Hard to believe we are just a few days away from the 10th Anniversary ceremonies for September 11, 2001. I wrote this song shortly after the events of that day, and I would like to share the resources with you for your service or event.

“I Want to Marry a Virgin”

tomsterbens@aol.com (Tom Sterbens) — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 15:33:48 +0000

Today I read a blog post from a Christian teacher that said these words, “I would hate to be looking for a wife today, because I wanted to marry a virgin and I did.” First, let me say I understand the spiritual, psychological and moral value of virginity. I have taught it, and I will [...]

Rejoice in the Lord Always! (It’s just that simple… right?)

Philippians 4:4,6,8-9 (NASB95) 4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God which surpasses all comprehension will guard your hearts and mind in Christ Jesus.

What Do You Dwell On?

tomsterbens@aol.com (Tom Sterbens) — Mon, 27 Dec 2010 20:05:03 +0000

Philippians 4:8 (NASB95) 8Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things. The word translated ‘dwell’ here is also translated to ‘calculate or reckon.’ What is the [...]

Be Encouraged!

tomsterbens@aol.com (Tom Sterbens) — Thu, 23 Dec 2010 12:23:23 +0000

The word translated ‘encourage’ in the New Testament is so great! It means something like “to call along side, to call out.” Simply put, I believe the word may suggest two unique dynamics that are part of encouragement… (1) to “call alongside” – for help or aid - you know, “to be there!” and (2) [...]

Remember the proposition: “Mercy is the force of God’s refusal to join us in validating any identity other than sin or judgment would give us.” Matthew [...]
