What Our Clients Say

Hear from couples who transformed their marriages with us.

Andrew & Rickisha James

“In our hearts and minds, our marriage was over. The Dynamic Marriage program was presented as an option that turned out to be quite different from traditional marital counseling. The group setting was out of the box, challenging at times yet very comfortable. We learned more about ourselves, and each other and realized how to fulfill our God-given roles. The Scaife's were intentional about setting a safe atmosphere, leading by example, and participating so we never felt alone.  Thank you! We are still going strong”. 

David and Jenene Calloway

“We were blessed many years ago by this ministry. The timing of when this was offered at our Church couldn’t have been better with us being 3 years into our marriage and not a lot of examples of what a healthy marriage looks like biblically. The support and space to grow spiritually and emotionally created a foundation that we can proudly say was foundational to us celebrating 18 years of marriage and something our kids can use as they start their relationships”.
