Subject: 25 years of marriage
WHEN I WAS MARRIED 25 YEARS, I TOOK A LOOK AT MY WIFE ONE DAY AND SAID,
‘HONEY, 25 YEARS AGO WE HAD A CHEAP APARTMENT, A CHEAP CAR, SLEPT ON A SOFA

Within an approximately 2-mile stretch of La Puente Road in Walnut, there are 4 Protestant churches. At least 2 of those churches share their facilities with another church. So that’s 6 churches within walking distance of one another.

But when it comes to personal relationships, people don’t think they have to work at having a good relationship.
I suppose when you are dating, you do work to impress the other person. You do nice things for them to make them…
Art Levinson, CEO of Genentech, on the Board at Google, says, “Here I am, a guy who can afford a good meal, and every time I go to a Google board meeting, I don’t leave until ten o’clock at night because I get a free dinner there.”
Google is so known for their food.
“The failures of our faith do not frustrate the purposes of God.”
I think that is consistent with the concept of the sovereignty of God.
Where then does faith fit in? I think the overall purposes of God will to fulfilled, but I am the one who will miss out if I fail in my faith.
