Marriage Ministry

Strong marriages do not happen simply because two people love one another. They are built intentionally as husbands and wives learn to understand one another, confront the challenges that affect their relationship, and establish a foundation that is stronger than either person’s individual expectations.

BounceBack Ministries helps couples strengthen their marriages through biblical mentoring, practical teaching, workshops, and resources designed to move biblical principles from something we know into something we intentionally live.

Our Approach to Marriage

After marrying my college sweetheart, I was certain that life with “my babe” would be easy. I would keep doing what I was doing, she would continue doing what she did, and we would be happy. What neither of us fully expected was that life together—forever—is a much more difficult proposition.

We quickly discovered that we were different and that the standards we each brought into marriage had been shaped by our own families. When Peggy rejected my understanding of marriage, it could feel as though she was rejecting my family—and the same was true for me when I rejected hers.

What we needed was something neutral to both of us: a standard that did not belong to either family and was not dependent upon who could make the stronger argument. We found that neutrality in the Word of God.

From that day forward, God’s Word became the standard to which we could both appeal. Rather than asking whose way was right, we learned to ask what biblical truth required of each of us. That principle continues to shape the way BounceBack Ministries approaches marriage today.
