ANGELS IN THE HOOD.  New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church of Fort Worth Hebrews 13:2 In the heart of Fort Worth’s historic 76104 community, there stands a church that believes faith is not only something we proclaim — it is something we practice. At New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church, worship does not end when the final hymn is sung or when the sanctuary doors close. In many ways, that is when the real work of the Gospel begins. Because at New Mount Rose, faith is never meant to sit still. Faith moves. Faith reaches. Faith serves. This is Love in Motion. Every Sunday, believers gather to praise, pray, and hear the Word of God. But when you walk into New Mount Rose, you quickly discover something powerful: you never quite know what assignment the Lord may give you that day. You may come expecting a sermon and leave with a mission. You may arrive seeking encouragement and leave carrying responsibility. Because at New Mount Rose, faith is not passive. Faith is active. Faith ...

BVB | Black Vote Block | Voices of the Empowered “Plow Forward.” Luke 9:62 “No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.” Song of the New Abolition by Nija Higgins:  https://youtu.be/u_cXAC5-zto?si=8Jz0VWGeBey0hRvA The Black Vote Block (BVB) is a new effort to engage, energize, and empower the next generation of freedom fighters through civic responsibility and community leadership. This movement is rooted in faith, courage, and responsibility. Just as scripture teaches that those who take hold of the plow must press forward without looking back, we too must move forward with determination to build stronger communities and a more just society. Our mission is simple but powerful: Organize the vote. Protect the vote. Elevate the voice of the Black community. The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 29:2: “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Throughout American history, civ...

WE WON’T GO BACK A Statement from Pastor. Kyev P. Tatum, Sr. |  https://vimeo.com/756520277 The statue known as “One Riot, One Ranger” stands as a reminder of a complicated and painful history associated with the Texas Rangers Division. That history did not prevent the local baseball franchise from placing the monument prominently at Globe Life Field. For many Texans, however, the statue raises an important question about what—and whose history—is being honored in a modern, taxpayer-supported stadium ( https://youtu.be/u_cXAC5-zto?si=F6PicVgPB4K0XW_h ). As a former state official with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Texas and a past president of the Texas Hill Country Branch, I wholeheartedly endorse the statement issued by the Arlington NAACP regarding the Texas Rangers statue at Globe Life Field. It should never feel like open season on disrespecting and insulting the Black community. Yet moments like this often send that very message. The statue...
