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

"John,

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…"

Thanks for posting the exerpts from Ephesians. What a treasure! The Adversary sure tried to bury what we learned and divide us. He almost succeeded. I'm thankful to still have Corps nights with a Corps brother and an AC grad…"

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.

When I woke up this morning, I felt a year older. Sure enough, when I looked on my profile it said that I was 57. Man, that's old! Retire? I don't think so. I like my job too much. When I was in Corpus Christie I used to see old men cleaning windows. So I figured that it must be easy. Well, it's an easy job but somebody has to do it. Hey, I'm up in Fair Oaks and Boerne all the time. Give me a call sometime. God bless, Les

Instead of what? A comedian? No, I became an optician because of the way it enables me to help people - the incredible job security is a good benefit too.

Glad to see you survived the ordeal with your tumor. It must have been scary as s--t.
I've been living with my partner of 28 years in Willis, Texas - about 60 miles North of Houston. No children. We're looking to adopt two felines soon, though.

What are some names of Texas bands you like. I am a music freak and would like to check out some new music.

Thanks for reaching out.
