Jesse
Jackson's thoughts on Obama's win; Michelle Obama's Visit on The View;
Billionaire Bob Johnson's push for Hillary Clinton to be on the Ticket; Hillary
Clinton to Concede to Barack Obama on Friday, Endorse on Saturday
Two-time
U.S. presidential candidate Jesse Jackson has praised Obama's march to
capture the Democratic presidential nomination. The civil rights
activist spoke to Reuters via telephone from Tanzania, where he is
attending a summit of black American leaders and their African
counterparts. "It is a fulfilling moment to be in Africa trying to
reconcile two continents so savagely torn apart by the slave trade ...
as a son of America and Africa becomes the de facto Democratic Party
nominee," said Jackson, 66. "It says a lot about a growing, maturing
changing America."

Obama-Clinton ticket: a dream or nightmare?
Picture a cozy weekend at Camp David for
President Obama, Vice President Hillary Rodham Clinton and their lively
spouses. They'd talk policy and politics in the confines of the rustic
retreat. After the long campaign and all the bruised feelings, Michelle
Obama could finally reach out to Bill Clinton, as she recently said
she's been wanting to do. To be exact, she said: "I want to rip his
eyes out." Then added: "Kidding."

McCain & Obama: Where they Stand on key Social Issues
Barack Obama clinched the Democratic nomination June 3, and in doing so
set up a general election contest with Republican John McCain that will
offer social conservative voters two very different choices on a host
of cultural issues. A senator from Illinois, Obama is the first
African-American to lead a major political party, and if elected would
serve during the 150th anniversary of both the Emancipation
Proclamation and the beginning of the Civil War, the war that freed the
slaves.

On "Being Saved"
in Black America
While growing up in a very
religious and church-going family, I often heard the phrase "Being
Saved." Now to me and my peers, "Being Saved" was a rather spooky and
mystical thing, and only the real holy folk could be such —
whatever it was.

Pastor
of the Week:
Pastor Tommy Steele, Pastor of New Life Independent Baptist Church,
Concord, North Carolina
On
October 9, 1978 God led a man by the name of Danny Willis to witness to
a fellow employee that man was Tommy Steele. Following his
salvation, Brother Steele started attending a Bible-believing church
and went to work in the bus ministry. He soon heard God's
call to
ministry and started New Life Independent Baptist Church.
From
its humble beginnings, in a storefront building, God has used this
ministry to see countless souls birthed into the Kingdom of
God.
Pastor Steele's belief that every one he meets is a soul for whom
Christ died has motivated him to center this ministry on reaching
others for Christ. Dr. Tommy Steele is the recipient of many
honors including a Doctorate of Theology and Humanities, but in his
mind those pale in comparison to the honor or ministering to the needs
of others. Dr. Steele has worked selflessly giving himself to the
ministry and God has blessed him richly. Over the years he
has
had the opportunity to preach to thousands of people across this
country and abroad. He shares his joy of ministry with his
family
who as well has a heart for ministry. E-mail
address: pastor.steele@nlibchurch.org.

you want to submit information about your pastor to be reviewed for

Inspirations
The
Word of God
for this Week
"And we
know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to
them who are the called according to his purpose."
--Romans 8:28
The
Encouraging Word for this Week
"The
Church in
the West today presents too easy a target for Satan. We do not believe
we are at war. We do not know where the battleground is located, and,
in spite of our weapons, they are neither loaded nor aimed at the right
target. We are unaware of how vulnerable we are. We are better fitted
for a parade than for an amphibious landing." --Ed Silvoso
The
Prayer Motivator for this Week
MOTIVATING
VERSE: "Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit,
and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all
saints." --Ephesians 6:18
PRAYER QUOTE: "Prayer is the language of a man burdened with a sense of
need."
--E.M. Bounds
The
Soul-Winning Motivator for this Week
"And
he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." --Matthew
4:19
SOUL-WINNING
QUOTE: "Let's quit fiddling with religion and do something to bring the
world to Christ."
--Billy Sunday
Black
Christian History
Moses Ladejo Stone: February
22, 1880 -- Moses Ladejo Stone was ordained into the ministry in the
First Baptist Church, Lagos (originally known as American Baptist
Church) by William W. Colley. Colley, an African American, is thought
to be the person to have served as an appointed missionary of both a
white-administered missionary-sending agency and a black-administered
missionary-sending agency. Colley began his missionary career in 1875.
That year, he was appointed by the Southern Baptist Foreign Mission
Board to serve in West Africa as assistant to W. J. David, a white
missionary from Mississippi. In November of 1879, Colley returned to
the United States convinced that many more blacks should be involved in
international missions, especially in Africa. As he traveled back and
forth across the country, Colley urged black Baptists to take an
independent course in mission work and form their own sending agency.
Colley was the primary force in the founding of the Baptist Foreign
Mission Convention (BFMC) in 1880.
