What People Are Saying
Our marriage was seriously on shaky ground and that retreat was either going to make or break it. Praise the Lord, it caused both of us to refocus on our relationship with the Lord and with each other. Things are not completely as they should be, but they are so much better than they were. It is a healing in progress!
Joy
The most important thing I learned is that our marriage is not just about us, but our devotion and respect towards God. My wife is a gift from God! WOW!
Nick
I learned that God is truly a very definite in any marriage, and dying to self daily is a must. Drawing close to God together draws us together in every aspect of our marriage.
Katie
Longview was an excellent location for small groups with all the private areas around the farm for the husbands and wives to escape to complete the exercises.
Deborah
We came to the weekend very beat up emotionally and spiritually–isolated from each other. God used this retreat to radically turn our hearts back to each other and towards Jesus. I’ve never found a resource for marriage so well suited for every stage of marriage. Amazing!
Rebecca
No matter what happens in the future, the things I have learned at Longview have made me a better Christian, husband, father, and man.
Robert
Joe and Jane are the best, most gracious, transparent hosts for an event. You are the most hospitable & loving folks I’ve met in a long time. And I’m really thankful that the Lord called you to this ministry. My wife & I really needed this marriage tune-up.
David
Life-changing! We will never go back to the life of turmoil and unrest that we had before. I am excited about the next chapter in our lives and marriage, as we walk by faith in Jesus daily seeking to serve God by showing love and respect to each other so that when we stand before our Lord in eternity, we will hear “Well done thy good and faithful servant.”
Jason
Thank you for the outstanding way both of you led us and touched our hearts. We loved your focus on Jesus, your real love for each one of us, and your strong desire to help people have strong marriages and families for God’s Kingdom.
