Christian marriage retreat

A Christian marriage retreat is used my couples for a variety of reasons:

  • Finding it too slow attending one hour weekly appointments - getting discouraged.
  • Have been separated and want to invest a lot in making it work or finding out that it will not work.
  • Couples in distress may be in a similar predicament: "We don't know if this will work. We can't stand a slow set of weekly appointments. There is too much pain. Lets invest intensely in a retreat and make it or break it."
  • Some couples want to stay together but have not been able to break out of a marriage block. One individual may have shut down sexually and they want an expert at core issues to explore and bring healing to the core issues.
Frankly, I benefit from Christian marriage retreats too!

I benefit because:
  • In a retreat I almost always can go into a depth not possible in individual sessions.
  • The creative atmosphere and focus on one couple for several days usually means that new insights develop.
  • As well as insights, new methods or tools may be forged in working with one couple that can be used with other couples.
  • I am passionate about helping people and it is a great joy and encouragement to see a couple benefit from a Christian marriage retreat.
The results can be conveyed to some extent by the testimonies on HealMyLife.com.
