Came “without hope”. Left full of hope.

"God does touch the deepest part of your heart. Our miracle happened, yours can too. God bless each couple to/with the fullness of each others heart."

"Given a chance for new life."

“I haven’t felt this way since the day I was saved.”

“I thought you could help everyone else in the room, but you’ve understood me 100%. That’s worth a million dollars to me.”

“Yesterday I watched fear walk out the door, and I’m free.” - wife from California on day 4 of the Couples Intensive program

The group interaction was awesome-I cannot imagine being blessed this much without this group of people to listen to, learn from, and share with.

I thought all the techniques were valuable and I really learned a lot even when it was another couples turn.

We attended a 4 day intensive skeptical of a group session till we realized we had similarities with everybody. ANYONE can save their marriage. NIM gave us the foundation, tools and safe environment to realize we could be happy again. I can’t thank you enough for offering this service to people to save the most precious thing for a couple, their marriage. It showed me how to be a better husband for her and how to love her as GOD wants me to. Again I can’t thank you enough. May GOD bless NIM with every couple. Bottom line we were looking for hope that it could work and we left knowing that it would work, thank you.

I found the group format the most valuable, as I found safety and acceptance in this group. I found the reality of my own personal responsibility to myself invaluable, and the emotional connection I made with my husband.

The group setting allowed us to have time between examples to absorb what we were learning. The group setting answered questions for me that I didn't bring up.

I have been to a great number of different types of marriage encounters, this is the best by far in substance to go home with.

I learned tools that I never knew existed.

I learned a lot from the intensive, where I tried and failed from just regular counseling sessions.

This experience was well beyond my own expectations.

I still cannot believe what was accomplished in just 4 days. I am so amazed how God is using this program.

I came to the intensive so fatigued by what I perceived as the "problems" we were having, and I'm leaving refreshed, having come to understand how off base I was and it's revolutionized my thinking.

I had heard from many how great the success rate was, but so glad that I was able to experience this first hand.

My husband and I just attended an intensive in early Jan (2009) and it has been a real blessing to us so far. We are still working on putting everything we learned into practice. Chris and Brett (counselors) were great! We recommend the intensive to everybody!

I've been to an intensive and I would say it's really the gift which gave me some hope to hang onto my marriage, but also to myself and to God. The real work begins once you leave, but the way these tools are expressed is beyond anything I've ever experienced.
