“Just Do It!”

Just Do It

The Nike brand has had the slogan “Just Do It” for decades, inspiring athletes around the world. When considering exercise or other ambitions, “The road to ruin is paved with good Intentions.”  The same is true in marriage.  We have good intentions, but we rarely act on them: “We should make time for regular date nights,” or, “I should complement my spouse more.”  

When it comes to making time for an enrichment or a marriage boot camp or something to take our relationship to a better level, ha! Maybe today is the time to take up the Nike slogan and “Just Do It.” Read a book together, go to a retreat.  Or even better, dive in for the full experience of a special weekend just for the two of you. An experience where you’re guided through a process that helps you tackle the common issues that couples face – especially communication.   

For 60 years, Worldwide Marriage Encounter (WWME) has done just that, for over 3.5 million couples in nearly 100 countries. 

The Presenting Team will give you real life examples of how they overcame communication hurdles and how they’ve dealt with the ups and downs of married life. A WWME gives couples tools and ongoing community support to help them keep their relationship a priority AFTER the experience. 

We all have different expectations of how marriage should look, so we all have disappointments or even conflict in our marriage.  How long has it been since you had a good conversation without distractions? Between work, kids, and the daily grind, so many couples end up disconnecting without realizing it. 

The Marriage Encounter experience gives you a space where the two of you can pause, reflect, and reconnect privately.  To share what’s been going on inside you. To learn what’s going on inside your spouse. And to find yourself at the end of the weekend in a very different place than where you entered and loving it. It’s an experience that’s hard to put into words. 

Today could be just another day of “I’ll think about that,” and then the idea drifts off into the wind. Or, are you ready to JUST DO IT?  Come on! Make the investment of one weekend for you, your spouse, your marriage (AND your family).  

We “give up” weekends for trips, sports, hunting, hobbies, etc…. So we know we can make time for the things that are a priority to us. And what’s a bigger priority than your marriage and the quality of your future together? Maybe today is the day to take up the Nike slogan and “Just Do It.” 

Here’s what others have to say about WWME:
