As a people of God, made in His image, we are called to care for the orphan. Most of us automatically think of adoption and foster care as the means of doing so; however, allow me to further the pressure on you, it is but a means of caring for the fatherless. God, in His sovereignty, has created a multitude of avenues for you to be obedient his call to care for the orphans.

We Love Fort Worth. We Love Jesus.
“But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare.” (Jeremiah 29:7)
We Love Fort Worth is a City Engagement ministry of The Paradox Church seeking radical justice for the oppressed and compassion for the poor. A love that flows from the love of Christ himself and the compassion he has shown us. “He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God.” (Micah 6:8)
Jesus came to proclaim good news to the poor, freedom to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind, and freedom for all who are oppressed (Luke 14:18-21). He let a prostitute wash his feet with her hair, he touched lepers, he welcomed tax-collectors. He takes what is broken and redeems it, he meets people where they are at and leads them out of darkness into his marvelous light.
