Erin is the youngest daughter to our marriage mentors. Her marriage to Kyle is a beautiful testament to what can happen when God changes the trajectory in a family’s legacy. This is their story…

“To get to grow old together, that Christ remain at the center of our marriage, and that we set a good example to our children.”
When did your spouse make you feel the most loved this past year?
Erin- “When he sleep trained the twins and I got to sleep through the night” Kyle- “When she gave me extra time to study for seminary”

Are there couples you look up to that have influenced your marriage for the better? What makes their marriage so great?
“One of our pastors in our church. They have been married 40+ yrs and you can tell they still love each other so much. Also Erin’s parents (pictured above with our daughter), they have encouraged us a lot.”

“Knowing that we have been forgiven.”
What is your favorite CHANGE in your spouse after all these years?

In your opinion, how do you feel marriage (in society) today differs from when you were first married?
“Marriage isn’t the “next step.” People just move in together now.”
Do you have any boundaries for your marriage to keep it safe and sacred that you could share?
“Don’t be critical of spouse to other people.”
Thank you guys for your honesty and commitment to Jesus and to each other! You two are definitely catalysts meant to do great things!
