This Panel Got Heated! Dear Future Wifey Live in Ft. Lauderdale at The Faith Center

[@nw33965]

Pastor is right… My 21year old son gets ridiculed and challenged for being his age, handsome, focused on his career in school but still a virgin. I raised my son right. My son values his body and goals. To this day he doesn’t care what others say and I’m grateful. As a single mom raising a man is not easy to God be the glory.

I just came out of a relationship with a man that had potential. He was broken and I believed that God led me to him. He ended up breaking my heart and admitting that he wasn’t the man I thought he was and he never broke up with his previous girlfriend. I ended our engagement and recommended counseling. Most women have been wounded by broken men. I believe we all need to get the help needed before coming into a relationship.

I am lead to believe that many women “Mother” men. They stay in relationships, that we’re draining us for the wrong reasons. I don’t think many women went to the father God, about the relationship and his approval.

[@scelicasmith1605]

My sister in the green jacket said it well! Women should not be the ones responsible for " healing" the men. Broken men need the ear, support of their healed brothers to help them come to a great understand of who they are, and how to grow as faithful, strong men of God. The men have to go first! Please stop asking us women to be everything you need when your strenght and growth and wisdom can only be obtained from God, we have our own work to do.

[@kendramiller4901]

@NonameNoname-lm2zg before going on a journey to forgive and heal I couldn't receive this type of info/teaching because I was broken and it made me the victim in my own eyes now, it didn't excuse the other person's part in the situation but I only saw their faults and not mine, that was the worse place I've ever been in because it made me so miserable. I have more self-awareness now and that helps me to make better choices along with trusting God the results are better than before because I'm viewing things through the healed version of myself. This was really good teaching for me

[@yearinsolitude]

At 40 I gave up on marriage and children. I accepted that it wouldn't happen especially as I am not even seeing any single men within the Christian community. At almost 43 God said to me, "But I never said it wouldn't happen. It will." It's bee. 2.5 years since then and I'm still holding on that promise. It is hard watching the years come and Shanae's statement is so true, it can make you consider other options especially for children. BUT!! God is not a man, he cannot lie. So I'm going to keep trusting and believing for the promise.

[@INGEN_Dahnie-el-aha-ha]

People don't realize that it's OKAY to be single and Child-FREE. I am and I don't regret it. Most people who have children, do so for extremely selfish reasons (to have someone to take care of them in old age, to have a little 'mini-me', etc.ETC.) The 4B Movement is on the rise all over the world. 💯

Potential is not the problem. Inability to execute is the problem. There has to be proof in one or more areas the person can execute from their skills, talent, and gifting. Capable Potential is fertile ground for planting "potent seed."

Reminds me of the guys that were given 5, 2 and 1 talent and the one with one did nothing with his! All of us have been given potential by God however, it's about what you do with what's given. May God give us discernment to know the difference 🙏 🙌

I’m so glad the ladies on the panel were not letting up on the “potential” conversation. I think the confusion is the use of the word potential. Someone not being in an ideal position but they have a certain mindset to want more is what a women should look at , not potential . The graveyard is full of people with wasted potential

[@ms.leslie9114]

I agree. Much respect for Pastor Hernandez but that was not IT.

This was such a mature conversation. I so enjoyed this. I really pray that single women just find you something to do. Plant some flowers, do something different….

It is hard to find the secure Titus couple that are willing to help single people. Another good one Laterras👏🏾

Love do I’m not judging you but do you ever ask GOD do you have a spiritual husband because a lot of Christian have spiritual husband that’s keeping them away from their husband or wife that’s why deliverance is very important in the church and same time you have to look in your bloodline to see what going

All respect to the Bishop, but telling a woman she needs to first be "suitable" seems out of order to me. When Eve was presented to Adam, he wasn't broken and in need of fixing. He was whole and everything was already in place. He just needed help managing it. And that's why God gave him Eve as a suitable helpmeet. But her job was to help NOT fix.

[@kimberlyboston710]

You better teach sis❤❤❤😂

[@scorchedearth824]

And what happened, instead of being the helpmeet that GOD gave him, she desired something else & listened to Satan instead, so really who was really broken? Please reread that scripture, neither one of us come fully healed & since the fall of man in the garden, i believe GOD intended it that way, cause her response sounded she held the moral authority over a man.

[@erikamatthews3622]

@scorchedearth824 I fail to see how that negates my original point. Her job still wasn't to fix him or anything. God does the fixing. The man is the head, so order starts with him. When the fruit was eaten God didn't ask Eve where she was, He asked Adam because that's who He gave the command to: The head. And marriage is the mirror of Christ relationship with the church. Christ is the Head, the church is the bride/body. The church is not supposed to fix Christ, and the woman/wife is not supposed to fix the man/husband.

[@scorchedearth824]

@erikamatthews3622 Who you think told Eve what GOD commanded, but did she listen to Adam, & Adam wasn't complete because everything else was being fruitful & multiplying except Adam, that's why GOD said it's not good for man to be alone. My sister think about it, Eve wanted to be the head & unfortunately that is the problem we have today within our marriages & relationships

[@erikamatthews3622]

​@@scorchedearth824you clearly want to debate and I'm not on that so I'll just drop it off here before I bid you adeu: Being fruitful and multiplying has nothing to do with being complete as a person. There are plenty of broken people out here producing children. But if you go back and reread what you wrote, you'll see you inadvertently agreed with me. You identified the main problem is women wanting to be the head. And you're right, that is a problem because going back to my original point, the man is the head. But my main point (which is what you seem to be missing which is why I'm deading the conversation) is that it is not the woman's job to fix the man as the Bishop stated. Only God can fix people. And God did have everything in place and prepared for Adam, and it was AFTER that when He determined that it wasn't good for Adam to be alone and that he needed HELP... not fixing but help in managing what was there, and help in multiplying to fill the Earth. But producing people to fill the earth was not Eve fixing Adam. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other. I hope you have a wonderfully blessed day.

I’m a man and i dont even really agree with bishop on that one, im a firm believer that as a man the only person who’s love can lift me out of my past hurt and trauma is Jesus christ! now God may direct me to therapy but definitely time in Gods presence and in worship God is a healer emotionally, mentally, spiritually, financially, physically, maybe i’m wrong but i don’t see God sending a wife to heal me, maybe educate me, give me a different perspective on life, etc but not healing me of trauma. Also i disagree on the “putting adam” to sleep also, what i see in the word is the first thing God did for adam is gave him assignments or work, naming all the animals and dressing and keeping the garden before he ever brought eve

[@voniquej]

I didn’t think about asking GOD. I did it on my own because he was in Church?! NOW I know it’s so clear but nobody said ask for this and that. Non negotiables someone who is sold out! Someone who Loves GOD like the air they breathe. Someone who could grow with me and raise our children with principles from the Word. I wished I knew my worth. I knew I was special but not worth my list. But in my heart I felt nobody is perfect but time would bring us to that point. It didn’t! We grew apart. I loved we both loved but being in love was not the level; however GOD worked it out that even though we divorced we could be friends. I tell my daughters and my son pray ask GOD waiting is Ok! Settling is not Ok. Peace is better than doubt, insecurity, and loneliness while in a relationship. This is Good!!!!!

[@kappakapone]

The reality is that the cross-over isn't working either. They're NOT marrying bw. The other reality is that High Earning Woman doesn't equate to being a good companion! Maybe crazy is the wrong adjective to use in that situation. With the type of man that the high earning woman is going for, she most likely Unqualified and Intolerable. So an adjective along the lines of Delusional would be more befitting!

Bishop used him and his wife as an example for “potential” when they were only 19 years old. Back At 19 I too was sharing a meal with my high school sweetheart because we had nothing else. You can’t expect much else at that age. HOWEVER, now at 31 years old??? Oh no, I am not looking for potential anymore, that is not in my ministry. God has worked on me too much and for too long, for me to extend my grace to someone with the POTENTIAL to set me back to the person I used to be before God worked on me. If there is potential for good, there is also potential for bad. I need me a man that is as sure and ground as God has allowed me to be.

I love Tracy so much she’s so real❤❤❤

[@shawnjohnson4059]

This was such an Amazing event. I was there and enjoyed it. So many gems were dropped. You're doing a great job Laterras...keep going.

[@CHARMONTANALEE]

Whew this was too good! Thanks for sharing this panel discussion with us! Much needed!

[@tiqkia1]

My God This was a powerful event. I’m a Pastor’s wife and so many things resonated with me as well as stomped me. Bless you guys for using your gift, authenticity and courage to have such a hard conversation at the Faith Center. This was and is so needed!!

[@nikkibeee8191]

MEN!!! You should'n't expect for somebody else's grown daughters to want you if you wouldnt want the kind of man that you are for your daughters and mother!! Trear women the way you want a man to treat your daughters! Yall keep using that couple as an example but she was only 28 when she met him. They had lots of room for growth. Most 28 yr olds are just getting a rhythm. She said was already a millionaire at 26.. But they were young back then and much much older now! The majority of people on that panel are older folks. Why are yall still talking and giving speeches as if yall are in your 20s? Why you...Bishop, keep making excuses for men in their 40s and 50s still outside playing and expect women to still want them. Know your audience and give advice accordingly.

[@love7ies87]

But who else to give advice then the older folks who have achieved what you desired? I think what the bishop was trying to get across is that you have to make room for your husband's imperfections. I hear a lot of younger women wanting this fairy tale. Thinking that men w/money & degrees=successful marriages automatically. 2 people joining as 1 takes work. I believe he was trying to say don't beat down your partner & be impatient while they are building themselves. If you can't handle building w/someone good bad & ugly you shouldn't get married bc life happens.

[@josephjohnson1057]

The audience doesn’t want good advice. They want the peacher to tell them what they want to hear.

[@ReneeDeane]

@@love7ies87 Imperfections are not you cheating, or beating us, or talking crazy to us, or wasting our money, or not cleaning up after yourself or helping with your kids.

[@love7ies87]

@ReneeDeane But imperfections are just that. I don't advocate for staying w/someone who beats you & I understand some people will leave for cheating. But people want marriage not thinking of the work it takes for 2 to become 1. You come to it w/your own imperfections & work together to make it work. Sometimes women talk crazy to their spouse, nag or w/hold xes & do other imperfect things but all they see is what the man does wrong. Again it takes work to stay on the same page.

[@emilysjoys]

Please interview K.D. Bowe he has a non-profit called “Man Up.” His group answers the charge of mentoring for other men. Please please look him up. He is very serious about the work and seeding into others..

[@DearFutureWifey]

That's my homeboy. Been knowing him for 30 years

[@jenasaisquoi9202]

It is not our responsibility to heal anyone but ourselves. Most times we get beat up or killed trying to "heal" broken things.

[@ambee2cute]

These men are so dismissive of the reality of women’s experiences. A lot of women waste years on potential. Men tend to dislike and reject the woman who helped them. Women with spend years 18 to 35 dating potential. Building men up and then men leave them so they have a fresh woman who looks up at them in awe. When you know the hard times, you pushed a man past his comfort level and you are 1/2 the reason he is great. Most. Do. Not. Like. It. Some won’t even allow you to help and then break up and do exactly what you were suggesting them. Then they go heal, get therapy, invest in themselves and how they look. Men have a serious issue Christian or not with using women for their gain. Although this conversation was good to hear…man 1 pastor who got married at 19(still a child), 1 who had admitted to using his ex up, 1 man who is single giving the excuse that god will tell him. The man who is on stage married that seemed to make an adult choice… contradicts the advice men are giving women. The married woman was intentional on a healed, secure, and financially stable man. I’m not saying skip potential but men have to already be on their path. Just my true belief

[@lightcodes1212]

There’s men ALL OVER THIS WORLD. Please don’t ever settle and don’t ever feel like there’s not enough Christian men. Christians exist all over the world. You just have to expand your horizons, beyond your town/country/race etc. May the Holy Spirit guide and protect. Amen.

[@candicane1]

Definitely watching bc the lady speaking in the intro was incredibly on point! 🎯

[@lavondahawkins7898]

Yes Bishop! Women were created to be a helpmeet!

[@NonameNoname-lm2zg]

Don't tell them that.

[@ReneeDeane]

@@NonameNoname-lm2zg Yall arent worth helping.

[@perfumelover777]

I absolutely love this podcast very informative. At 49 years old I’m still learning and really enjoyed listening to everyone. I could listen to the Bishop all day he’s very wise and hilarious 😂😂😂. Would love to see part two with the same panel. 🙏🏼

[@shantakoa8596]

Great panel. I love Dear Future Wifey but I am at an overflow of relationship information. God bless ❤

[@DearFutureWifey]

I understand

[@grace2garden403]

So understandable. Thanks for sharing this comment.

[@paulabowman2776]

This was exceptionally good. From beginning to the end, every part is so valuable!!!!! Dr Lynn and CB gave me so much life. David and I have a lot to talk about tonight. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@debraprice1593]

Why is it up to the woman to heal the man Bishop?

[@tatianadaniel3569]

Right!!! Men never look to heal broken women. They always want us to be healed so we can be their "pEaCe".

[@candicane1]

Exactly! That’s where Bishop lost it.

[@INGEN_Dahnie-el-aha-ha]

💯 OKAY?! We're not in the "Build-A-Bear/Build-A-Man" business

[@LBright4444]

Certain things only God can do

[@bridgetsebolai6207]

What a wholesome captivating discussion. Thanks again Latteras for your gift and bringing all these awesome gifted people we appreciate the wisdom ❤❤❤

[@LRamey]

Thank you ladies for keeping it real on the podium cause ain’t no way💯💯💯💯🔥🔥

[@kimster4116]

My God this is amazing. I’m so grateful for this platform.

[@KyMiche978]

We have to delight ourselves in the Lord before he gives us the desires and petitions of our heart. Joy, pleasure, and satisfaction in the Lord.

[@julietlove3831]

Wow, this Pastor just nearly on the wall amazing very right the marriage is not all about the wedding dresses or the Diamont ring marriage is more than that hallelujah thanks a bunch pastor Sir ❤❤❤

[@WhoIsTheeMeister]

It’s this disconnect in believers that God won’t align them with who they need. God has called people to one person, God knows when you and that person need to meet. Rarely do people try to place themselves at locations at meet their spouse. It mostly wasn’t the plan or it was somewhere they didn’t want to go and somehow ended up going! I met my husband through searching for a muse through my music video, meanwhile I saw him 4 times before that at the gas station and it wasn’t time then at all! I wanted him and everything but I wasn’t going to treat him right! My first client was his girlfriend when we were teenagers and she would talk to me about him, I didn’t know him! His father stayed exactly 4 blocks from my father! We went the same places and knew the same people! Didn’t meet him! God knows when! Every question you ask a human, ask God! God will tell you how to prepare!

[@caterpillar_properties]

OMG....yesssss, I remember her now. I used to buy her jewelry all the time. Wowwww!!! I love how God has her speaking to my spirit now, after being drawn to her (and not even knowing why) way back then.

[@michellemorris9181]

Once again this was a great Podcast for me. I love the transparency and the healthy conversations that happened. Even though some may not have agreed with each other there was still respect and that is what needs to happen in relationships.

[@dr.tracilynn2617]

This conversation was everything! Whew you brought some stuff out of me! Lol thank you for having us. Amazing time!

[@suesue9235]

Come on Marcus, I always love your reasoning...Its a good place to start ensuring you are ready for marriage prior to getting married.....

[@donnawarren4401]

I absolutely, positively love Bishop Fernandez ❤ A man of wisdom. So refreshing

[@indelible_]

This was a excellent episode! I truly enjoyed it.

[@razoraikens5567]

i used to be a member of the faith Center i loved it...i also attended quite a few free gospel concerts there... Bishop Fernandez is the truth!!!!

[@SheelahA74]

“Not fix it, lift it, shift it whatever she does is going to change” 😂🤣……straight facts Bishop has preached a whole sermon 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@Iamkeonnashauntae]

I love hearing older souls talk about love and what they been through the stories are funny, beautiful,wise and knowledgeable at the same time. LOVE is so beautiful, no matter my past hurts from others I still believe in love and my husband is coming this year I’m ready for you babe. ❤my advice to anyone that has been hurt, take time out to yourself, admit what hurt you day by day be committed to learning YOI all over again and this time our god in it

[@glendapate1960]

I am 64 years old. Are there any opportunities out here to have a godly husband?

[@shareenladd1048]

I sure would accept the small gesture ❤. A blessing is a blessing when it’s coming from the one God has ordained

[@nancyrogers8758]

You must go towards the potential. Potential means nothing if you are not going towards the potential to fulfill it.

[@kerennongho]

That's exactly my experience. Being down for a man, gave up my potentials, dreams more than 10 years and all I got was for him to make me feel I was the one who who wounded. Sooo sad right. Now I know God was never in my choice of that man as a husband ever in my life. Made choices out of a place of imaturity, situationship, naive and what have you.

[@herfamiller139]

[@phyllsjohnson2563]

This was a very informative setting. I had aha moments and much laughter. I enjoyed this a podcast as always.❤

[@QueenNeLee]

Excuse my French but man I laughed my A** off at this episode 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 maannnnn this was a good one! Laterras PLEASE interview that woman who’s been married 5 times. I’m interested in hearing her story

[@josephjohnson1057]

Maybe she’s picking or attracted to bad men? Most Christian marriages I know are still going after many years. There are good men out there you all pick wrong.

[@QueenNeLee]

@@josephjohnson1057 that’s why I said that I’m interested in hearing her story! Clearly she picked wrong if she’s been married all those times 🤦🏽‍♀️ that doesn’t mean that God can’t use her to help single women to pick right after hearing the mistakes she has made

[@Godsdestiny4us]

WOW WOW WOW.....I just heard the intro of this woman talking and she already was DROPPIN GEMS 💎...BARS!!!!!! Now, I need to listen to the entire podcast. Thank you... L.R.W love your shows ❤️

[@feliciajohnson1913]

I LOVED this panel! The realness was REAL. The one thing that I did notice is when the woman said she had been married 5 times, I do understand people reacting, especially if you have never known someone who has been married that number of times. It was announced that it was a safe space and place, but it really wasn't. I am glad she is self-assured AND unbothered!!!😂😂😂 Excellent episode, nonetheless.

[@renewashington9119]

A YEAR, or 12 Months, is a Sufficient amount of time for an Engagement Period and for one to DECIDE whether or not to Move Forward into Marriage.

[@crystalatkins8186]

The "counsel" given by this bishop.....was horrendous!!!!

Bishop Fernandez, thank you for allowing Latteras to grace your stage with his podcast. 👍🏽❤ This panel was amazing! I have a deep love for men getting healed and transforming into the MAN God desires. Calling ALL MEN, make your way to The Potter's House of Dallss, Tx. TX. October 17th - 19th to attend the "As A Man Thinketh Conference." Bishop Jakes would love to see you. Be healed & remain blessed. ❤👑
