I learned to forgive and was able to receive God's forgiveness.

Leah, Houston, Texas

Those who knew me before I went through boot camp have seen the transformation; I'm still in awe of how far I've come. I now have the confidence to do all that I've been called to do. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to move to the next level in their life. I am so thankful that someone took the time to tell me about this program, the experience and tools that I got from boot camp have made a huge impact in my life. My relationships with others are healthier, even with Christ!

Samantha - Harrisburg, PA

Before attending the Marriage Camp my husband and I had gone threw a separation and filed for divorce. We had only recently tried getting back together and working things out, which wasn't going very well. I was a little apprehensive wondering if it was even going to work for us.. I can't believe how moving it was. We are more in love now then we have EVER been.. We still have our moments don't get me wrong.. But we have the tools to get threw almost anything.

We are more madly in love than when we married. We made many friends and look forward to sharing with them the rest of our lives. We could not have asked for a better Life and Marraige enrichment than attending the Boot Camp. We are committed to helping others find the love that we rediscovered. You WILL BE amazed!

Words cannot always express how my life was changed in the four days at the Marriage Boot Camp. I can say it changed my life & the life of my spouse & enriched us in so many ways. - Member of: Willowcreek Fellowship

Michelle, Tucson, AZ

I came to marriage bootcamp as a last attempt to save my marriage. Hoping and praying it would help me get through to my husband. What I realized was I was broke and played a huge part in my marriage falling apart. My husband quit the program and that left me. I had a great deal of support and inspired other couples not to end up like me. I am at peace now with the divorce and can let go and move on. I wouldnt have been able to do this without the help I received from the trainers. Thank you so much! I am truly a better person for this experience.

Clare - Houston, TX

I want to share with you the experience my husband & I had doing this marriage retreat boot camp. First of all, when we got there it appeared that we shouldn't have gone. I say that because on a scale of 1-10, We both described ourselves as a 7. The simple fact of the matter is, just the "minor" issues we had been facing in our marriage were controlling our lives. This camp, like I said was not about us as a couple rather our own individual baggage. Trust me...I didn't think I had baggage. Boy, was I wrong. I had to finally do myself a great favor and realize I had allowed things in my past to really sabotage everything in my life. I am finally relaxed....We laughed and cut up the whole way home...which we only did when we were dating. This was the best experience of my life.. If I can inspire one person to have the same experience, I promise you it would be the best thing you've ever done. Consider being willing to take the greatest risk and reap the best reward of your life.

Zach - Wylie, TX

The Marriage Boot Camp allowed me to finally forgive myself. I carried pain, guilt, and shame for 17 years! I now see that I AM lovable and I deserve to be loved. I now know my purpose in life. I am a lovable, free, gentle giant that will be a lighthouse to let God's light shine through and help others find victory in God's plan for their lives. The Boot Camp has brought my marriage back together. My wife and I have pure joy! I am a new husband and a new father. My family is whole!

My husband and I are thrilled with the outcome of the Marriage Retreat Bootcamp. We have been able to take what we learned and apply it to our lives. It's only been two weeks and there is a dramatic change in our lives already. Four months ago, I was ready to take my children and leave my husband but the Lord sent us to the Marriage Bootcamp to learn how to love and respect each other. Jim and David were awesome!

Lorna - VI

I am from the british virgin islands in the caribbean and i saw your show last night and finally know there is a chance for my marriage to work. I just wish we had this kind of camp here in the caribbean

Anita -Pittsburg, PA

My husband and I have just concluded a true "life-changing" experience at the marriage seminar boot camp. We had reached the point after nearly two years of marriage, that things were so bad that we should either find help or split. Quite frankly I was in favor of the latter, thinking that I had tried hard enough already. We committed to all the activities, to the people in our small groups and to the whole larger group. David Bishop and Jim Carroll worked as hard if not harder than we did! Our trainers were right there to keep us straight when needed. We worked and came out happy and better equipped to solve "life's little problems". We feel renewed, and communicate in a loving way. Each day is better.

Amber - Irving, TX

I never would have thought that the one thing hurting my marriage the most was something that happened years ago. I thought I was over it. This marriage seminar changed my life in ways that i never could have imagined. Jim and David are definately heaven sent!!

Fanny - Harrisburg, PA

The Marriage Seminar was the best could happened in my life. I feel more confident,capable and forgiven. God bless all who make this true.

Debbie - Winnipeg

I'm very happy and honored to have been part of the Life Enrichment Boot Camp. It has opened my eyes and heart to choose to be to free of my hurt and pain.

Brenda

We just attended the Santa Ana bootcamp with Ron and Tina, I urge you to try it. If you are married, want more, don\'t know how you\'re going to make it, sign up. If you are feeling bitter, angry, guilty or ashamed, sign up. If your spouse bothers you, disgusts you, bores you, or embarrasses you, sign up. If you don\'t remember why you chose the person you are with and dream about leaving, sign up. If it is all your spouse’s fault, sign up. Before signing the divorce papers, attend this seminar. Make it a condition before signing the divorce papers. Make sure your spouse comes. It may fail, but this bootcamp will help you feel you did what you could. My husband and I were not on the brink of divorce (most of the time) but we’ve had some problems. We were losing hope, we were tired of the fighting and couldn’t see a way to stop. I was scared. And today, we’re more in love with each other than we\'ve ever been. We arrived with a “take what you can get and leave the rest” attititude and it worked, we felt safe enough to make our own choices and found our way back to each other, actually, we found our way to a place than is better than we ever had. The price is right. We’ve shopped around and it is a bargain because they rely on us alumni to sponsor others. So, if you don’t get anything out of it, you don’t have to sponsor anyone. The freedom to make our own choices helped me get around my discomfort with their Christian bias in the realm of spirituality. Really, divorce is so difficult, wouldn’t it be easy of you didn’t want a divorce and could be happier than you’d ever been? Maybe it’s not for you, but maybe it is…

Tina, Princeton, Texas

After 10 months of marriage I separated from my husband in December 2008. I then, realized that I was miserable without him also so after 2 months apart we decided to give it another chance. This time was going to be different. We were going to do it right. We would treat each other right, trust and be trust worthy, leave the past in the past and start again. Then, while he was at work on the day we had planned for him to come back home I got a message that the woman he “wasn’t” having an affair with was pregnant. I was devastated. I gave up, my life wasn’t worth living anymore, I couldn’t get out of bed, I shut all my friends and family out and the only thing keeping suicide from being an option was my children. I came to the realization that no matter how many times we decided to work it out or do it right we couldn’t do it. I was a failure. I sat down at my computer to start researching divorce recovery information because I knew I would need it as this was my second marriage I came across the Marriage Boot Camp website. I thought I would take the love test just to see what it said about me. I knew there was no way that I could afford the boot camp, that it was probably too far to travel and several months away so looking at that was not a consideration. After I took the test I was really impressed with the answers so I thought I would just search around the site to see if there was anything else I might find useful and I just happen to accidentally click on the boot camp information and it said the next seminar was in 5 days and was only 20 minutes away. I didn’t get excited because I knew I couldn’t afford it as I just lost my job then I saw the little note on the side about the sponsors, but sent an email for information just in case. I couldn’t stop thinking about it… what if there was a way to really save my marriage… I had to know so I called full of skepticism and in the middle of a full on anxiety attack and the voice on the other end of the phone was so warm and everything he said was positive. They would help us. As soon as I hung up I felt like a weight had been lifted off me. This was the answer to all my prayers. I immediately called my husband who wasn’t speaking to me at the time and told him God had put the answer right in front of me. I’m sure he thought I had lost my mind. Maybe I had… but it was my only hope. I have had so many things in my life that have caused me pain. From the moment I was born and abandoned, then adopted in to a family where physical, emotional and sexual abuse were the experiences of my childhood. I had a failed marriage which I carried so much guilt for breaking up my kids from their father. A now my last shot of love and happiness was slipping out of my hands. I believe in karma and I was so resentful at God because I’ve spent my whole life trying to treat people right, help others, etc. Unselfish acts of kindness were my purpose so what was wrong with me or what had I done to deserve all the abuse, hurt and pain that I had suffered. Obviously I wasn’t the problem, but if I could get my husband there I had hope that he would realize what he was doing to me and take responsibility for his actions and then I would finally be relieved of the suffering he had caused me. We learned so much and the first and most important was that I was broken too. One miracle for us was that we actually listened to each other. This was a FIRST for us!!! On the way home I found myself making amends to him for not making him feel important in my life and for speaking negatively about him to my friends and family. It never crossed my mind how those actions made him feel, even though, he had told me at least 50 times before. This was a HUGE step for us. I can say that I feel much calmer as a result of this changed attitude. Before the boot camp, I was irritated and agitated with our situation ALL THE TIME!! Now, I can finally relax because we have been given the tools we need to let go of our baggage, forgive, trust and as a result of that my relationship with God has become much stronger. I realize, though, that we have a lot of work ahead of us before things are totally healed and changes are permanent. The BEST part was that you provided follow-up steps, an accountability partner, and help if we need it. I was concerned about whether we would be able to stay on the right path.. If we fail, it is only because we fail to follow through on the things we promised to do. To say this has been a life changing event is an understatement. Thank you so much for blessing our life.

Lisa, Dubberly, Louisiana

My husband and I are July '06 graduates of the Boot Camp. The experience we had there has changed our lives forever, and our marriage is so much better for it. We are happier and healthier than we have ever been, and I attribute that to the work we did at the Boot Camp. I have faithfully watched every episode of the television series and cheered for each and every couple there, even those who weren't "featured." I know firsthand that it is hard, hard work, but so worth it in the end!
