A Little Backstory
July 29, 2023
A little peek into the beginning
When we first got married, we made a commitment that we wouldn’t wait for our marriage to suffer before investing in it. So much so that we “studied” marriage even before getting married.
At the time, we thought we were being proactive. We read books, prayed hard, and went through a little pre-marital counseling too, where we were told to talk about budgets, expectations in sex and to formulate a parenting plan.
Fast forward a few years down the road, and we came to head with a very real situation:
Though very in love, our deepest hurts, unhealed wounds and unconscious patterns were being thrown around like a volleyball. We began to wonder why our marriage seemed to bring all of these things to the surface…and with ease. The tools we had previously sought out seemed (and were!) completely ineffective in the face of the real conflict we found ourselves in and the hurt that kept surfacing. So we kept digging. We dug deeper. We sought out the worlds best in relationship psychology and neuroscience and we stopped at nothing to learn, heal and grow.
Everything we learned, we tried and tested in our own marriage first. There is nothing we teach or lead our couples in that we haven’t done first, applied, and also seen incredible results in. All of this, we put into the Conscious Christian Marriage because we know that it WORKS and truly transforms day to day life and maximizes our impact. We have seen it first hand!
We created CCM because there was nothing else in the world like it; we know this because we looked for it. We looked for a resource that would practically and effectively equip couples in deep connection, healing, co-creativity, personal power, responsibility in their faith and the fulfillment of their calling from God. We didn’t find it, so we dove in head first and started building.
All this to say, we felt strongly called to create a resource based on the values of our Faith as well as scientifically supported psychology and neuroscience. God created them both to work hand in hand. "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength." (Mark 12:30)
We believe that God’s unique design of our psyche has equipped us to find healing in our conflict. Because of this, we believe a miracle has already been performed in every single person’s heart. This is the powerful convergence of God’s divinity and goodness and the intricate inner-workings of our heart, mind, soul and strength.
Our passion is to support and equip highly driven Christian couples who desire a true partnership, where they can be authentic, creative, supported and appreciated - all the time - thus maximizing their impact to fulfill the calling God has placed on their lives.
We help couples understand the real reasons they attracted each other – things like mutual healing, co-creativity and ever-expanding joy.
We teach couples how to end withholding for good, and melt away shame and fear they’ve carried since childhood.
We equip couples to increase the value they share in each other through appreciation and gratitude - no matter how GOOD they already experience each other!
We teach couples how to become curious instead of adrenaline-fueled when it comes to navigating learning opportunities (what you may still refer to as "conflict").
We believe that no matter how GOOD a marriage is, God is calling it upward and onward and if we aren't growing, we are stagnant and dying. So we are passionate in helping incredible, high integrity couples take their wonderful marriages to the next level - and levels above levels!
