Your Foundation For A Lifelong Transformation

This day is an opportunity for you to take time for yourself. A time to be real, authentic, transparent with yourself. Why are you were you are today? Where do you really want to be in your life? Let's seek God for your own healing first. You deserve to be the best version of yourself!
Saturday

Tactical Focused Couples Activities

Today you come together on the range in the morning for some marksman pistol shooting and the afternoon will be an action filled opportunity to be active together as one unit. Then your experiences together will be strategically broken down into how it relates to your marriage and how to practically implement those lessons.
Sunday

Back to Eden

Your weekend reaches its pinnacle with an encounter that transports you to the origins of it all! Uncover the purpose of your marriage, reconnect in a transformative way, considering all the individual and collective experiences you've shared as a couple and with other couples. Seize this chance to redefine your journey together and feel empowered to navigate it with joy!

STRATEGIC APPROACH

Embark on a 3-night journey that redefines your relationship from the ground up. Our Tactical Marriage Retreat is not just an event; it's a strategic approach to transforming your marriage.

This 3-Day Tactical Marriage Retreat stands apart because we recognize that genuine transformation begins within each individual. Before addressing the dynamics of the relationship, we prioritize healing and empowering each spouse individually. This unique approach ensures that the tools provided have a life-long impact. You can't fix a broken marriage if you still have two broken people. By first focusing on individual healing, we set the stage for a profound shift in mindset, laying the foundation for a transformed and thriving marriage.

About The Founders

Raymond and Leslie Funk have been married for 13 years, and their personal testimony is one of God’s restorative power over their once-broken marriage. Their marriage is healed and whole today because they were led to first heal themselves before they addressed their marriage. And that is why this retreat is designed to follow that same process of restoration. They are committed to training up couples to defend their marriage, and their families, against the enemy that would come to attack it. To show spouses how to stay In The Fight…Together!

Raymond holds a firm conviction, based on the victory Leslie and he has seen in their marriage, that if God is in the center, and the spouses’ hearts are willing, hardship or discord can be overcome when the husband and wife are committed to do the necessary things. His heart and passion is for leadership and marriage strengthening, with a focus on equipping husbands to walk in their God-given identity.

Am I allowed to take photographs on the range?

Do I have to bring ammunition, or can I buy it when I arrive?

9mm and .22 Ammunition is included in registration. Unless you advise that you are bringing a different caliber pistol with you, you do not need to bring ammo.

What if I've never shot before?

Get ready to start loving a new sport with your spouse! The range portion of the retreat will only be 2 hours maximum. Everyone will  be out on the range to experience this aspect as it relates to marriage. Every leader on this retreat is a trained Range Safety Officer and safety is our highest pirority.

How do I transport my pistol to the retreat and range?

Bring your UNLOADED pistol to the property (& then range) securely encased either in a gun case or bag. If you do not have a bag or case, coordinate with Three Cord Marriage prior to taking the pistol out of your vehicle.

Why can't I sleep in the same room as my spouse?

The property is a glamping retreat center which means there are no individual private rooms. We selected this venue purposely as it fits our tried and true approach of focusing on your own healing first. This shared sleeping space also allows the opportunity to build lasting friendships with other wives and husbands.
