Recent Notes from Couples

What a weekend!!!  A really great, it was hard, but great weekend!  It was so nice meeting the other couples, and I feel we all bonded really well too. We exchanged numbers to keep in touch.

I am SO beyond thankful for the genuine time, effort, sincerity, just everything the coaches put into all of us.  Even though there were three couples there, I personally felt like they still gave us all equally individual focus and attention as well as group attention and focus and it wasn’t rushed through.

We still have A LOT of work to do, which we knew and were prepared for from Friday night, but I feel we are a lot more prepared to get through the work we need to do.

November 2025

We feel really positive that we have the right set of tools to start bridging the gaps that have been present for years. Thank you again for allowing us to attend, it truly was a pleasure and gave us a really good look at what we can do to repair what we’ve spent our lives building.

November 2025

What a good but challenging weekend! I thought the intensive went very well and I was able to practice there and bring home some tools to continue growing in our marriage. I discovered that my husband is interested in putting forth the effort to protect our marriage, so that’s very encouraging to me. Also, it was a surprise and great encouragement to learn there are so many helpful resources available after we completed the intensive, such as the 15 session program online and access to coaches.

November 2025

We did not expect that the Marriage Intensive was going to impact us emotionally and so profoundly. We must have been the “cry babies” of the bunch. We felt safe sharing our brokenness to the group and how we each felt from our past trauma in our marriage. God really was there in our midst during that weekend. The coaches and other couples were so helpful in giving us the knowledge and tools to move forward to grow in our marriage. I am so grateful for the experience and hope one day our struggles as couple and the journey to continue to live in this marriage with God in it, will encourage and help others who have face hopelessness and desperation in their marriage.

November 2025

We really appreciate the support and teaching of our coaches. They were great! We are doing better and are very appreciative of the study!  We know we have a long way to go but it was a great start. Thank you!

November 2025

The intensive was intense and exhausting! But, I am praying there will be good fruit to come!

November 2025

The first night was rough but Saturday and Sunday went very well. I’m glad that we went. We’re going to sign up for the heavy lifting follow up and start on it tomorrow night. Tonight we attended one of the zooms and I’m looking forward to the podcasts, too.

November 2025

I was pleasantly surprised with the entire weekend and counselors. I was really hesitant to go, my defenses were lowered immediately by the counselors introduction of themselves. Still a lot of work ahead, but gave us a huge jump start.

November 2025

The weekend was great!

My wife and I are familiar with many topics that were discussed, however it was a good reminder and helpful for us both to put them into practice. Also, learning each other’s fears and reactions was very insightful.

November 2025

This weekend was beyond amazing, God knows the coaches were perfect for us. I thought the intensive might be done by coaches that would never understand what we go through with 8 children, but God sent us coaches who had one more than we do, so we could not say that. And the coaches were so sweet, we really bonded with them.

We wish we would have done this 20 years ago but we were not in crisis then. Why wait until you are in crisis? This could be called a marriage tune up or feel more love again seminar.

November 2025

This weekend was exactly what we needed to restart our marriage!  Our coaches were awesome!  Best counseling/training I’ve ever been to!  Top notch material, facility, atmosphere, food, snacks, merch., and care!  I would highly recommend it to other couples.  I look forward to continuing the heavy lifting over the next 15 weeks and beyond.

October 2025

We’re so thankful we were able to go to the Intensive. We gained such wonderful revelation and insight…as well as tools and strategies in going forward.

The Intensive was so well run; I will recommend it to everyone. Such a quality Christian ministry! I love how Scripture-based it was, how organized, how thorough, how well thought out.

October 2025

The weekend was well worthwhile! It opened our eyes and hearts to issues that definitely can be overcome to full fill that marriage promise of intimacy! We are definitely glad that we attended, our coaches were great and the other couple we attended with could not have been better. We are already implanting, lessons learned at the Marriage Hub, in our marriage. I would highly recommend the Marriage Hub, for those committed couples, looking to repair and prosper in their marriage.

October 2025

We are doing well. Actually had our first small disagreement last night and then we did a heart talk and avoided the silent treatment that usually ensues.  I do feel like we are connecting more and are in a good spot in our marriage.

September 2025

The weekend was amazing. I enjoyed the layout of the whole thing and the coaches were great. I really appreciate the binder full of material to enhance my relationship with God and my relationship my wife. Plus the continued support and resources will be used and we’re both thankful for that.

We’ve had a lot of discussions before the weekend, during the weekend and everyday. We have a long way to go to achieve full reconciliation but we’re fully committed to that process.  We are planning on seeing counselors/therapists to address issues we’ve brought into the marriage because we want to properly and fully address any hindrance.

Thank you for your help and support through this process!

September 2025

The weekend was really helpful for us. I feel so blessed to have been able to go to Sandy Cove. The coaches were amazing leaders. The other couples in our group were so nice and it helped to hear their stories.

I think returning home was a little harder than I anticipated because of all of the typical distractions of life. I am committed to moving forward in my marriage and to complete the 15 week follow-up program.

Thanks again for all of your help and support. I don’t think that I would be on this path without the support that we have received from The Marriage Hub.

September 2025

It was a necessary thing for us to do and it helped us take ownership for our behavior. It also helped remind us that we need to work more for each other. The coaches were great and helped us a lot.

September 2025

I just want you to know that my husband and I had a wonderful weekend and were actually really sad that it was over Sunday night. It was very emotional being away from our babies but we really did enjoy it! We learned so much not only about each other but about ourselves and are really excited to see how we will grow with the information we gained from this. I feel that we are spiritually, emotionally, and physically closer just from the couple of days we got together. Very grateful we got to experience such a beautiful but intense retreat!

September 2025

We thought it went very well and we both really appreciate you working with us to get us in on short notice. We still have a lot to work through but have some new found optimism now and a path to move forward. Thanks again for all your help.

September 2025

My wife and I learned a lot. We planned to start the heavy lifting on Sunday.

August 2025

It was WONDERFUL! We truly feel blessed and are excited to utilize our new tools to enhance our communication, conflict resolution, and our relationship. Just getting home from a jam packed Monday, wishing we were still at The Marriage Hub instead!

Thank you for checking in and for praying.

Overall thoughts about “intensive”: We thought “intensive” was exactly that—very intensive. It was a true blessing. If couples are open and honest with themselves, they can come out of this course with a newfound respect and love for each other.

I never cried so much in such a short period. The course and the stories of the other couples are just heartbreaking. The devil is tearing families apart, and it is time for people of faith to take a stand.

I thought the materials were spot on to promote healing. I thought our coaches were open and honest with everyone. I pray that The Marriage Hub continues the fight against divorce and the tricks of the devil forever.

July 2025

The intensive was so powerful, helpful and hope filled. We are so appreciative that we did it–and everything from beginning to end in the process.

Our coaches, were wonderful–each of them had unique approaches and assets of what they brought. I can’t begin to tell you how much we loved it and how helpful it was. I am still finding the words–but knowing we are not alone, the grace-filled, hopeful posture of everything and everyone, and ALL of the tools–we left full and grateful.

We look forward to starting the heavy lifting program.

July 2025

It was truly a wonderful, life-changing experience. To begin, we have two kids, and I have often prioritized them. We were reminded to prioritize us.

Furthermore, we want to be more intentional about flowering our relationship. We have already identified the days for our next weekly dates.
June 2025
The intensive was awesome from my perspective. Our coaches were absolutely amazing and gave me the clarity and perspective that I needed.
June 2025

It was so good! I can’t rave enough about our time… we really learned skills we will have life long that have really helped us… we connected on a deeper level and it got deep fast – especially because our leaders were so open with us about their lives which set the stage for all of us to be open. I loved how God also really connected us with the other couple – all the men had the same love language and all the women but we also just understood each other. The other woman and I would just give each other a look that said “I understand, I got you” so many times.

Since, coming back we have heard each other better, used the heart talk… feel more connected and safe. Of course we only have the power to change ourselves and our reactions.

So Incredibly thankful for your ministry, for our coaches, for the people who prayed, for those who helped us to afford the cost. All glory to God – he used all of you in powerful ways and I am SO, SO thankful! We really needed this!

June 2025

It was such a great experience!  I am thankful our coaches, they were so very helpful!  They were truly a blessing to me!

May 2025
The program created a roadmap for restoring our relationship. Conflict resolution and the use of “I” statements were especially helpful. Our coaches were great to work with.
May 2025

We had a powerful weekend at the marriage intensive, God is so good! Our coaches were simply amazing, guiding us through the material, while being real and sharing their story and testament and speaking God’s word into our marriage. We connected so nicely with the other couples as well, supporting one another and sharing stories that helped us gain perspective hearing similar issues from other couples. We also talked about how we are invested in working on ourselves to get to a place where we can be a support couple for future retreats.

May 2025

On our drive home we were just absorbing all that we had learned and commenting on the many different things that we had learned.
God showed up for us this weekend in so many ways. My husband humbled himself during the intensive and was able to fully participate and engage being the introvert that he is.
This entire process was all God’s plan and we see and feel his presence throughout. We are going to humble ourselves and realize that I’m sure our first disagreement is right around the corner but we both feel much more equipped to handle whatever comes our way.
We were able to share in devotion last night and this morning as well as pray for each other. The intensive was exactly what our relationship needed to get us back on the right track. We are looking forward to working through Heavy Lifting section and connecting with the Marriage Devotional as well. We are looking forward to seeing what God is about to show us in our relationship and deeply connecting with him and each other by practicing what we have learned.
Thank you all for making this possible for us and for everything that you do for couples in crisis.

April 2025

The intensive was really amazing, and I honestly wish it was a bit longer. Our coaches are some of my new favorite people. I felt safe, loved and supported through the whole weekend. I wish there was an extra day.

April 2025
It was a  wonderful experience for both of us. We are on the road to reconciliation and could not be more grateful!
April 2025

I think this was what we needed, especially to better understand and hear each other and communicate better.

March 2025

The weekend went great. Our coaches were excellent facilitators and we started looking at our heavy lifting last night.

Honestly, I’m so glad you guys exist and I know that this is what we needed.

March 2025

We are really connecting and communicating well again. We are more open with our feelings. We had an awesome group. Our coaches were awesome as well, very patient, informative and God loving.

January 2025

The weekend was amazing and our relationship/marriage is back on track! God opened our eyes and softened our hearts and helped get rid of some “stinkin thinkin”. We both are full of hope as we move forward. We have already started the 15-session follow up, which I see as a way to cement the new ways of communicating and conflict resolution. Thanks for the continued prayers; our renewed relationship is tender and vulnerable; we don’t want to fall into old habits.

As for the food and accommodations, the B&B was lovely and the food was great, especially all the DOVE chocolate pieces! 🙂

January 2025

The weekend was life changing. It was like a scab was torn off a very old wound. I am so glad we went because we will not stay in that place we were but it’s going to take A LOT of work to get to where the Lord wants us. I am ready and my husband says he is too.

December 2024

We are back and have so much to try to process and consider. I thought we had great sessions and loved our coaches. Their story is so powerful and they have an amazing testimony to share.  Their experience and journey gave us hope that we might still be able to come back from the brink even though the situation is a challenging road ahead but with prayer and God’s help, we may have the strength and patience to wait for our hearts to change.

I look forward to seeing a better year ahead.

My wife and I are both doing great and in a much better place. We both loved the intensive and the whole concept. My wife actual words were that it was phenomenal. Our coaches were both great and the intensive was a big blessing to our marriage.
