Wherever you are in your marriage, you can take it to the next level with a Bible-based marriage retreat. At a Joyful Marriages, 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 we respond as we do at times. You’ll also enjoy beautiful accommodations and time spent with a small group and alone as a couple.
My husband and I will be leading the retreats. He is a pastor and biblical counselor. And I’m a biblical counselor, certified through the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors.
For those who don’t know us, we started and ran a biblical counseling center for twelve years and have been counseling couples for twenty-plus years. We hope you will join us for one of these encouraging and helpful getaways.
Retreats include:
Two-nights in a beautiful B&B (see photos below) just outside Ruidoso, New Mexico
Private room & bath, each with its own whirlpool
All but one meal included (that evening is reserved for a date night)
All materials
Biblically based marriage sessions
One-on-one follow-up with each couple, if desired
The next scheduled marriage retreat is October 20-22. Regular price is $600 per couple. But because of a scholarship provided by a generous donor, we can offer this retreat for only $350 per couple, meals and accommodations included as listed above.

Welcome to Mondays @ Soul Survival. Each week I feature a book that I consider a valuable resource. This week's selection is Sweethearts for a Lifetime: Making the Most of Your Marriage by Wayne and Carol Mack.
Marriage is a covenant relationship. As I said last week, many today regard marriage as permanent as long as they're happy and things work out. But when the other person is no longer meeting their perceived needs or they're simply not happy, they believe they're free to break that covenant.
At best, most think of marriage as a legally binding contract. Contracts are entered into for a variety of reasons. They can be negotiated and with the right attorney are often broken or nullified. Not so with a covenant.
