One Another Marriage

What a wonderful encouragement!

Theresa thought 13 years of marriage meant she and David had it all figured out—until a simple relationship assessment revealed how much more they could grow.

💬 It became a turning point in their marriage and the start of a powerful calling to help others. In our latest blog, Theresa shares their story of growth, healing, and legacy-building.

💛 Whether you're just starting out or decades in, there's always a next step. Read the full story—and take the same relationship assessment that helped change everything: https://www.encompasscc.org/blog/how-one-tool-strengthened-our-marriage

Dear One Another Couples- Theresa and I would love to have you attend the Encompass Connection Center cornerstone event in February of 2025. RSVP at the link in the comments.

Dear Friends,
We are excited to announce that, effective June 1, David Marine Mabry and Theresa Mabry will be the co-directors of Encompass Connection Center based out of Springfield, Ohio.
This will allow us to engage in full-time marriage, family, and organizational relationship ministry.
(David will no longer serve as Dean of Graduate Studies for Barclay College but will continue teaching marriage and family courses for the school.)

ECC is committed to seeing family trees and organizational cultures forever changed by using timeless values and skills that inspire and equip relationships. One Another Marriage will merge with ECC to implement the OAM program and curriculum.

We deeply appreciate the many people who have connected with OAM over the years, especially the countless "One Another Couples" who partnered with us to create vibrant and healthy marriages.

After June 1, you can find us at Encompass Connection Center and https://www.encompasscc.org/.

Encompass connection center, family trees and organizational cultures forever changed. What if you made small changes that, over time, ​ ​could greatly enhance ​your marriage and relationships? Make your relationships awesome and avoid hurt and frustration.

ANNOUNCEMENT
COMING SOON

You and your spouse are teammates ... work together in all areas of your life. 👍
"Teamwork makes the dreamwork"

Spend Quality Time every day with your spouse ... 5 - 10 minutes of focused uninterrupted time together. Make sure you are not discussing "other people" and sharing "business" items of your day but truly sharing your heart with each other. ❤️
- share your Highs and Lows of your day
- share an appreciation for your spouse
- listen attentively
- hold hands or touch in some way during this quality time

Walking hand in hand with you on this marriage journey is one of my favorite things to do. 🥰

Psalm 34:18
"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."

Hug your loved one a little extra tighter today for we do not know the amount of days we have together.

Remember, research shows that healthy couples have two important characteristics ...
#1 they share daily appreciations for their spouse
#2 they talk about future hopes/dreams together (short term, mid term, long term dreams)

Challenge yourselves to be a healthy couple 💕

Is your marriage boring? 🧐

Pockets of boredom can happen in a marriage but long lasting boredom can be detrimental to your relationship. Keep pressing on with your spouse to engage in the conversation about what is happening.
* Change up your routine or schedule
* Try a new hobby or interest together
* Surprise your spouse in a big or small way

Ultimately, take notice of when your marriage stays bored for too long of a season and take action. ❤️
