THRIVING or SURVIVING?
Join Serving Marriages as we partner with renowned speakers and best-selling authors Jeff and Shaunti Feldhahn who will
reveal and provide practical ways for us to improve our marriages. Hundreds of interviews, national scientific surveys, and
the infallible Word all line up and state the same truths! Having written the best-selling books, For Men Only, For Women
Only, and For Parents Only, Jeff and Shaunti will let us in on major revelations that men and women have not understood
about each other and how we can incorporate these revelations into our personal life, marriage, and family. Discover that
there is POWER and influence when you incorporate these revelations. Can we truly understand our spouse? Is it important
for us to be understood? The answer to both questions is "Yes." Our marriage, our children, their children, and their
children's children become our living legacy of the love and direction we provided.
Also joining us as our Special Guest is singer and songwriter Michael
O'Brien. While an incredible musician, it is his transparency and humility regarding his own marriage struggles that
couples enjoy about him.

RETREAT LOCATION - WINSHAPE RETREAT
Serving Marriages holds all of our retreats at
WinShape Retreat.
WinShape Retreat is a safe haven for
couples to rekindle passion, grow stronger, and be restored. It's a place to put the world on hold. A
place to be transformed.
WinShape Retreat's
setting is sequestered from the outside world for a season
of focus, refreshment, and restoration. The Retreat's setting allows for meaningful communication,
truth-based teaching, experiential learning (which for your marriage can be a time to be alone together
walking, hiking, talking). Sitting atop 40 acres of unspoiled mountain wilderness, serenely nestled
within a national wildlife refuge in beautiful Rome, Georgia,
WinShape is renown for its distinguished
grace-based hospitality. Take a brief video tour of WinShape by clicking

DR. EMERSON AND SARAH EGGERICHS
LEADERSHIP CERTIFICATION TRAINING
An unprecedented opportunity!
Enhance your leadership skills from Dr. Emerson Eggerichs, himself, founder of Love and Respect Ministries! To meet the growing demand for Love and Respect training, Dr. Eggerichs is offering a new teaching directed toward lay leaders, small group leaders, and mentors! This training will equip you with the tools necessary to establish a small group or a Love and Respect marriage ministry in your church.
Utilizing a multi-day format, leaders will learn the most common challenges to marital quality. You will identify triggers that get couples onto the “Crazy Cycle” and then strategies to help them get off.
In addition, each couple will develop a personal action plan, a marital map, which is a strengths-based approach for improving their marriage. Participants will also become familiar with ways to help couples across the life span and who come from a variety of backgrounds. Upon completion of this training you will become a Certified Love and Respect Small Group Trainer.
Dr. Eggerichs’ work is based on Biblical principles and incorporates the best observations from the field of marital studies. Since 2004, the Love and Respect book has become a national best seller and Dr. Eggerichs has become a sought after speaker and authority in marital interactions.
Here's what others are saying: Pastor/Counselor Mark Oelze: “In my twenty five years of counseling, Love and Respect is
by far the best marital material I have found. It provides my clients with a framework to act positively and proactively in their marriage. I heartily recommend Love and Respect resources to all counselors and church leaders!”
