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.
