Follow-up Single "He Welcomes the Beggar” Impacting Radio Now

Nashville, Tennessee (October 6, 2016) -- Award-winning Gospel artist 11th Hour recently scored its third consecutive #1 song. The song, "Can You Burn”, spent four weeks in the #1 spot on the AbsolutelyGospel.com Top 40 Weekly Chart last month, and it was just announced as the #1 song on the upcoming November edition of the Singing News Top 80 monthly chart.

11th Hour’s Amber Eppinette stated, " We want to say a huge thank you to the writer, Dianne Wilkinson, to our record company, Crossroads Label Group for all of your hard work and support, to the DJs and radio stations for playing our music, to the Beckie Simmons Agency for their hard work keeping us busy singing the music we love, and AG Publicity for their support of our group.”

"Can You Burn” follows the group’s two previous #1 hit singles - "Jesus Is In The House” and "Mountain Moving Faith.” The single was penned by award-winning songwriter Dianne Wilkinson ("Boundless Love”, "Good News From Jerusalem”) and has a message challenging each of us to "burn” for the Lord.

The group just released the follow-up single to "Can You Burn” this month. The song, titled "He Welcomes the Beggar”, was written by Eppinette along with Kenna West and Jason Cox. The song can be found on Crossroads Music Group’s October 2016 radio compilation.

U.S. Murder Offenders by Race: 2023 FBI Data

  Data on murders (homicides) committed by race in the United States primarily comes from the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, which relies on reports from law enforcement agencies. The most recent detailed breakdown available is for 2023, but due to the FBI's transition to a new reporting system (NIBRS), not all agencies submitted complete data—only about 70-80% of the population was covered, so totals are undercounts. These figures represent known offenders (where race was identified), not arrests or convictions, and include single-offender and multi-offender incidents. In 2023, there were approximately 15,708 known murder offenders with identified race. Here's the breakdown: Race Number of Offenders Percentage of Known Offenders Rate per 100,000 Population White 8,842 56.3% 3.51 Black or African American 6,405 40.8% 14.00 Other (American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander) 461 2.9% 1.31 Notes on the...
