Marriage takes work. 

The white wedding dress and black tuxedos. A cute flower girl and handsome ring bearer. Commitment. Gifts and words of encouragement. Big dreams together. Two simple words started it all. I do. 

These images, thoughts, and emotions often times fade after the honeymoon is over.

The relationship can quickly change to: Fights in the kitchen. I'm tired of living like this. I just want to be happy. I wish I was with someone else. We are roommates more than husband and wife. Shattered dreams. I don't want to be married anymore.

We know this because we have experienced it ourselves and have heard stories of thousands of other couples who have experienced the same. Because of our experience, we are committed to helping marriages before it's too late and you decide to give up. 

Our desire is to see marriages thrive the way that God intended for them to thrive. We have developed a 7-week Marriage Mentoring program where we will partner with you to help you in your marriage. Our desire is to mentor you towards the marriage you have always dreamed about having.

What is the investment?

• $599

Who is this for?

• Are you wondering if things will ever get better?

• Do you find yourself saying, "we are growing apart"?

• Are you questioning if you would be better off with someone else?

• Do you continue to fall back into patterns that are destructive within your marriage?

• Are you looking to improve your marriage?

How do we do this?

We will meet with you for 7 consecutive weeks as we go through the AH Marriage Mentoring program. We break down each week into 5 days of reading and journaling. Each week will consist of a midweek booster which will be an activity to do together…think of it like a midweek date night! Each day consists of scripture reading, a short narrative, and questions to promote conversation and growth within your marriage.

We intentionally designed the program to consist of 5 days during each week to allow time within a 7-day week to complete each day. This will require approximately 20-30 minutes per day without any distractions, 5 days out of the week, for 6 weeks. To experience the program the way that it was designed, this format is important to follow.

You will receive 1 ½ hours per week of two-on-two, face-to-face mentoring. This will be done in-person if you are located in the Kansas City area or via FaceTime or Skype. During this 90-minute session, we will answer questions that surfaced during your daily interaction as well as share our own life experiences to encourage you on your own journey. 

You will receive the following:

• 7-weeks (90 minutes each week) of two-on-two, face-to-face (in-person or via Facetime/Skype) mentoring from Bryan and Shayla

• (2) Anguished Hearts Marriage Mentoring Experience Workbooks

• (2) Anguished Hearts Journals to navigate through the workbook

• Daily prayer from Bryan and Shayla

• Learn how to read the Bible together

• Learn how to pray for each other and together

• Learn valuable tools and resources to have the marriage that God intended for you to have

• Learn how to carry on the momentum beyond the 7-week experience

The AH Marriage Mentoring Experience will help you understand how God created husband and wife different but uniquely compatible to do life together as followers of Jesus. This safe environment will create a place for you to share barriers that are keeping you from having a healthy marriage. We will use our knowledge and expertise to help create awareness in your relationship to recognize triggers that are preventing your relationship from being what you desire it to be. We have created a format that will increase your communication, allow for transparent conversations, and ultimately the thriving marriage that God wants for you. 

Here is what James said after going through the BE[different] experience:

Bryan and Shayla’s transparency and story opened us up to discuss obstacles we have faced in our own marriage. Their story also gives us hope during troubled times and shows that God does have a good plan for all marriages. The material allowed us to discuss issues that we have and it was properly laid out into multiple weeks. We didn't feel overwhelmed when we were talking about our issues since there were planned questions to ask each other and enough time to discuss them.
