Kerri Pomarolli asks herself, ‘If I’m waiting on God…’

Wednesday, April 26th, 2006

‘… then what am I doing in a Christian chatroom?’

Kerri’s new book “If I’m Waiting on God Then What Am I Doing in a Christian Chatroom… Confessions of a do-it-yourself single” is now available online and has been internationally released by Zondervan publishing.

If I'm Waiting on God Then What Am I Doing in a Christian Chatroom... Confessions of a do-it-yourself single

Go to Kerri’s website www.kerripom.com to get this book, read sample chapters, and more!

Kerri was sick of reading books about nice women who got married after puberty and then tried to give advice. “I didn’t meet my husband till I was 17 and I’m so glad I waited.” Well Kerri wanted to write a book from the perspective of a woman in the trenches… out there trying to meet “Mr Right”. Some of her pro-active tactics and comical musings on the dating life of a modern LA girl will make you laugh out loud. This book is a touching, hysterical, heartbreaking and a sweet journey in one girl’s search for love.

Here’s a personal message from Kerri:

Hello there my friends, family and colleagues, I’d like to take this opportunity to tell you how truly thrilled I am about this 5 yr. journey. I wrote this as a labor of love (mostly ranting and raving at my computer at 1:00am after bad dates). But I believe in the message that “single is not a terminal disease” and laughter really is the best medicine in any situation.

By the way, Kerri hosted the pre-show at the 2006 GMA Music Awards in Nashville earlier this month. Click on the pic below for video clips from the post-show press conference…

If we don’t worship You, we’ll search for substitutes

Wednesday, April 26th, 2006

Vicky Beeching

If we don’t worship You
we’ll search for substitutes
to fill the void in our soul

Worshiping other things
destroys our liberty
but as we praise You we are free

‘Cause we were created to worship Your name
We were created to bring You our praise

So we will worship
So we will praise
You are creator
for all our days

This is what we were made to do
So we lift up our praise to You…

Vicky Beeching - ‘Created’ Windows Media Real Media

It blows my mind to think that we were designed and created by God to worship Him. That is one of the primary destinies of the human race…to be God-worshippers. So when we stand together in sung worship, we aren’t just doing something we enjoy – we are fulfilling a huge part of our destiny as humans, and doing what we were created for.

When we look around in our culture, worship is everywhere. It’s pretty obvious that we were innately wired to be worshippers. Just look at the intense sports fan glued to the latest team game. Or the teenage girl with a wall full of Brad Pitt posters. Or the guy standing wide-eyed as he watches his favourite band rocking out on stage. We are worshippers. If we don’t go with God’s original plan (worshipping Him) we will always find substitutes. These will damage and destroy us, whereas worshipping God will bring us into the freedom and wholeness He intended us to have,

This song was inspired by seeing people worship so many things other than God, in the culture around us. It’s an exploration of the theology of worship; why we do it and what happens when we don’t. It’s a reminder that we are just dust shaped by God, that even our breath is a gift from Him, and when we breathe it back to Him in worship we are fulfilling our highest calling. - Vicky
