Why This Exists

Strong marriages are built — on purpose

Loving & Growing Together is a four-part journey of half-day conferences for married and engaged couples: one Saturday morning at a time, building the skills that make a marriage strong, warm, and joyful for a lifetime.

Anchored

Scripture first

Every session is grounded in God’s design for covenant love — marriage as He imagined it, from Genesis to the Song of Songs.

Proven

Research-backed skills

Practical tools drawn from the most respected marriage research of our generation — the work of Drs. John Gottman and Sue Johnson — presented as tools consistent with biblical principles.

Safe

Private by design

Every exercise happens quietly between you and your spouse at your own table. No one is ever asked to share personal matters with the room.

The Journey

Four mornings. One architecture.

Each conference stands on its own — come to one, or walk the whole road. Together they build one house.

1

Understanding What Really Matters

The Foundation

Friendship, communication, healthy conflict, and fun ways to connect — the four foundational skills of a house built on the rock.

Registration open · October 24, 2026
2

Growing Deeper

The Journey into Intimacy

Being fully known, healing old hurts, meeting God together, and delighting in each other — the walk back toward “naked and unashamed.”

3

Weathering the Storms

Standing Strong Together

Stress, money, family, and the trials nobody chooses — facing every storm as one team, one purse, one front, one hope.

Living the Legacy

A Love That Outlives You

Your story, your dreams, your mission — and finishing strong, so your marriage becomes a story told to generations you will never meet.

A house on the rock · a love that knows and heals · an anchor in the storm · a light on the hill

What to Expect

A morning that feels like a gift, not a class

Just the two of you

Short, warm teaching from the front — then every exercise happens privately at your own table. You will never be put on the spot.

Every stage welcome

Newlyweds to golden anniversaries, and engaged couples preparing well. The skills meet you wherever your marriage is.

Warmth, coffee & laughter

Good coffee, good snacks, a couples quiz with a prize — this is a morning of encouragement, not a lecture on failure.

Leave with a plan

You’ll walk out with a workbook full of tools, one commitment in writing, and a date already on your calendar.

Questions

Frequently asked

Who is this conference for?

Every married couple — whether you’ve been married four months or forty years — and engaged couples who want to start strong. Strong marriages come to grow stronger; struggling marriages come to find a way forward. Both belong here.

Will we have to share personal things in front of others?

No — never. Every exercise is done privately between you and your spouse at your own table, with soft music covering the room. No one is asked to share anything publicly.

What does registration include?

Your $50 (early bird, until October 4) or $75 per-couple registration covers workbooks and materials for both of you, plus coffee, refreshments, and snacks through the morning.

Do we need to attend all four conferences?

No — each conference is complete on its own, and every one opens with a short recap. That said, the four are designed as one journey: the foundation, the depths, the storms, and the legacy. Couples who walk the whole road get the whole house.

Is this only for couples from Calvary Assembly?

Not at all — every couple is warmly welcome, whatever church you call home (or if you don’t have one yet). Bring a couple you love.

What if the cost is a barrier for us?

Please don’t let it be — reach out to us quietly at info@lovingandgrowingtogether.com and we’ll make sure you can be there.
