no matter if you have been married for 50 years or 5 months.

them for years
You'll Experience
- True Connection
- Peace and Understanding
- Reignited Passion
- Growth in the Gospel
"I knew that I was very conflict resistant and passive, but I didn't understand before the [Charlotte] event that it was part of my pre-wire at birth.
I have felt shame and guilt for just not being A MAN.
The "aha!" moment for me was that I can allow the Holy Spirit to transform that part of me not from a place of shame but from a place of unique design. I have struggled with no success to change. I have a sense of confidence now that change is possible...no probable...no...inevitable!"
—Brian, Type 9
