Strengthen your marriage with a fun evening out and an exciting challenge that will help you and your spouse grow closer than ever before.  This is a FREE 2 hour webcast event at Hope Church presented by Focus on the Family.

Meet the Speakers:

Dr. Greg & Erin Smalley

Dr. Greg & Erin Smalley deliver insightful teachings for marriages and families. The Smalleys desire to help people grow in the knowledge and skills needed to build healthy marriages where both spouses become conformed to the image of the Lord. Erin also is passionate about helping women in marriage, parenting and everyday issues. Hear about Greg’s strange conversation with his wife.

Jeff Allen

Jeff Allen is the best at what he does — making people laugh as hard as humanly possible. His Happy Wife, Happy Life message of a marriage gone wrong and redeemed has given laughter and encouragement to millions of people. Jeff’s comedy drives home the humor in everyday family life and the joy derived from a healthy marriage.
Watch Jeff’s clip on wedding anniversaries.

Michael O’Brien

Michael O’Brien is probably best known for his seven years as lead singer of the Christian band Newsong, but he has been in the music ministry for some 20 years. Through his music, Michael shares how God restored and healed his marriage, and encourages couples that have been contemplating divorce (like he and his wife were at one point). See Michael’s music video, Beautiful You.
