Exploring More

Michael Thompson, SJ Jennings, and Jeff and Dana Andrechyn discuss the journey of building The Rendezvous Project. A small intimate voyage, going after redemptive marriage, relatability are some of the benefits that are a part of the discussion. The interactivity of the program is a strength which allows for God to enter the conversation. For those who are married, consider this question, "Do you realize the glory of you two together in this world?"

In this episode, Michael & Robin and SJ & Sherry explore more about their journey in the creation of The Rendezvous Project. The Rendezvous weekend is intentionally held in a smaller more intimate space rather than a big ballroom marriage conference. The goal of marriage is to be known and to know another person intimately; therefore there needs to be an opportunity to prepare and share your story in an unhurried setting. The goal is not rush through to complete the sessions, but to explore more together using the tools as prompts.

Michael & Robin and SJ & Sherry discuss the state of marriages in light of the soon to be released Rendezvous Project. Has the close proximity of this extended season of quarantine created a perfect storm for your marriage? All marriages go through challenges and crisis, but this past year has magnified the typical relationship stressor due to the pandemic, financial stress, and political stress. Counseling appointments for couples has increased by 30% this las year. Divorce filings have increased as much as 70% in certain areas.

On the other hand, couples who have persevered have experienced strengthening in their marriage. One of the key factors is to examine the motivations of each person in the marriage.
