DEEPER

Our marriage camp in May honestly gave us so much more than just a weekend away together. ❤️ It gave us an opportunity to stop, talk, listen to each other and look at our marriage in a different way.

One of the practical things we took away was learning to share the responsibilities at home more intentionally. We actually sat down and divided up some of the school drop-offs, and now my Monday mornings are open. It sounds like such a small thing, but it has made a real difference in our everyday life.

But more than anything, we’ve learned to communicate better. We’ve learned not to just jump into big decisions like we perhaps did in the past. We talk about things, we pray about them, we wait patiently for the Lord’s answer and we consider what is best for our family before making a decision. We’ve learned to keep the communication line open and to talk about everything—even the difficult things.

Our marriage is certainly not perfect. 😂 He still manages to irritate me around about the 16th of every month! 🤣 But through everything, I have such a deeper appreciation for my husband. I see his hard work, the way he gets up every day and gives his all for me and our two girls, and I am so grateful for him.

The camp reminded us that marriage isn't about having everything figured out. It's about choosing each other, communicating, praying together and allowing God to lead us through every season.

We walked away from that camp feeling more connected, more intentional and more grateful for the marriage God has given us. ❤️

What did the marriage camp mean to us? Restoration that we did not even know we needed, opened doors to honest conversations and a reminder that love and Jesus can get you through anything life throws at your marriage! #Builtonarock

Attending Be Church’s 2026 Marriage Camp was such a blessing for us as a newlywed couple. We left feeling encouraged and equipped with wisdom and practical tools that we know will only strengthen our marriage and help us grow closer to God and each other.

Janine and Hendre have such a genuine heart to see marriages built on God’s wisdom and blessing. They have a way of making everything feel so down-to-earth, relatable and real. And on top of it all, we had so much fun!

We’re so glad we went and would highly recommend it to any newlywed couple, or honestly, any married couple. It’s so worth investing in your marriage!
