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. We have been counseling couples for twenty-plus years and, by God’s grace, have seen hundreds of marriages change and grow over the years.

*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 open to couples who meet those qualifications. You can read more about a biblical view of marriage and what we believe by clicking the “what we believe” tab.

Have you ever wished someone could hand you a step-by-step plan for changing your husband—or your wife?
Most of us have tried. We've explained, reminded, pointed out problems, offered advice, and perhaps even repeated ourselves a few times. Yet somehow the results are often disappointing.
But what if the very thing we think will produce change is actually making it harder?
In today's reading, Proverbs paints a vivid picture of one kind of spouse and then contrasts it with another. The difference isn't personality, intelligence, or even spiritual maturity. It's something far more practical—and surprisingly powerful.
Could the best way to influence your spouse be the exact opposite of what comes naturally to most of us?
The Wife's Role: If there is one aspect of marriage that is often turned upside-down in today's culture, it's the roles of husbands and wives. If there's one issue that is usually part and parcel of marriage conflict, it's the roles of husbands and wives. If there is one subject that is most often misunderstood, it's this one.
Marriage can be one of the greatest human relationships there is. It can offer companionship, friendship, intimacy, and someone to rely on through the ups and downs of life. But sometimes marriage isn't what you expected. Often marriage will test you in ways you weren't prepared for.
