Soon, Kenneth began teaching other believers about the covenant rights he and Gloria had discovered. What they learned individually, they shared with one another, stirring each other up and helping each other to mature in Christ. Together, Kenneth and Gloria grew stronger in the Word and in faith. how to walk by faith and not by sight, how to trust wholeheartedly in the integrity of the Word of God, and how to declare the Word in and over every situation. Together, Kenneth and Gloria learned from Kenneth Hagin, Sr. As Oral Roberts’ pilot and ministry helper, Kenneth learned how to minister in excellence and keep Jesus at the center of every endeavor. The Lord began training them in the principles of faith. They didn’t know it yet, but God was preparing them for their future. They were filled with the Holy Spirit in January of 1963. They accepted Jesus as Lord six months after they married. He fell in love with her at first sight and asked her to marry him on their first date. Meeting her convinced him otherwise, though. The effects were so profound that he doubted that love even existed. Kenneth admits that at the time he met Gloria he was struggling with depression and anger. She’s wondered many times if the light was God’s way of getting her attention and leading her down an extraordinary path. It was only years later that she learned that the room where they met had no window at all.
She assumed he was standing in front of a window.
Gloria recalls that when her father introduced them, there was light all around Kenneth. They hadn’t known each other long, less than six months, but they both now admit that there was something special about the first time they met. Gloria was a 20-year-old college student. At the time, their marriage seemed like an everyday union. 60 years ago this month, a union took place that changed the course of history for many-Kenneth Copeland and Gloria Neece wed in Little Rock, Ark.
