Be the Couple that “Made It”

Smile at each other when you’re 80 and be proud to…

Everything you need to communicate like best friends,
flirt like honeymooners, and get through hard times together.

Everything you need to communicate like best friends,
flirt like honeymooners, and
get through hard times together.

It’s safe to say no one wants to beg for love 

As Phyllis from The Office says, “I think we all deserve to be with someone who wants to be with us."

But have you ever felt like you’re talking to a dang brick wall when trying to communicate with your partner?

No one wants to beg their spouse for attention. For communication. For sex. For anything. 

And there’s certainly no one thinking, “I love it when my significant other ignores my feelings. It makes me feel validated."



We’re gonna be blunt…

It sucks when the good morning messages stop coming. When you stop stealing kisses while you’re in public. When you don’t look forward to your spouse coming home. When they’re always glued to their phone. 

You’re frustrated because you’re the only one trying to make the relationship work. And sometimes you look at your significant other and think...

“Is this seriously as good as it gets?”

*takes partner by the shoulders and profusely shakes them*


You’re wildly unfulfilled and constantly wanting more out of your relationship.

Your faith has been on the back burner and you desire a deeper spiritual connection with your spouse.

You’re discouraged because it feels like living with a roommate, not your lover.  

You might even be unhappy about the frequency of sex. You're so used to rejection, you don't even bring it up anymore. 

You’re sick of seeing dreamy TikTok couples because you’ve tried everything and nothing gets you closer to being happy. You’re starting to wonder if marriage was the right move.

If you're like the old Jenna & David, you feel defeated. You're disagreeing more, spending less time together, and feeling stuck.

If your marriage continues down this path, it won’t last. 

And that’s exactly what the enemy wants. 

But you already know that. 

According to Forbes, 43% of first-time marriages end in divorce. However, couples who implement therapeutic tools in their marriage see a 70% success rate

Ummm excuse me…70%?! Put me in, coach!!!

But how do you become a couple who can look back, smile at their life and say, “Baby, we made it” when you’ve tried everything and nothing works?

Or worse, when you’ve been taught that praying, reading the Bible, and going to church “should be enough” to fix your marriage...Ugh!

Or even worse worse…when your partner’s checked out and you’re doing it alone 🫠

No wonder you’re exhausted.

Here's the cold hard truth:

The Answer?

You get the right tools in your pocket and you implement them. Plain and simple. 

Now, let's back up a sec before you gasp and come at us for suggesting you might need to do more than just check the spiritual boxes above. Explanation incoming…

Sometimes you need Jesus and psychology. 

And that doesn’t mean you’re any less of a Christian or human if you do. 

Proverbs even says “Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counselors there is safety.”

Chef’s kiss right there☝🏻 Need we say more?!

Bible-backed psychology tools WORK.
They are 100% proven to improve your marriage.

As Chandler from Friends said:

“I thought this was going to be the most difficult thing I was ever going to have to do, but I realized how simple it is. I love you. Any surprise that comes along the way is OK because I will always love you.”

…You just have to find the right tools. Then, give your relationship a chance to love each other through all life's surprises.

THAT is how you wake up when you’re 80, roll over to the love of your life, and realize you are still married to your best friend. 

GIVE ME THE TOOLS

We almost ended in divorce.

We used to fight like reality TV stars and avoid alone time together like the plague. We’d call each other names that warranted more than one bar of soap in the mouth and we were keeping secrets from each other. 

We’d blame the other person for our issues and never take accountability for our faults. David was losing his temper and paid more attention to fantasy sports and video games than Jenna. 

Jenna didn't pursue David intimately and eventually stopped being affectionate with him at all. Instead, she started seeking attention from other people because she wasn't getting it at home.

We’re best friends now, but…

We were both waiting for the other person to change.

But neither of us did anything to make it better– we didn't go to counseling, get involved at church, or do anything to learn what a healthy relationship actually looked like. 

We were even falling away from our faith. And that was the final wake-up call that we “knew” we weren’t gonna make it.  

At the lowest point when finally discussing divorce, we agreed we couldn’t live like this anymore. So we sought professional help and started studying God’s way of marriage– because our way was an absolute dumpster fire. 

We buckled down and started implementing every therapeutic technique and Biblical principle…

Each option alone wasn't enough. The key to reviving our dead marriage was having both the therapeutic tools and the Biblical knowledge

We also realized that to get somewhere in your relationship, you have to understand your partner's origin story. That means knowing about their past, their family, and what gives them the ick. Then understanding how it all impacts your relationship. When you do, you'll begin seeing things more clearly and can start working together to fix stuff.

Once we did that, loving each other became easy, we fought less, communicated a heck of a lot better– and we could finally say we felt happy…and we still are!

Here's what we learned:

I'm just a regular dude, here to show you that you don’t need to be a pastor or have fancy degrees to have a thriving, faith-filled marriage. We can all be “a student of marriage.” After spending years perfecting my golf swing through YouTube videos and studying for my fantasy sports drafts, I realized that I could probably be a great husband, too, if I put that same kind of effort into my marriage. So I did! Now I'm the spiritual leader of our home … and a reigning fantasy sports champion ;)

Meet David

I've been a therapist for over 10 years, helping people improve their mental health and relationships. I'm also a bit of an overthinker, and I've got award-winning dry humor- just ask my favorite person, David. But here's the thing: I wasn't always easy on him. I wasn’t always the greatest wife. And there was a time when I wasn’t practicing what I preached and it took a wake-up call for me to realize that. I needed to take my faith more seriously and implement the skills I learned in school to get our marriage back on track. That's when it hit me: others need this, too. So, I started combining Christianity and Psychology to help my clients make their marriage the best it can be.

Meet Jenna & David

What if you could learn *exactly* what you need for an “I can’t believe it’s this good” marriage in a single day?

Cause let’s be honest…Not everyone has the money or time to attend couples counseling weekly for months. And maybe you don’t even need it– you simply need the skills and godly wisdom marriage requires. 

You’ve realized that podcasts, inspirational IG accounts, and self–help books can only take you so far. 

You might feel shame that your relationship is in a bad spot and may be too embarrassed to ask for help (been there done that!) And you've likely been told that Jesus is the only way and you shouldn't need outside help if you're trusting Him. 

We’ve been there. And we suffered for years so you don’t have to. 

That's why we created a binge-worthy course that combines the tools you'd get from a marriage counselor with Biblical principles to give you that on-fire-for-Jesus, head-over-heels-in-love relationship you're craving. 

…And pssst– it’s proven to work whether you take it alone or with your spouse. *squeals in excitement* 

An online course made by a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist where you’ll learn proven tools to peacefully resolve conflict, feel deeply connected, communicate effectively,
and love each other the way God intended (even when you don’t feel like it).

Christian marriage academy

Introducing...

“At the time we took CMA we were struggling with prioritizing each other because we just had a baby and were figuring out how to juggle 3 kids, a household, and our jobs. The way you both take turns reading, sharing personal stories and even adding humor into the course, kept it fun and alive! This is the BEST course we have ever done! It's a one-stop shop for ALL the things! It’s filled with scripture, examples, activities, ideas and so much helpful content. We are not only changing our future but our children’s future! We love this course so much we want to share it with everyone we know!”

“This course was truly life-changing. You two have saved our marriage and relationship before it even started.”

“I had a better approach to conversations, was open to listening, slow to respond, and the results were meaningful & productive conversations that often turned to lighthearted conversation and even laughter! This course has given me the tools to put God first and prioritize my marriage above all things and that itself gives me peace on the daily (knowing I don’t have to be in control) and faith for things to come (the plans God has for us).

CMA is a faith-based course with comprehensive steps, useful tools, facts, and joyful analogies that will help you grow personally, spiritually, and relationally. You’ll finish the course and want to press rewind and start it all over again!”

What You’ll Learn in

4 Simple Steps

*Each proven step was developed by a Christian Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist.
“My girlfriend asked me to do CMA to help prepare us for marriage down the road. With a very demanding workload, I am in a very busy season of life but CMA proved to be well worth the time. It helped me realize areas that I want to step up and reminded me of Biblical truth that I needed to hear. I feel more confident in how I can support my girlfriend and the CMA tools helped lay the groundwork for a healthy relationship. I’d definitely recommend CMA to all the couples I know.”

-Keita, dating 10 months 

“CMA proved to be well worth the time."

“CMA helped us have conversations that I've been wanting to have but didn't know how to navigate. Your tools and lessons were so helpful in having a productive conversation because they are so practical and not overwhelming to implement. CMA helped me have more grace with my significant other, reflect on the woman I want to be, and prioritize what matters most to me. CMA is a goldmine of Biblical and relational wisdom and is such a blessing to me and my relationship.” 

- Michaela, dating 10 months

“I could cry I feel so blessed to have gotten to participate in this incredible experience!”

What our students are saying

“The course works wonders for single people that are wanting to be in a God-centered relationship. The course will help you navigate dating prior to marriage, as well. Now, I have the tools to meet the right person and begin a healthy relationship from the start! The last couple years I had to relearn what is healthy in a relationship and what is not. This program helped immensely with that and has set the tone on how my relationships will look going forward. I didn't know how impactful a Christian-based therapist would be to live my life with Christian beliefs and values.

CMA helps strengthen relationships by integrating faith with counseling and providing the tools we need to have healthy relationships. This course taught me the true meaning behind scriptures in the Bible and what is expected for a Christian marriage to succeed. CMA has set a standard for what I want and need to live in a faith-based marriage. This will help navigate dating and help keep me focused on my goals and not settling for less than what God wants for me.” 

- Jessica

“You do not have to be married to take this. Thank goodness for this course.”

I loved the balance of teaching, discussion questions, and practical takeaways from the worksheets. CMA is Biblically sound, encouraging, and FUN! You will see God's goodness in your spouse through not just the content but the intentional conversation that it sparks.
I’m so grateful for Jenna, David, and their obedience to the vision the Lord put on their hearts with CMA. Their wisdom is so clearly from the Lord, and what a work it’s doing and will do in marriages.” 

- Natalie, engaged

“I am so grateful for CMA and the life it spoke into our engagement.”

“CMA fosters great conversations and teaches you God's word as the foundation of a healthy marriage. The assignments and diagrams are great at helping you pinpoint what's holding you back and opens discussions on how as a team you can grow together.
The lifetime access is great and my fiance and I have already made plans to revisit certain lessons in the future. I believe with these tools and information we can begin our marriage the way God has intended and become an unbreakable team.” 

- Kyle, engaged

“I truly enjoyed this course!”

✓ You’re married or engaged and need better communication 

✓ You’re single or dating and eventually want to have a solid, Biblical marriage

✓ You prioritize your kids or work over your spouse and need to find a balance

✓ You’re misunderstanding each other and feeling disconnected 

✓ You miss the feeling of being in love with your partner

✓ You’ve tried everything and nothing seems to work. You’re out of ideas (and losing hope)

✓ You want tools from a professional without the time and financial commitment of weekly therapy

This Course is For You If...

✘ You’re not willing to implement the tools and strategies taught in the course

✘ You’ve already decided to end things with your partner and don’t want to put any more work into your relationship

✘ You don’t want proven tools from a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

✘ You’re not invested in growing your relationship with both your partner and God 

✘ You just want to “try it out” but aren’t willing to fully commit to doing the work

This Course is NOT For You If...

What our students are saying

“I almost didn't enroll because I knew my wife wasn't going to be able to take this course alongside me and I didn't think it would be helpful for only one partner to attend. I was completely wrong. While it definitely is great for couples, there is tremendous benefit you can gain, even if your spouse isn't able or willing to attend. This course does a great job of going deeper than surface relationship issues while remaining light and fun. It really is a merging of self-improvement, marriage counseling, and Bible study. This course helped me discover simple and applicable methods to be a better husband, father, person, and disciple of Christ.” 

- Brian, married 7 years

“The course is fantastic!”

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Q

YES! We love CMA because it’s for married couples, engaged couples, and singles who want to marry. If you’re not married yet, this will help you build the right foundation for when you find your spouse. 

ANDDDD, CMA comes with an extra packet. It rephrases the questions and tweaks the activities for the whole course. We designed it to fit those who are single, dating, or engaged. This ensures that you won’t feel left out. You also won't find any parts, questions, or activities to be irrelevant. For example, even the sex lesson adjusts the questions for single people. Singles can still learn and use the information!


What if I’m not married, can I still take the marriage course?

Q

The course is completely self-paced, so it’s up to you! You can binge them in a single day or do a little each day. You’ll get over 6 hours of video training, but keep in mind, when you do the discussion questions and activities, it will take longer than 6 hours. We designed it to fit any lifestyle, so you’re in charge. 


How long does it take to complete the online marriage course?

Q

Nope. Many people have taken it without their partner. Their partner didn’t want to do it, was too busy, etc. The course will be impactful for couples and individuals. But, for the MOST impact, we do recommend you take it as a couple.

Do we need to take Christian Marriage Academy together as a couple?

Q

Not necessarily. The course has many proven therapy tools made by a Licensed Family and Marriage Therapist. If you’re not a Christian or share those beliefs, you’ll still get a lot from the psychology in the training. However, the course is based on biblical principles. You will notice a strong theme of biblical references.

Is the course only for Christians?

Q

Once you click the “enroll now” button, you’ll be taken to a checkout page. Then, you fill in your details and submit your payment. The course will be opened in a new tab and you’re ready to get started! 

What happens after we enroll? What’s the process?

Q

You’ll have lifetime access to CMA so you can refresh as much as needed through the course of your relationship!

How long do we have access to the course materials?

Q

CMA is here to help you improve your marriage, period. It can help whether you're going through tough times or just want to make it better. It's for couples who feel stuck. It's also for those who simply want to dig deeper into what the Bible says about marriage. You learn practical tips from a therapist to make your relationship strong.

Does my relationship/marriage need to be in trouble to take CMA?

Q

God always has something more in store for us. If you want to grow closer to God and strengthen your bond with your spouse, then yes! This course combines psychology and Christianity in a unique way. It gives your marriage a special set of skills that few couples have!

What if my marriage is already doing great? Will this benefit us?

Q

We created CMA to be clear for everyone. It doesn't matter where they are on their walk with Christ, or if they are just considering following Jesus. We break it down to the basics, especially for marriage. But, we will also mix it with therapy principles, so it will be new and interesting for the seasoned believer, too. 


I am new to faith. Will this be too confusing for me?

Q

Yep! If you both need access to the course but are not in the same household, we are happy to make the course accessible to couples in long-distance relationships on a case-by-case basis. Please reach out to us if this is your specific situation so we can make accommodations. PS: We have had two couples take CMA long distance so far and they both said taking the course together while apart was a great way for them to stay connected!

Does this work for long-distance relationships?

Q

Jenna has worked with hundreds of singles and couples in private sessions; we are confident that if you implement the strategies inside of CMA, you will see positive change in your relationship. For this reason, we do not offer refunds under any circumstances.

What if I’m unhappy with the course? Can I get a refund?
