About

Just an introduction…

MarriageMedics is an effort to triage your marriage while it is still living…..

…and a living marriage can exist in varying forms and health.  We cannot measure the health of your marriage…only you can.   You already know if your marriage is healthy or not.  You already know if something needs your attention.   If your marriage can use MarriageMedics, we are here to help.

Somethings in life can be handled without missing much of a beat and then there are some things that call for an all stop.  How do we know when our physical bodies are not well?  Usually, we either have pain or we see that it is not functioning as it should.  The only way we know that our bodies need assistance is to experience something off, out of the normal everyday properly functioning us.  It may be as small as a splinter in the tip of our finger or as major as a life changing emergency, but we usually know when we need to stop and give attention to our bodies. 

With this principle in mind, we need to keep check on our mental, emotional, and spiritual health as well.  It is here that most marriages find the pains of life.  We know sometimes physical ailments can present struggles in our marriages, but we find that it is usually the ones we cannot see or touch that make for most of the misunderstandings and wounds in our marriages.  Please allow someone to help, not by telling you what to do, but by showing you what can be done.  Some things we can resolved on our own, and how thankful we should be for this.  Some things we cannot remedy because we cannot see that it is a problem. 

               We use the term MarriageMedics because we need someone to render aid to us from time to time.  Let us clarify further, a medic is defined as “a medical noncommissioned officer who gives first aid in combat; aidman; corpsman.”  We are intending to be a resource for nothing more than “the essentials” in your married life during the difficult times most of us face by listening with compassionate understanding, partnering with those with like troubles, and equipping you with someone to help you be successful and victories in the trials of this life.  It is not our aim nor claim to be the “qualified resident experts” in the medical profession of counseling, philosophy, rehabilitation, or therapy.   We are offering our work as a ministry and in such only want to talk with you, pray with you and for you, and lead you to the source of all things good.  We do not present any diagnoses in anything other than love, light and life.  And these are not our renderings, but we are simply passing on the ones of the Great Physician. 

Your marriage is not the battlefield!!  Your marriage, the joining of your two souls in a bond of togetherness, will always be lived in or on the battlefield of life.  This is where the Medic aspect of MarriageMedics will be used and applied.  We only want to render to you the aid necessary to point you to the Great Physician, who has all the answers and abilities to heal your lives individually as well as your marriage.  There is no shame in calling for a medic on the battlefield!  As a matter of fact, the only ones who are not calling for a medic on the battlefield are those who are uninjured or those who are no longer in the fight.  MarriageMedics wants to help in any way we can, and in this effort we will provide you with:  reading material, one on one conversations, couples conversations, opportunities to attend lectures on marriage and related talks, as well as prayer and understanding for what you are experiencing.  Of course, all situations are never the same, but we can honestly say to you that we have been through our share of trials and turbulence in our marriage.

We do not claim to be the clinical experts, as a matter of fact, we do not claim to be clinically geared or endeavored.    We are solely interested in offering information and advise from the principles taught by truths gathered from ancient sources.  We feel it should be noted that the ancients knew more about life than some of us moderns do in light of the natural world and the ability to observe the plain truth and facts around us, in us and about us.  This information is old but accurate, it is ancient but not out of date, it is archaic and applicable in every life today just as it was then (if not more).

Who can use MarriageMedics?

To those newly married, we congratulate you on making the decision to share your life with someone special.  We know that you are excited to begin this life together and wish nothing but the very best for you.  It is here that you have a great opportunity to put time and effort into understanding your place in the life of another.   It is also here that you have the thrill of adding and giving so much to the marriage relationship.  Please allow us to assist you in the early stages of life by providing some foundational support and some roadmap advice to avoid the pit falls that can pop up along the way.

If you have been married for years and are experiencing the trials now that all marriages at some point go through, we are with you.  We have much to offer during this stage of life.  We are there as well, meaning we have lived long enough to have some miles under our feet, we can relate to where you are by having been there ourselves.  We are on the journey ourselves….

Thinking of those who are older and are in the golden times of your life, we would love to learn from you, seeing we are hopefully on our way to where you are.  We believe the truth of life is so valuable that we should ever be learning and passing that truth along to others.  Please give us your help and knowledge as we work to better understand life.  It is our prayer that through the relationships and connections we build through this work we will be better able to live the principles we are taught and have the privilege to teach.  It is with this effort in mind, we wish to use you as a resource not only for MarriageMedics but also for those with whom we come in contact wanting to improve their lives.

MarriageMedics is the result of a marriage that was and is ….ours.
