A Passage to Love
marriage retreat
"I picture this weekend like my heart being turned inside out to give light to places that have been in the dark a long, long time." --Participant
"The best marriage retreat I've been to! A 10!" --Participant
"Thanks for letting the Lord pour his life through you. It was better than we ever could have imagined!" --Participant
How do I learn to live under God's grace so I can extend grace to my spouse, children, and those around me?
In this unique marriage offering, retreat leaders Joel and Gerri Warne open the door to four key words from Jesus' last supper. These become rich themes that move us toward new places in our relationship with God and one another.
CHOSEN, BLESSED, BROKEN, GIVEN Mark 14:22
As spouses, how do we live as God's
Chosen ones ---
so we can extend an experience of being lovingly and continually chosen to each other
Blessed ones ---
helping us shift our lives and marriage out from under a focus on faults, failure, and a need to perform, to living joyfully under God's blessing and each other's blessing
Broken ones ---
receiving God into our brokenness, even the brokenness of marriage
Given ones ---
whose marriage God has chosen, blessed, and broken in preparation to be given in nourishing ways to each other and the world |

A Passage to Love defuses the pressure that couples on retreat often feel to quickly untangle complex marriage problems. It shifts focus to anchoring in us the bedrock truth of our belovedness in Christ. From this flows the ability to love ourselves, and from that place of grace to treasure and love our spouses, our children, and others.
This retreat or event can be offered at your location in formats ranging from a half-day seminar to an entire weekend.
