Marriages over time

My husband and I were married four years when I first felt it. I woke up, looked at him, and thought, “this is as good as it gets?” Don’t get me wrong, our marriage was fine. But I wanted more than fine. I wanted dazzling. and exciting. I wanted more.

One year later I filed for divorce.

The good news is that I came to my senses and we’ve now been married almost 29 years. You can see more about that story in my trailer for my signature presentation. At this point in our marriage, we hadn’t done anything special to preserve our marriage – no marriage retreats or counseling.

What I’ve learned after nearly three decades is that marriages are like life – they have ups and downs. It’s the down seasons that can really try a marriage. Marriages that stand the test of time persevere. They keep going through the ups, downs, and in-betweens.

Marriage Retreats

Marriage retreats are a great way to persevere. The problem is that many cost a lot of money – upwards of $750 for conference fees, hotel, and food. In addition, not everyone wants to talk about their marriage. Not everyone wants to discuss intimate marital issues in an arena full of people.

I’m here to help! I have created a Marriage Retreat in a Bag and it will soon be available. With this at-home marriage retreat you’ll explore 10 important marital topics in the privacy of your own home. If you’d like, go ahead and get a hotel room, you’ll STILL come out hundreds of dollars below a traditional retreat.

With my marriage retreat you’ll get worship videos, faith based teaching videos, ambiance starters, a retreat planner, journals, pens, a workbook and an action plan. All this goodness comes in a tote to keep it all handy. Even more, it’s at a very affordable price point.

Coming soon…

This Marriage Retreat in a Bag will be available in April, 2023. I’ll be sure to post a link as soon as it’s available. In the meantime, talk with your spouse. Maybe this is something you’d like to give each other for Easter or your upcoming anniversary.

In the meantime, here’s an article with 5 simple things you can do TODAY to help your marriage. 💕
