Endure Daniel Ritchie

Being a good spouse and a good parent is hard. Being a good spouse and parent while also in ministry is stress to the max. Doing all of that during COVID and an election is almost unfathomable.
This week we're talking about how to managed all of that with Roland and Tammy Martinez. They have dedicated themselves to teaching and discipling others.  Initially serving in Christian education and pastoral ministry together in Miami and Ft. Myers, Florida. Eventually moving to Charlotte, Roland served as a full-time pastor where he and Tammy counseled couples and helped them to build God-honoring faith relationships. After pioneering the ministry of Christian Family Life in Caribbean and Latin American countries, Roland became the president of Christian Family Life in 2013. Roland and Tammy are frequently asked to teach church leadership the faith principles and share their application in seminars with couples. They have six children ranging in age from elementary school to college graduates and are active parents, residing in Charlotte, NC.

It seems like the contentious nature of our day is stressing relationships to the point where friendships are being broken up and bridges are being burnt. This week, we look at the Christian response when people are hurt and sinned against. We're looking at forgiveness. 
 
This is a sermon that Daniel preached this past Sunday at Denver Baptist Church from Ephesians 4:32.
