I was not optimistic coming to the getaway. I thought I would be getting divorce papers Monday. But this weekend has opened my eyes and now there’s nowhere else I’d rather be than with my husband.

This weekend made me realize just how much I am not doing what I should be. I have let the experiences of my past hold me hostage and from doing right in my marriage and as a parent. Today I am breaking Free! The chains of my past will no longer hold me prisoner. Satan was my Jailer, but God became my living Savior.

Extremely uplifting. I feel like I’m seeing my wife through new clear eyes. I’m VERY grateful for the guidance I’ve had this weekend.

It’s amazing how much 2 ½ days can impact our oneness and improve our relationship.

My wife and I came into this conference wounded by an affair. This getaway felt like a rebirth to our marriage. I would highly recommend this conference to anyone who faces the devil’s trials and traps.

It was great to have time together to talk and work on the projects. Writing the love letter was very impacting on me, to remember the things I fell in love with and still love and appreciate about my husband. My goal was to laugh and feel more connected after this weekend. I did both! Thank you.

You don’t need to be near the end of the road to realize you’ve gotten off track. Our getaway has been an opportunity to celebrate our differences and the value in correcting ourselves so that in love and respect we can refocus on being one, joined together and honoring this beautiful gift we call marriage centered in God’s design.
(wife, married 6 years)

Immeasurable=> emotionally and spiritually. Opened communication in areas we couldn’t on our own.
(husband, married 3 months)

Encouragement, insight, direction; time together to rediscover each other, rest & rewal. Basically, recalibration for marriage & for life…this was a critical juncture for us. Thank you!

It was an important step we needed to get beyond the “good” plateau and get closer to “great”.
