Hope for your marriage, rooted in the Gospel

“I don’t think there’s anything more important than our walk with Jesus, other than salvation, so having biblical counselors to come alongside your marriage, the closest representation of Christ’s relationship with His church, is of both earthly and eternal significance. Kimball And Elizabeth maintain Christ at the center of every session, every lesson, every prayer, and every discussion. Whether your marriage will be saved or not is ultimately in God’s hands, but there is no one better to walk the path with you than 2remain1 ministries. I don’t know who I would be or where my heart would sit without their counseling, but my walk with Jesus wouldn’t be as good as it is and my focus would 100% be in the wrong place. Don’t walk, run to them for help. This isn’t just counseling for them, it truly is a ministry and you will feel it right away.”

“In a time of extensive, discouraging marriage crisis, Kimball and Elizabeth were randomly recommended to us by an acquaintance. I am now very certain of two things — that there was nothing random about that recommendation and that I’m not sure our marriage would have survived without the wisdom, help, encouragement, accountability and resources we found with 2remain1. We’ve done extensive counseling before, but this was different — not a self-focused, improve-your-communication, know-your-needs approach, but instead, a Christ-centered, recognize your sin, run to the Cross-approach, seasoned with much practical, actionable advice from a couple I’m so happy to say have become trusted mentors in our lives. (The thoughtful, extensive resources they’ve compiled alone were worth so much beyond what we’ve invested.) Kimball and Elizabeth stood for us when we weren’t sure our relationship could withstand the tests it was under. If you’re even CONSIDERING pursuing counseling, let this be your not-random sign — schedule that initial consultation and pray about continuing further. Your marriage is worth fighting for, and fighting well requires training well. We highly recommend 2remain1!”

“Such an amazing ministry! The leadership to focus on the gospel instead of your own imperfections or your spouses is such a powerful and impactful way to lead to healing. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this ministry no matter where your relationship is. Whether your relationship seems irreparable or if you’re doing great and would like to refresh and renew the fire 2remain1 Ministries is relevant and purposeful. The Holy Spirit is truly leading this ministry!”

“Marriage has been a real challenge for my husband and me and throughout the 45 years we have sought counseling numerous times. While we learned many things in counseling that have been helpful, the sin in our hearts was not addressed and we repeatedly found ourselves in conflict again. Kimball and Elizabeth are teaching us to apply the gospel to ourselves, putting us in deep relationship with Jesus while eliminating pride, anger and arrogance. We consciously address who it is we worship – the Kingdom of Jesus or the Kingdom of me. At this point in my life, I was willing to just settle for peace in our marriage – I never expected to develop a deep, loving relationship with my husband as we are in the process of doing. As we work on “our homework” each day we grow in our marriage and in our love for the Lord. The Parkers have introduced us to a world of wonderful resources that are really enriching our lives. I could not have imagined this gift that God has given us. Who would have thought there was hope after 45 years! Thank you Father.”
