If your marriage is struggling and you feel like all hope is gone, you've come to the right place. The pain of divorce impacts a family deeply, and affects generations to come, but the good news is there is HELP and there is HOPE...

WHO ARE WE?
We are a nationally recognized, distinctively Christian Marriage Counseling Ministry that specializes in crisis marriage situations.

HOW ARE WE DIFFERENT?
  1. We specialize in working with distressed couples- with great success. Every year hundreds of couples come from all over the country- thousands over the last 19 years, with 87% of crisis marriages restored.
  2. We have a team of trained professionals working with a proven process that is based on Biblical precepts as well as leading research on marriage relationships today.
  3. We offer a premier marriage renewal experience at an affordable price, unlike other high-cost therapy programs that run $2000-$3000.
  4. We provide an environment that is safe and non-judgmental, allowing individuals to heal and overcome the barriers between them and a thriving marriage.
  5. Individuals and marriages are restored by finding healing, forgiveness, spiritual renewal, and practical skills and tools to build a healthy, fulfilling marriage.
 
 
Why the Traditional "Hour-a-Week" counseling approach is Ineffective for Struggling Marriages...
 

romantic.cple648If you had a serious medical condition and needed surgery, would your doctor do the surgery "an hour-a-week" - for 23 weeks until it was done? Of course not - and that's why Cornerstone's intensive, marriage counseling retreat is so effective. It allows for couples needing urgent care to heal their relationship over a three-day, 23-hour marriage intensive weekend. Once this "major surgery" has been accomplished, couples are able to achieve a thorough and speedier recovery in their marriage.

Trying to heal a marriage in one-hour, weekly marriage counseling sessions is ineffective because most issues can't be resolved in a one-hour session. In one-hour sessions, often by the time the couple gets to the root of an issue-time has run out. As a result, couples often end up opening old wounds and then leaving incomplete- discouraged and feeling more hopeless than before. Yet, over 87% of couples who attend our Marriage Renewal Retreats and seminars leave re-committed to their marriage,'' including even those where there's been infidelity and/or separation.

 
A Word From Marriage Expert Dennis Rainey President, FamilyLife

"This ministry has already made a difference in the lives of thousands of couples. Their work translates into lives that have been changed, marriages saved, and families strengthened. That's why it's with complete pleasure that I wholeheartedly recommend Cornerstone Marriage & Family Ministries."


What Is A New Beginning, Marriage Renewal Retreat?

happyblkcpleromanticcple3
Cornerstone's nationally acclaimed marriage counseling retreat consists of a 3-day/2-night, 22 hour marriage intensive weekend that offers a safe, supportive environment where a Biblical process for healing hurts, resolving conflicts and restoring trust is facilitated.
 
Our accelerated process for restoring and enriching marital relationships begins with a Confidential Marital and Individual Assessment administered which allows couples a safe process to express their needs, identify barriers to intimacy and relational issues, and goals privately. Our intensive process helps spouses identify and address underlying issues, facilitate healing of painful emotions, and make necessary changes. Biblical principles are the basis of therapeutic processes that facilitate genuine healing, growth and change.
 
Spouses are challenged and empowered to take an honest look at themselves and their marriage, deal with relevant issues, heal hurts, put the past behind, and rediscover the experience of affection, true intimacy and friendship in their marriage.
 
Our team of experienced, compassionate Christian counselors walks you and your spouse step-by-step through guided exercises that reveal the hidden barriers keeping your marriage from thriving, and guides you in taking the steps to resolve your issues, heal your relationship and rebuild a healthy, more satisfying marriage.After the weekend a series of four After-care sessions and optional private tele-coaching sessions are available to help you make changes and maximize your forward momentum.

What a Marriage Renewal Weekend is NOT?

NOT just an informational seminar where you sit in a room with a crowd of people, take lot of notes, then go home and try to do the work of repairing your relationship on your own.

  • Nobody is asked to share anything about their issues with other couples in a group. To have to talk about marital problems in a group can be not only embarassing and uncomfortable, but also counter-productive and detrimental to the healing process.
  • Our format is more private and comfortable, offering couples the safety and confidentiality they need to communicate through tough issues and successfully resolve conflicts, solve problems, and heal hurts in their relationships. 
 
Perhaps you've tried and still not found answers? Don't give up hope...
 
 We want to assure you- here at Cornerstone you'll find caring, distinctively Christian, professional and practical help that's Biblical, proven and effective. God is able and wants to restore your marriage. We constantly see Him performing miracles...healing relationships and restoring marriages through our Marriage Renewal Seminars, Workshops and Retreats all the time. Is this program for you? The question is:
 
 
If God wanted to give you a miracle and restore your marriage, would you be willing to accept it?
 
---------------------------------------
Marriage Prayer Request-
We'll put your first names on our prayer list and pray specifically for you and your marriage over the next 30 days(or longer if you renew your request).
---------------------------------------
 
 
 
In a post-weekend survey of participants who attended a Cornerstone Marriage Counseling Retreat, 87% reported they reconciled their relationships and recommitted to their marriages.*

By the end of the weekend in our marriage retreats, most of the couples have resolved the hurts and issues causing their pain. Once their relationships are reconciled, barriers are removed, and in most cases affection is restored. The remainder of the weekend is then spent equiping them with the skills and tools to create and sustain a healthy marriage.

Cornerstone 's distinctively Christian marriage counseling retreats utilize a biblical, experiential, guided approach that is the most powerful format for restoring marriages we have ever seen. Developed over nineteen years working with couples in crisis who for the most part felt hopeless, our program is proven effective in restoring 4 of 5 marriages, and has helped thousands of couples overcome their barriers and experience the kind of caring, intimate marriage they long for.

"What I liked best was learning how to talk through problem areas without all the angry upsets and arguments"

Engineer, San Antonio, TX Married 9 years

----------------

"We almost didn't make it...At one point on the drive down, the communication got so bad, I got out of the car and started walking away. And I came...thinking "This is our last chance, if it doesn't work, I give up, I'm done." Me, my husband, and my marriage were set on a different course. We found answers and set us free from core issues that were ruining our marriage."

Singer/Entertainer, Atlanta, GA, married 13 years,

----------------

"I had decided that I would just live silently unhappy, because I know divorce is not what I promised. My husband and I no longer communicated respectfully and I only came because I figured I have to do my part before I can say it just won't work. Thanks to the process of the weekend, I now have a happy home..."

Real Estate Agent, married 16 years

--------------

The retreat is not conducted in a "group counseling" format nor do we ask anyone to share about their problems in the group setting. Our program utilizes a guided, nore private, experiential approach, consisting of training modules designed to walk you and your spouse through a healing process, while equipping you with effective communication tools designed to empower you and your spouse to communicate step-by-step through sensitive and difficult issues, and resolve your conflicts successfully.
