It’s time for our next marriage retreat. We’re so excited about seeing marriages like yours grow and get stronger.
Wherever you are in your marriage, you can take it to the next level with a Bible-based marriage retreat. Couples will get away and work on some of the most common marriage issues like communication, conflict resolution, growth in intimacy, and help understanding why you or your spouse responds as you do at times.
You’ll also enjoy beautiful accommodations and time spent with each other.
My husband and I will be leading the retreat. Mike is a pastor and biblical counselor and I’m a certified biblical counselor. Besides leading retreats and conferences, we started and ran a biblical counseling center for twelve years and have been counseling couples for twenty-plus years. By God’s grace, we have seen hundreds of marriages change and grow over the years.
What Other Participants Have to Say:
“We truly believe the Lord placed you in our lives when we needed it most. Thank you so much!”

Why We Do What We Do
If you are coming from out of town, Ruidoso is a 2 ½-hour drive from El Paso, Texas.
*We believe in a biblical view of marriage as between one biological man and one biological woman. And while we will meet privately with couples about their particular situation, retreats are only open to couples who meet those qualifications.

Perhaps you or someone you know is married to an unbeliever. While it can be challenging, the Bible can help you live in that situation. That's our subject for today.
Submission, it's the "S-word" that raises our blood pressure and, sometimes, makes us wonder about God's idea of fairness. What is submission, anyway? Is it unfair to women? Is it unrealistic? Did men come up with the idea as a way to keep women down? Or is it really a biblical concept? If so, what should it look like?
"Communication is to a relationship what blood is to the human body. Communication nourishes and sustains a relationship. Remove it, and you no longer have a relationship."
The Bible has much to say about the importance of healthy communication and the results of bad communication. James said the tongue can be "set on fire by hell." So, how can couples grow and become more intentional when it comes to healthy communication?
Donna, I love that you and your husband host marriage retreats! My husband and I have been to some good ones over the years. I hope this upcoming one is hugely impactful for the couples who attend!
