Marriage Retreats are Worth the Investment
Follow
We had a great time over the weekend at the First Baptist Church of Glenarden’s 2010 Couples Retreat – “Love Beyond Limits: Igniting the Intimacy.
From the music of Dove Award-winning artists Angelo & Veronica, to the preaching of Rev. Jeffrey Johnson, Sr., to the teaching of sex therapists Dr. Clifford and Joyce Penner, it was a wonderful experience.
In our book, “50 Ways to Put Christ in Your Marriage: And Live Happily Every Day,” we note the importance of investing in your relationship. We try to attend at least one marriage conference/retreat per year. And we’ve never regretted going whenever we’ve made it to one.
The FBCG event featured a concert by Angelo & Veronica, who shared some of their love songs. Their new album, “Still in Love,” is a testament that Christians can be as passionate about the mates as anyone else! And if you’re shy talking about love, sex and marriage, don’t listen to Rev. Johnson, or buy his books on the subject. That brother is in-your-face when discussing expressions of love, benefits of sex and realities of marriage. If we’re ever in Indianapolis on a Sunday, we KNOW which church we’ll attend!
Love, peace, joy and blessings.
