Just as a follow-up to my previous post . . . this past weekend's Marriage Intensive was nothing short of miraculous! All three couples reported to us they experienced major shifts and breakthroughs in their marriages! Just read some of their comments:

“Our marriage was ready for divorce, I was ready to file. We tried marriage counseling many times before but nothing seemed to help. This was our final hope. On the 2nd day, while sharing our hurts with each other, we had a major breakthrough and a major shift in our marriage. God has definitely been moving within each of us and our marriage the entire weekend in such a mighty way. I am so grateful for the insight and tools I have learned from this weekend. I finally have hope for restoration and healing in our marriage. Thank you!!!” - Allison

“Before coming here, I never heard my wife or saw where she was coming from. This weekend helped a lot on how to speak with her and see her in the way she was needing me to see and talk to her and listen.” - Tim

“In the last few years some very unhealthy patterns had developed and we were impacted by infidelity. This weekend gave us specific, practical and realistic tools to use to overcome serious challenges and to disrupt unhealthy habits. We are hopeful again and were reminded that we are on the same team. Thank you!” - Jackie

“We have been able to see that our hurting behaviors are innate and not intended to hurt the other; we are not each other’s enemy. We owe more to you guys now than what we paid!” - Anna

Our next "The HEART of Marriage" Intensive is scheduled for September 29-October 1. Please let anyone you know, near or far, who are also needing a breakthrough or to improve their marriage!

We are just about ready to present another The HEART of Marriage Intensive. Three couples, representing three marriages in crisis, with one telling us they are on the brink of divorce. Please pray with us that God will turn their hearts back to Him and each other!

Rhonda and I are about to present another (5th) “The HEART of Marriage” Intensive.

04/25/2023

Our next “The HEART of Marriage” Intensive is just 4 weeks away! It will be May 19-21 at the Hampton Inn in Troy. Please take a moment to read these brief reviews from participants of our last Intensive:
“If you have a hard time communicating and expressing thoughts and hurts with your spouse, the practical tools and applications during the Intensive gave us a great opportunity to share and repair some lingering issues.” - Larry
“This Intensive was a last-ditch effort for us, and we were so blessed to have gone through this together. Les, your care for those hurting in marriage is such an encouragement. We are now resolved to God and each other to make this work by applying the tools you gave us.” – Tracey
These comments reflect two of the common struggles represented by couples who attend the Intensives: some who are “done” and near divorce and others who are in “stuck” in bad patterns and can’t seem to find a way out. Our Intensives give help and hope to both!
If either of these describe your marriage, please seriously consider attending one of the next Intensives. You can find all the details about our Intensives at: https://www.theheartofmarriage.com/tell-me-more. OR if you know of a couple whose marriage is in need of intensive care, please do them a favor and refer them to our website: We are honored to help couples rediscover the promise of a meaningful, healthy marriage!
FYI: we plan to host an Intensive every other month throughout 2023 and our next one will be the weekend of July 21-23, 2023 at the Hilton Garden Inn in Troy.

Rhonda and I are presenting our very first The Care of Marriage Retreat at the Hilton Garden Inn in Troy Michigan!

Rhonda and I were honored to lead a marriage enrichment seminar yesterday at the St.John Lutheran Church in Rochester, Michigan, yesterday! It was a joy to share our "CARE of Marriage" material to 25 young and older couples who were very receptive and eager to strengthen their relationships. And it was an honor to partner with Pastor Schwichtenberg and their team who hosted the event with class and love.
And then next weekend we present our very first "The CARE of Marriage" Retreat at the Hilton Garden Inn in Troy. It's not too late to register!
