Marriage Retreat

Tomorrow Carrie and I are investing in our marriage in a big way. The two of us are going out of town for the day for a marriage retreat. It's not like other retreats where couples from all over join together to hear marriage counselors discuss details on how to improve your marriage. Nope, it's just the two of us!

We're going to proactively spend time discussing how we can enhance our relationship with one another and how we can be better parents to our children. As a pastor and pastor's wife, we not only have a large amount of responsibility on our shoulders, but we also deal with an incredible amount of spiritual warfare in our marriage and family. Why wait until crisis hits before we plan? Why not be proactive and have a game plan for when crisis hits? Why not have a strategy to accomplish, overcome and get through the everyday stuff that life throws at us as busy parents of three young children?

I'm looking forward to spending quality time with my wife, my life-partner. She's my best friend. She's an incredible inspiration to me in so many ways. It's a true joy to share my life with her!
