Next 3 Sundays Will Be Fun!!

By Manny Rivera | July 3, 2011 |

I love to share the pulpit with my wife. I love her practicality and her realness. Working in the ministry with her is just plain fun. I really have no idea what I would do and who I would be without her. Victoria, I love you so much!

That’s why I’m so excited about our current message series, 20/20 Marriage Perspective. We will share the 20 things we’ve learned in 20 years of marriage.

It’s unfortunate that in today’s society 20 years of marriage is a major accomplishment but to the Kingdom of God, it’s really intermediate. We’re only part of the way there – for covenant is supposed to be permanent.

We know we’re just “ a work in progress” but knowing that is half the battle. We’ve come a long way – through many dangers, toils and snares. And we also know that we have some rough terrain in our future – but if we won in the past, we’ll win again!

We pray that what we share these next three weeks will better prepare people for marriage. Additionally, we desire to inspire those, who are married, to make the proper adjustments in their relationship.

Man, I’m more in love today!! And don’t laugh at my hair!!! 🙂

It was a great service. Thanking for sharing from your hearts and life. You both are true examples of being real. I can not wait for next Sunday.

I know that when you hit 20 years you know that she is the one for you and you know that she will be right by your side.

Pastor Manny and Pastor Victoria,great beginning for this series.
Beautiful bride and handsome man with gorgeous hair. On the serious
side: All men,women, children youth and teenagers PLEASE listen and
honor them: for what they are saying is from love from their hearts.
The choices we make today affect our tomorrows. I know! Don’t look
for love in all the wrong places for you can only find it with God. Only
one question I had for Pastor Manny was where were you when I was
16? Count your blessing for you are here in this church with them

That is so true that now finding a marriage survive for 20 years is getting harder to find. In the kingdom a covenant is a life long agreement not just until we are tire. We most honor God with our decisions and what God put together nothing can break it.
