Four weeks ago I took a seminary module at Faith Baptist Theological Seminary. One of the “perks” of a module is a less formal dress code than both the college and seminary. So when I went to class that week, I was the “lucky” guy that didn’t have to wear a tie to class.
The Eagle’s Nest erupted with cheers as students heard the name of their school mentioned on national television. Thanksgiving break was only hours away, but the students at little-known Faith Baptist Bible College in Ankeny, IA were excited for a totally unrelated reason.

1 ministry tour that will never be forgotten
As a member of the orchestra at Faith Baptist Bible College, it was a dream of mine the past few years to go on a week-long music ministry tour. Last August I received an email informing the orchestra members that at the end of the 2011-2012 school year, we would finally have that opportunity. But halfway through the fall semester, that dream once again became wishful thinking when I received news that the tour had been cancelled.
So I’m 22 and I’m going to Faith Baptist Bridal College, and I’m still happily single. In fact, I’m exceedingly happily single. But for those of you out there who are searching for that virtuous woman, I have advice on how to get her after you find that girl whose value is far above rubies.
Have you ever thought of time as a piece of music? Perhaps a concerto with millennia as movements, centuries as periods, years as phrases, and weeks as measures?
You and I are each musicians in the largest orchestra ever created, the universe as our hall, the earth as our shell, the angels as our audience, and God as the Maestro. We each have our own responsibility to play our parts correctly, but ultimately it is God who masterfully controls the performance and receives the credit for a piece well-played.
What should I write about next? Are there issues that you are facing or that the church is facing today that need to be addressed? Take 15 seconds to let me know!
