Perennially Rejected, Forever Loved - Pete Odera
Navigating the adult world is confusing and frustrating for any young man. Pete Odera was trying to mark his space in the adult world, build a fledgling career as a minister of God's word, an artiste and find love to last a lifetime. Pete was rejected thrice by women he thought were 'the one.' This dented his confidence seriously and he decided to be done with women. He built up a wall to protect himself from being hurt ever again.
Then love found him, love like he would never have imagined. Love so giving and so pure. This love has transformed him and stayed by his side for more than 2 decades. This is a story of hope, of faith, a story of love.
Love takes courage. Love trusts. Love sees who you can become and how much better you can become.

Powerful words..." I thought I was the lover until I was loved like this. Love is not romance. Love is selfless, Love trusts, Love sees who you are and who you can become. Love conquers all. Love takes courage and faith. Love is a choice. I am learning to live with the fear of rejection because I know that LOVE conquers fear."

Does anyone else pick up on how soothing his voice is? I could listen to him narrating a story for hours and never interject! It's truly a God-given gift!

It's 2023 & I am here. I am 25 and still trying to figure out every aspect of my life. Pete, I am truly inspired by your story.
Quite the storyteller, beautifully narrated life story. "I know the plans I have for you," said the Lord...
"i thought i was the lover until i was loved like this" those words spoke to me.all the best Pete
There's still hope and restoration for those who are heartbroken,just hold on,it's a matter of time

Wow you are so kind.
In this world full of 'glamorous' tales of who Mr Right should be, with lists and list of external qualities that pass muster and that meet the approval of others, this story of finding real love, that stems from the inside is very refreshing. Moving lessons to learn about the yardsticks to truly measure true love against. Qualities that rise from the inside. Thank you for sharing so candidly Pete Odera.

CAROL, You're a gifted writer. I bet you speak well too
I had to rewatch this over and over again
Well articulated story . I dont know why God would let even his own faithful minister kiss frogs before he met the right one. As young people we should learn to just love for the wrong reasons that ends us up rejecting or heartbreaking each other. Being rejected can harbour a lifetime pain. Pete you are strong and am glad you finally got love ,true love..

@T C literally
It hurts to love & not be loved back . At times it makes us lose our life ordained soulmates. that's an encouraging one Pete may you continue to enjoy the blissful love
''I felt blackmailed!'' SIGH....Love, love Love!!
You're rare Pete. Men have been taught to think being vulnerability means being weak. You're strong, talented, amazing and more.
Beautiful story, mtumishi on trial, a romantic😆😅😂,the end is was so intense 😢 Love believes, loves sees who you can become👍👍
How eloquent and well spoken he actually is.
Beautified soothing voice of narrating story of love 💕 “I thought I was the lover until I was loved this way”.(love conquers all) Pete you’re the best and your voice is masterpiece
Pastor Pete is very humorous. I remember him ministering at Dc Donholm ,occupy conference. Always a pleasure listening to hi.
My mentor. AND a GREAT musician. I Saw you play at Michael Joseph center and we talked for a bit. Your words To me and musical touch inspired me and my guitar\acoustic career. God Bless your soul
Pete, listening to you is refreshing. You're an amazing orator!
This story resonates well with my experiences but beyond the rejection, I know there is hope and restoration for anyone experiencing rejection

Pastor Pete Odera's family was rich, imagine in the year 1996 they had a functioning landline phone at their house! I wish he could have talked about his upbringing and how it may have contributed to the series of rejections. God bless you Pastor.
