Feeling disconnected from your spouse or stuck in the daily grind of work, kids, and responsibilities?
In this episode, we talk about one simple rhythm that has helped our marriage stay intentional: taking a yearly marriage retreat.
You don’t need a fancy vacation, a huge budget, or even overnight childcare to make it happen. A marriage retreat can be as simple as a weekend away, a staycation, or intentionally setting aside time to reconnect and reflect on where your marriage is headed.
In this conversation, we share why we started doing annual marriage retreats, what actually makes them meaningful, and how you can plan one that strengthens your relationship.
We also talk about:
• Why thriving marriages don’t happen by accident
• How to plan a marriage retreat with any budget
• The most important conversations to have during your retreat
• How to align your marriage, faith, and family vision for the future
• Practical ways to reconnect when life feels busy or overwhelming
Whether you’ve been married one year or ten, intentional time together can make a huge difference in building a strong, Christ-centered marriage.
