Marriage in Crisis - Resources to Help
A Word from Glen and Shawn: Encouragement in a Marriage Crisis
If you are on this page, likely you or someone you care about is at a point of crisis in marriage. First of all, thanks for coming to this page for help. We firmly believe God has both help and hope for you and your marriage. But the first place to look for God's help is not in a direction toward your spouse, but rather in an upward direction toward Him! Yes, God desires to bring help for you and your spouse, but first He wants to connect with you personally.
There are three blog posts shared below. We are confident the Lord can use one or more or them to bring His help and His hope to you this very day!
Post 1: Losing Hope for Your Marriage
Post 2: How Do We Get from "I Do" to "I'm Done"?
Post 3: The God of Breakthroughs
Bible Verses of Hope for You:
In addition, we believe God gives us hope in times of crisis through His Word, the Bible. Please check out this link to several Bible passages that we sincerely pray will give you encouragement from God's Word not to give up on your marriage!

Other Suggested Resources to Help:
Your Local Church: If you attend, or are formally part of a local church, we strongly encourage you to reach out to your church leadership. We know this may not be an easy call to make, but God has designed the church to be a hospital for the hurting, so please make that call today.
Other Churches in the Area: If you are not part of a local church, ask a friend or neighbor that attends church, who you might contact at their church. Again, this is not easy, but let's believe God has help for you in this way!
Peace with God Chat Line: Free and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. To help and encourage anyone in life’s struggles. They offer resources and help from Focus on the Family. They also offer prayer support
