Beyond the Gatekeepers Update

Friends, due to scheduling, Beyond the Gatekeepers will not show tonight. We look forward to resuming our conversations next Wednesday at 8:00 PM (ET) with a very special guest, Dr. Anthony B. Pinn.

Dr. Pinn is the Agnes Cullen Arnold Distinguished Professor of Humanities and Professor of Religion at Rice University, one of the nation’s leading scholars in religion, Black humanism, and African American religious thought. He is the author of numerous books and a respected voice on the intersections of faith, culture, ethics, and justice.

Our conversation will center on his book, My Jams: Reflections on the Relationship Between Music and Religion, exploring how music shapes spiritual imagination, identity, memory, and meaning. Together, we will examine the powerful ways soundtracks, songs, and cultural rhythms inform our understanding of faith, liberation, and the human experience.

Join Bishop Yvette A. Flunder and me for what promises to be a rich and thought-provoking dialogue.

Beyond the Gatekeepers
Faith. Justice. Dialogue.

48 Days.

That's how long we have until leaders from across the country gather in one room for the TFAM Leadership Conference, July 22–25.

48 days to discern. 48 days to decide. 48 days to prepare your spirit, your calendar, and your community for what is being built.

If you are reading this, you are likely carrying the weight of leadership somewhere, in a pulpit, an organization, a classroom, a movement, or a quiet seat of influence that few people see. You are responsible for people. You are responsible for policy. You are responsible for public witness in a moment that demands more clarity, more courage, and more community than any of us were trained for. You were not meant to carry it alone.

This year, we are gathering around three movements that name where we are and where we are going:
Resist. We name what is harming our people and refuse to look away.
Repair. We tell the truth about what has been broken — in our communities, our institutions, and ourselves — and we do the honest work of mending.
Regenerate. We imagine and build what comes next. New ministries. New economies. New ways of being together.

All of it is anchored in the practice of Ubuntu: I am because we are.

The TFAM Leadership Conference is not a routine event. It is a strategic convening for leaders who know this moment requires more than what we have been doing and who are ready to lead differently with people who get it.

Here is what to do this week:
Register at tfamconference.org and lock in your seat.
Block July 22–25 on your calendar, including travel days.
Visit the following link to book your stay: https://www.sonesta.com/sonesta-hotels-resorts/nc/charlotte/sonesta-charlotte-lower-south-end to book your stay. (Note: a one-night charge will be assessed upon booking. You MUST use this link to secure your room!)
Forward this email to one leader in your life who needs to be in this room with you.

The room is being prepared with you in mind. We hope you will be in it.

With you in the work,
The TFAM Leadership Conference Team

Justice will reign… and we shall rise together in peace. We look forward to seeing YOU at TFAM Leadership Conference 2026. Let’s practice Ubuntu - together.

🌿💚 Join Us Today at 11:00 AM ET! 💚🌿

As we close out Mental Health Awareness Month, we invite you to gather with us online for a powerful and spirit-filled worship experience.

Today, we are honored to welcome Pastor Lucien Washington Watterson V, Pastor of our Mental Health & Wholeness Ministry, as our preacher. Together, we will continue the sacred work of nurturing our minds, tending to our spirits, and reminding one another that healing is holy work.

In a world that often asks us to carry so much, let us pause, worship, reflect, and be renewed in community. Mental health matters. Wholeness matters. You matter.
