What our participants are saying
"This workshop showed me the mindset that I had been missing and allowed me, for the first time, to rewind conversations that were going sideways, ensure understanding, and be challenged in an affirming way that left us both satisfied and grateful for each other. I look forward to applying what I've learned to all our future conversations and with our children. Thank you so much for your wisdom! "
--TT
"At first the couple was skeptical and the husband insisted they had no pressing issue but they underwent a heart transformation without them realizing it. They began with a “safe” topic, but I could sense the undercurrent tension between them as the husband being the speaker conveyed what’s in his heart. After they finished, the husband who mostly kept quiet earlier couldn’t stop talking. He was so grateful for the courageous conversation and found the tool to be so powerful and that it will improve their relationship"
-- A Couple San Jose, CA
"We realized our “small requests” of each other was actually hurting our relationship. After our CC, both of us are now excited about finding a new way to engage instead of regularly offending each other."
-- A couple from Los Gatos, CA
"Thank you for the Courageous Conversation. It was an intervention we really needed to breathe life again and fan the flames of fire in our marriage."
-- Amber Livermore, CA
"This is a best-kept secret! It’s one of the most potent tools I have ever used in my 35 years as a Christian. By regularly speaking out loud my personal True Identity Statement, my mind has been transformed, my spirit strengthened, and I have been healed of several emotional hurts & childhood wounds.”
--AH
"We are really grateful to have learned this framework! Last night, M and I spent an hour and a half with some dear godly Christian friends who were really stuck and one was ready to leave the marriage. I’m happy to report that everything in the Courageous Conversation works really well, step-by-step. Of course, there will be more Courageous Conversations needed, but I saw the burden lifted off the shoulders of the wife and I saw hope enter in for the first time in a long while."
-- ET
"There is no guarantee that we will have an easy life. Everyone needs comfort & needs to learn to comfort others. With this workshop, I discovered a safe and easy way to guide myself, my spouse, my family and others. I can see how doing things God’s way enables us to experience more joy."
