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.

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! 🙂

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.

We had a really good time at The Marriage Hub weekend. Our coaches were great! My wife even said when we left that she could see us being a support couple at some time down the road. That was huge! We have been given hope and look forward to getting into the heavy lifting. Thanks again for all you did to make this happen for us.

Overall despite our reason for being there I really enjoyed our time at The Marriage Hub and would highly recommend it to any other couples needed help.
October 2024
We are keen to begin the heavy lifting as a follow up to keep the momentum from this weekend as well as implement some of the techniques and strategies we learned. Overall I’d say the weekend delivered exactly what I hoped for!
October 2024
I came out of the weekend feeling more hopeful, feeling as if the needle had moved a little bit in the direction of reconciliation. I also felt convicted that we hadn’t invested in our marriage like this during the almost 11 years we have been married.

It was a lot, and good stuff for sure, I know we really got a lot out of it! Our coaches were so kind and we loved working with them!

Our coaches were absolutely amazing!! They are physical proof that God is good and God wants us to succeed and that with God anything is possible. They were very easy to talk to and trust.

The intensive was really great and very helpful. Our coaches were so great, gracious, patient and kind. We reached out to our pastor and told him we highly recommend The Marriage Hub for any other couples in the church going through it.

At the end of the weekend, I’m glad we were there. We learned more about each other, we learned to improve our communication, and learned skills to quickly dissolve conflict, among many other things. The coaches were exceptional coaches.

Our group coaches and support couple were great. We are eager to implement the tools we learned. We have a lot of work ahead of us and I’m hoping that the 15 week sessions will keep the positive momentum going.

The weekend was really good. Our coaches were wonderful and will be part of our lives moving forward.
We are intent on taking the tools we learned and implementing them in our relationship. We will be disciplined to go through the videos and other follow up materials.

August 2024
Thank you for organizing the most excellent weekend.
We came away feeling excited about what we learned, the new tools we have been taught and the wonderful friendship that was formed with our gifted coaches.
We strive to deepen our marriage and constantly grow in our walk of faith. The blessing of this weekend was exactly what we needed to assure ourselves that we were seeking the correct path and the confidence to trust God and each other.
So many heart felt thanks to you, our wonderful coaches, our truly amazing church family and of course our Father in heaven.
I am filled to the brim with hope and joy.
August 2024
We cannot thank the team enough for all that they have poured into each of us and our marriage. We are hopeful we headed in the right direction and grateful for the support and tools provided to help us get there. ♥️
July 2024
I must say this past weekends retreat was the best investment we could have made in our marriage. At first I was thinking that my spouse was not fully committed and was still deflecting. However, upon a complete breakdown about mid-Saturday and some interaction with the coach and another couple, a breakthrough happened. From that moment on, they were all in. They saw the heartache I was experiencing and from there I could not have asked for more rawness and compassion on their part. They agreed to invest in the full fifteen weeks, and has even reach out to one of the spouses at the retreat as an accountability partner.
Speaking of other couples, we all bonded so well this weekend. I honestly feel God must have all brought us together because each of us could see bits and pieces in each other. We have all exchanged numbers and have pledged to connect frequently to check in and see how well we are doing and keep us all accountable to our devotion to our marriages.
Thank you again! I showed up hopeless, but left there so hopeful! God is Good! ♥️
July 2024
The coaches were fantastic! Their experience with the material was evident and they offered a great deal of knowledge, understanding, and sensitivity. I appreciated their willingness to share, help, and listen to the needs of all the couples in attendance.
July 2024
We are trying to implement the things we learned at the intensive. Although, not perfect, but we are trying. We are very thankful that we went to this intensive. It’s better than all of the years of marriage counseling that we’ve had. Please continue to pray that the Lord continues to help us get rid of bitterness toward each other, get rid of “stinkin thinkin”, and see the best in each other.
We have already recommended this intensive to family members and friends!
June 2024
We’re doing good. Our coaches were so great, we really appreciated how they walked us through the Intensive but also gave us time to work on our specific issues. We could not have asked for better coaches.
May 2024
I would like to say that going into the weekend I was truly thinking that our marriage was over. We were going through the motions of giving one last ditch effort, but God works in mysterious ways and I am surprisingly writing to say that after the ultimate life-shattering trust buster of cheating, we were able to work through our challenges and have really difficult conversations this weekend. Our coaches created such a safe space for us to learn and grow that we both have fully committed to moving forward together. This is not to say that everything is perfect; “trust is lost in buckets and earned drip by drip.” We know it’s going to be a journey but we have done our intro of heavy lifting last night and have scheduled a date for this week. I have recommitted to finding myself in the morning, spending time with God, and doing a daily devotion. I pray that we continue to commit to one another each day through God’s word and fight against satan and temptation.
May 2024
We are doing great. Thanks again for the knowledge and fellowship. We canceled divorce proceedings today with our lawyers. Your intensive was the deal maker.
May 2024
We wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for the incredible experience we had at The Marriage Hub Intensive Retreat this past weekend. Our coaches were truly a blessing, and we are so thankful for their leadership and guidance.
The lessons, materials, and tools you provided us with have been invaluable. We feel confident and empowered to apply them as we continue to grow closer to God and nurture our marriage. Your dedication and passion for helping couples build amazing and spiritual marriages have left a lasting impact on us.
Thank you once again for your dedication and support. We feel truly blessed to have had the opportunity to learn.

What a life changing weekend my husband and I shared!! Meeting other couples and sharing our lives/struggles in a safe and non-judgmental zone was empowering. We are all human and in need of God, His Word, and the wisdom of other believers who understand and who’ve walked in our shoes. My favorite part of the Intensive was probably the practical application. We identified our fears along with our reactions due to those fears. Sharing my heart with my spouse in such a way helped us to draw us closer to one another.
I believe any marriage can get so caught up with life. Spouses can forget and begin to take one another for granted. This weekend gave us an opportunity to see our spouses through a clearer lens. We are growing that we may develop more love and compassion for the other. I’m looking forward to doing our “heavy lifting” follow-up course online as we continue to work together and draw closer to one another. May God richly bless you for pouring into marriages and speaking life into them for the benefit of HIS Kingdom.

We are doing well, thank you!! In fact, we’re really enjoying the time we’re sharing together as we learn new things about the other. We even started our first devotional together last night. It’s surreal. While we know all things are possible with God, 9 years of difficulty seemed grim for us. So, to see great progress between us over the last few weeks has been exciting and profound. We look forward to sharing more with you.
April 2024
We are making great progress through the Heavy Lifting. Things are awesome between us. We are growing and strengthening our relationship everyday thanks to the Intensive.

Our coaches were wonderful leaders. We loved their very real story and their willingness to be so open. I appreciated their humor and care and empathy shown throughout the weekend. They were absolutely wonderful and caring and fantastic teachers. Thank you so much to them for everything! God bless them and their marriage.

The weekend and the program were amazing! Our coaches did a terrific job, with excellent backup support from the support couple! The insights they provided, as well as their demeanor, were exceptional. The experience with the other two couples was also excellent and very productive – it was definitely helpful having others there to share in their experiences and perspectives on much of the subject matter.
We had a great 5 hour ride to Sandy Cove discussing our marriage in anticipation of the weekend as we were both looking forward to the benefit we hoped it would provide, and we immediately started to reap those benefits after just the first night. Even though our heads were spinning after Saturday’s packed program, we actually would have preferred to have reconvened for a couple of hours after dinner to keep the momentum going. Sunday was another completely packed and productive day. Afterwards, we both had “enjoyable” tension headaches for our drive home, but despite this, we continued with some additional (lighter) marital discussions. In hindsight, it is clear why this is called an “intensive” weekend – it certainly was.
The structure of the program itself was also excellent, as were the printed materials. It gives us a solid guide and steps to follow as we continue working to strengthen our marriage. The program has opened our eyes to the many issues that we have faced and dealt with over the years, and has equipped us with the tools to address them moving forward. It also opened productive communication channels between us. I am so confident that we are now on the right trajectory, and I look forward to rebuilding our marriage as God intended. She is my gift from God that I need to cherish. Also, we will definitely be taking advantage of the 15 session follow-up. We also very much appreciated that this course is God centric, which is, what brought us to it in the first place.
January 2024
We sought out a biblically based program since the Lord is so important to us and The Marriage Hub successfully delivered! I didn’t know what to expect from an intensive weekend but we walked into the weekend enthusiastically in hopes of getting our marriage back on track. I will say it not only met my expectations, but it exceeded them. I appreciated the structure of the program, the material, the leaders, and participants. We walked away armed with information. We have the 15 week follow up course to help us navigate our marriage. We have a lot of work ahead of us, but we feel prepared and blessed to have the Marriage Hub’s resources including online therapist should we need them.
January 2024
Wow. The coaches were amazing. So down to earth, so relatable, so understanding and patience in listening to our struggles. They were very easy to understand and I felt that they had a genuine interest in our well-being and cared.
December 2023
The intensive was deep and was emotional, revealing, healing… all at the same time. I loved the intimate format in which it was held and we felt comfortable from the beginning. It was the perfect amount of time. I loved the material and the exercises we did.
December 2023
I felt relieved that the coaches saw and understood what I could not verbally express to my husband. And yet, they were able to decipher it and explain it to my husband in a way that I couldn’t.
November 2023
I came not knowing what to expect and with a glimmer of hope.
By the end of the 1st night, there were some deep revelations.
By the second 2nd day, I thought my husband was going to want to pack his bags, leave early and give up, but…
By the 3rd day, I saw Gods’ light shine upon us with solid hope. This breakthrough could not have happened without the coaches’ patience and encouragement and reassurance that God has a true plan for us. In addition with all the prayers that were being made for us prior to our arrival.
I now truly believe that we are on a path of reconciliation to get us back to being connected. I know it will be hard, but with patience, prayer and consistent follow through we shall overcome with all the new understandings and tools that were provided to us this past weekend. God is Good.
November 2023
We learned a lot, and at the same time God broke the cement wall my wife built over the years. We came in with total strangers, but felt sad leaving as if we were saying goodbye to very close friends.
I appreciate everything, and will highly recommend The Marriage Hub to anyone I encounter with marital problems.
November 2023
The weekend was great I learned many things I need to change for myself and our marriage. Our coaches were great and I really appreciated them being transparent the whole weekend.
November 2023
The weekend was an absolute blessing! We loved our coaches. They were everything we needed and more. It felt genuine and judgement free. I didn’t know how I would feel in a setting with other couples, but it was actually refreshing to hear other stories and be able to learn from them. I thank the Lord for allowing me and my husband that opportunity. We have left more hopeful and with the proper tools for moving further in what God has designed for our marriage and family.
November 2023
We are beyond thankful for the opportunity. The experience was positive and challenging in a good way. We had some breakthroughs but mostly felt like it gave us a very good foundation for repairing things. We would not have been able to do this without the scholarship and we hope one day to contribute towards that fund for other couples.
We really enjoyed the setting. The coaches were excellent. They’re warm and genuine and really helped guide feedback and conversation.
Thank you for being a part of making this happen for us
