our vision
Our firm belief is that incorporating the four-person coaching dynamic, simultaneously acknowledging both the male and female perspective, is most beneficial to thoroughly dissecting the issues of marriage. Additionally, Tim coaches men one-on-one, helping them to understand their identity in Christ and motivating them to be the best versions of themselves, physically, mentally, emotionally, and, most of all, spiritually. Marriage coaching is our passion. We have yet to hear a marriage horror story that we do not believe Jesus is entirely capable of redeeming. In the darkest times of our marriage, the verse that has continued to bring hope and assurance is Matthew 19:26. “But Jesus looked at them and said to them, ‘With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible’.”
What we do
We use our 20 years of marriage experience together as we are transparent with our testimony so we can give you hope through Jesus Christ and how he has restored and redeemed our marriage and family. We do not think it fair to ask you to be fully transparent while you learn nothing about us.
We also use our marriage ministry leadership at Calvary North Phoenix experience which helps facilitate Christ-centered curriculum for our couples and promotes fellowship.
Finally, our educational background in behavioral health and sociology gives us insight on how individuals think and behave along with how society influences individuals and how individuals influence society. This allows us to fully understand marriage, worldview, behavior, family dynamics and the impact marriage and society have on each other.
We build a bond with our climbers as they are trying to reach the hilltop. A fruitful and success marriage is a climb no doubt. However, the reward of reaching the summit is sweet and brings a lifetime of reward and fulfillment.
Our Story
Tim and I met in high school. He likes to jokingly point out that he was placed firmly in the friend zone. We were indeed best friends before we were anything else. After years of friendship, we got married when I was 21 and he was 19. We had a marriage that looked good on the surface, but we didn’t realize it was eroding at the foundation because it was not established on the Rock. After ten years of marriage, we found ourselves in the midst of a divorce…but God. Our marriage has endured some major blows including, but definitely not limited to bankruptcy, cancer, addiction, and adultery. It has also endured some of the less obvious threats like pride, anger, and emotional and physical neglect. After trying things our way, we began to approach our marriage God’s way and we are privileged to say we now have 20 years of marriage under our belts. The miraculous redemption of our marriage has contributed to a testimony that we know is not to be hidden.
Our marital success is attributed wholeheartedly to the grace and wisdom of Jesus Christ and the desire of our hearts is to bring glory to His name by sharing all He has done for us through helping couples who are following a path on which we once found ourselves. Since our reconciliation, we have witnessed God’s mighty hand at work, not only in our lives, but in the lives of those around us. Both Tim and I have since earned our degrees through Grand Canyon University, his in Sociology and mine in Behavioral Health Science with an emphasis in Family Dynamics. We have had the honor of coaching countless marriages, using the word of God, the Holy Spirit and our own experiences to guide couples to a marriage that doesn’t just survive, but thrives.
