Marriage Coaching = Healthy Marriages. Healthy Homes. Healthy Communities.
Marriage. If it was meant to be easy, we wouldn’t need each other. And we wouldn't need God.

20 Years of Marriage & Counting
"So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate." Matthew 19:6
Working together to build healthy marriages since 2019.
Ian & Emily Shaw
We have spent the last several years facilitating marriage groups and coaching others to find healthy routines for developing thriving marriages.
With a combination of having to work through difficulties in our marriage of twenty years and seeing the need for mentorship and lack of support for marriages around us, we started on a journey that led us into marriage mentorship and coaching. We aim to come alongside other couples and walk with them as they gain a new understanding of how God created marriage, challenge some common myths about marriage, and help them create unity with one another and with Christ.
As marriage coaches, we believe that it is only with Christ at the center that marriages are pulled into their potential. And without healthy marriages, there are no healthy families. And without healthy families, our communities suffer as a result.
Together with our experiences and education, we are compelled to try to help others grow and thrive in their marriages.

Marriage Foundation
We believe in the biblical foundation that marriage is between one man and one woman and reflects Christ and His church (Genesis 2:18-25; Matthew 19:4-9; Ephesians 5:15-33). Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of our marriage. It is through his example that we can be Christ-like in our marriages. This gives us the model for serving each other and being conduits of grace, which is essential if you want your marriage to thrive. Listening to the Holy Spirit is a crucial piece of the puzzle. The Holy Spirit is our guiding source throughout our lives. Only with the help of the Holy Spirit can we be fully committed to each other and Christ.
What is Marriage Coaching?
Marriage coaching is a client-led partnership. It is designed to empower and encourage couples to continuously seek growth and unity in their marriages. It is a partnership between a coach couple and a client couple. The goal of this partnership is to help the client couple identify where their marriage is presently, where they would like to be, and then how to reach those goals. This is done through a thought-provoking and creative process following scripture and the Holy Spirit’s promptings. This may include, but is not limited to prayer, scripture reading, curios inquiry, research, worksheets, planning, road-block discovery, and creating solutions to problems that present themselves throughout the coaching process.
Coaches may draw on their experience to suggest various methods for the client couple to discover more about themselves and their marriage. Our sole goal is to help them discover what the Holy Spirit is leading them into to grow and strengthen their marriage. Coaching also helps clients be accountable for the goals they have set and is solution-focused.

"Ian and Emily have been such a light for me and my husband during some of our darkest times. They are invested in helping couples find healing and growth in their marriage and they do it with Jesus at the center of everything which makes their ministry blossom even more beautifully. The Lord has given them a heart for seeing marriages become healthy and they commit themselves to being a tool for Jesus in that. I have no doubt that their heart for married couples paired with their love for Jesus will be used to powerfully impact marriages and families!”
