This section will help you find answers to common questions and understand our Policies, Agreements, and Bylaws, and how your contributions help STBE's Vision and Mission come true.
All donations given to STBE Ministry are recycled back into the community. How? Your donations help us fund the programs offered at STBE, including retreats, workshops, conferences, and biblical counseling. When you donate, not only do you contribute to the materials we need to provide the programs, but your donation also makes it possible for participants who can't afford these programs to access them free of charge. One way to observe the impact of your donations is by becoming a Class Member, which automatically grants donors access to information about our activities at STBE and how their contributions benefit the community.
No refunds are available at STBE Corp. All products, sales, and service fees or prices are final. Donations, purchases, or participation in any of our areas of service means you have understood this policy.
The answer is simple. Here at STBE, we promote integrity and transparency. As a new organization, we aim to provide our staff, volunteers, and visitors with a clear understanding of how this organization operates. These policies, agreements, and bylaws are subject to change at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
To empower the community with Christ-centered support, STBE recognizes the importance of unity and advocacy among the Christian community. Our unity and advocacy derive from the biblical principles found in John 13:34-35, which tells us that others will know we are of Christ when we love one another. 1 John 4:7 teaches us that we must love one another because love is from God and those who love are born of God. 1 Peter 4:8 encourages us to love one another because love covers a multitude of sins. Galatians 6:2 instructs believers to bear one another's burdens. Hebrews 10:24-25 It enables us to consider how to stir up one another to love, to do good works, and not to neglect meeting together. Other biblical principles that set the foundation for STBE's Information Network are the principles of unity and teaching. We are to avoid selfish motives, or seeking our own gain, Philippians 2:3-4, 1 Corinthians 10:24, James 3:16, Psalm 119:36, Proverbs 11:25, Mark 8:36, and 1 Timothy 6:10. Each of these is not just a foundation here at STBE Information Network; we understand the importance of each principle and aim to put them into practice unapologetically. We believe and understand that unity helps the body of Christ stay healthy and strong. It is always our hope that we will find Churches, services, and programs that share the same principles, and that is the information we will share. STBE holds the right to deny the sharing of the information provided on this website. All information provided here is free of cost to those we promote; thus, we hope that they will help us grow with the same love and devotion we do unto others by sharing our information and encouraging others to serve or participate at STBE. We love serving the community and our family in Christ, and we believe supporting others' work brings glory to God and promotes spiritual, mental, and physical wellness.

Empowering Lives Through Christ-Centered Support

Seeing Through Blind Eyes Corp
Policy
Adopted: 06/01//2025
The following policy presented here pertains to Seeing Through Blind Eyes Corp employees, volunteers, and participants.
Introduction
Seeing Through Blind Eyes Corp (STBE) is a Non-Profit Organization. As a Christian Organization, our first vision and mission are to share the Gospel. Second, this Organization is a service provider. We empower communities with Christ-centered support. We offer a range of support programs, including mentorship, biblical counseling, life coaching, retreats, support groups, and conferences.
Additionally, we maintain a "toolbox" of networks. These network connections are understood to be Christ-centered and community-driven, ensuring that our participants benefit from available programs and support. These networks comprise other organizations that offer a range of services promoting spiritual, mental, and physical well-being.
Our foundational biblical text is Hebrews 11, which is often referred to as "Faith in Action." We believe God's perfect will is the answer to all of our questions. Faith in Action encompasses biblical foundations, values, and principles that promote worship of God, as well as spiritual, mental, and physical wellness. Our call is to stand in the gap between the centralized Church and the broader public. We understand that Jesus clearly explained in Matthew 22:37-40, Mark 12:28-34, and Luke 10:25-28 that the fulfillment of the law depends on these two most important commandments: to love God with all our mind, heart, soul, and strength, and to love others as ourselves. Because we love God first, we now have the second commandment at hand, and Seeing Through Blikd Eyes Corp is dedicated to promoting these crucial commandments by loving all people within our communities.
We understand that the task is not easy, but we are determined to be a vessel of biblical truth and love, as God calls us. Within our vision and mission, we see many people from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and social statuses come to Christ, accepting Him as Lord and Savior, and embarking on a journey of Faith in Action for God's glory. Seeing Through Blind Eyes means seeing through the cross of Christ, and seeing through His eyes. Therefore, our purpose and commitment are to love God and love the community.
