How Can We Serve YOU?
It's our honor to support you ...
“Whenever Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed, and whenever he lowered his hand, Amalek prevailed. Moses’s hands grew weary, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it, while Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side.
So, his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. And Joshua overwhelmed Amalek and his people with the sword.
Exodus 17:10-13
Who holds up your hands? Yes, you have a leadership team and friendships you and God have careful formed. Still, there are battles too big and too numerous for one shepherd to care for.
The Battle for Marriage is one such fight. Whether it's the cultural battle the Church faces with statistics that mirror the world or the strain ministry and life puts on even the best of marriages, our calling is to come alongside pastors to hold up their arms in this arena! After reading Dangerous Calling by Paul David Tripp years ago, we became increasingly aware of pastors being largely outside of the circle of care the church community provides its members. Who takes care of those who take care of us? We have counseled many pastors through the challenges of ministry, the weight that places on their marriage and family and the gap in training for helping the troubled marriages within our congregations. It would be our privileged to support YOU!
First, help us learn more about what you need as a Pastor or Church Leader. Please take this short, confidential survey so we can hold up your hands in your vital work as man, husband, father and leader!
Second, our calling is to bring down the divorce rate in the Church through helping to create a top-down Culture of Marriage. Leaders who have solid marriages with common language to lead their congregations from adults to children in building God's plan for marriage and family are needed like never before! This includes private counseling and Marriage Reboot Intensives in our country home for authentically healthy, well cared for leadership families.
Lastly, we exist to teach others what we didn't know - how to have an amazing, impactful, legacy leaving marriage that shines God's Light and Love to our generations and the world! We do this through speaking, retreats, our Your Marriage Matters podcast, and in-person and virtual counseling and coaching services.
Below are some short videos to get to know us better. David and I are teachers at heart, called to share our story along with all the skills, insight and hope we have gained in 26 years of marriage and over a decade of helping hundreds of couples one-on-one and thousands more in classes, retreats, from stage and even just talking in the grocery store line or to our food server.
Marriage is our Mission and bringing down divorce rates in the Church is our Vision!
