"My husband and I have attended both of the classes Gail and Gary Marten have taught "Joy in Parenting" and "Joyful Marriage". We were so blessed by these classes! It is nice to see that no one is alone in the struggles and challenges we have within each of our family units. We learned many necessary skills to become better parents as well as a better spouse to each other. I would highly recommend attending these classes to ANYONE in EVERY stage of marriage and the family, including those that are planning to get married and have a family one day. I plan to go through these courses again if they are offered at church. Thank you Gail and Gary!!!" - Lee & Toni Ramos
"I love how Gary and Gail teach their marriage course—with timeless spiritual wisdom, plenty of practical advice, and seasoned humor, love and grace. They share from Scripture, top-notch resources, and their own lifetime experience as a Christian couple. And it’s obvious they know what they’re talking about! As a recently remarried widow, I was able to apply everything I learned in their talks to my new marriage. I highly recommend their course to all couples." - Lisa

Ministry Mentorship and Personal Calling Development
If you know that you have been called to ministry, but ministry itself has become more of a burden than a blessing - we want to help! We know that God's yoke is easy and his burden is light (Matthew 11:30). Let us mentor you back to where you can find joy in ministry again!

We have known Gary and Gail Marten for well over 35 years and have benefited greatly from their spiritual guidance. They are compassionate and encouraging mentors, constantly seeking God’s will for how they can best use their individual gifts to serve Him and His people in new and relevant ways. We’ve witnessed and experienced how they take the seed of an idea, planted by God in their hearts, and seek His direction to bring the vision to life. It’s totally on brand for them to focus their latest work on resetting joy, because finding the joy of the Lord in relationships--with your spouse, your family, your church--is at the heart of everything they do. - D&L

My wife and I cannot express just how grateful we are to the both of you for the past 24 hours!! We truly are going home refreshed and excited for all that God has done in our hearts. Let me say that we’ve been to several ministry retreats over the years, but this one felt special. As we drove home today, we discussed all the things that stuck out to us and all the things God spoke to our hearts. Though it was only 24 hours, it felt like we were gone for 2-3 days!! Your approach, content, and heart in this retreat was incredibly anointed and God-ordained. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. Pastors D & L
My wife and I have been to many retreats in our decades of ministry, but this one was one of the best. Thank you! Pastors C & E
