FOUR-PART COMPILATION NOW IN PAPERBACK!

"The Marriage Experience is an absolute game-changer! Whether you are happy, hurt, or ready to hang it up. . .a much-needed framework for engaging and productive conversations that can heal and encourage every marriage."Alisha Illian, author of Chasing Perfect Founder of Women [re]Purposed

The Marriage Experience: Weekly Conversation Starters to Build the Relationship You Desire is 52 weeks of guided prompts with a short, biblically-based reading each week, designed to help couples have intentional, affirming, strengthening conversations with each other.

Couples set aside an hour or less of time each week for this experience, which is split into four thirteen-week parts, each one building on the previous and ending with a week to celebrate with fun, related activities.

PART ONE//FOUNDATION covers twelve simple building blocks to any relationship. PART TWO//FRUIT gives partners a taste of the fruit that can be enjoyed in a healthy marriage by relating it to the Fruit of the Holy Spirit, and also talks about an important intimate connection for most married couples: sex! PART THREE//FRIENDSHIP explores the importance and joys of relating to your partner as your best friend, and of protecting that friendship above all other human relationships. PART FOUR//FUTURE looks at twelve simple practices that will lead to long-term growth in your marriage.

Designed to be an easy way to stay connected with each other, even in the busiest years of life, The Marriage Experience can be repeated year after year. The prompts and readings will easily apply to each new season of life. Couples will find that their conversations will grow deeper and deeper as the years go by.

Each week is designed to be as quick or as in-depth as you want and includes: • An opening moment for you to prepare yourselves and your environment • Some light opening conversation to help you relax and focus on the instruction that follows • A one- to five-minute reading on the topic, including relevant bible references, with practical stories and application, from both perspectives • Prompts to help you experience emotional and spiritual connection through deeper conversation and action • A closing moment for you to experience closeness together with God through prayer.

“The Marriage Experience provides a great pathway for couples to communicate and draw closer to one another...a beautiful opportunity to enjoy and know the love of your life.” BRAD and MARILYN RHOADS, founders of Grace Marriage

Your time together, guided by this book, will be a Gospel-centered experience of the mind, body, and soul that will strengthen and draw you closer together, and closer to God. Deepening your own marriage experience is a lifetime journey, well worth your continued effort. Let’s start the conversation!

The Marriage Experience is for marriages in all seasons.

“This book perfectly sheds light on the beauty marriage unveils with commitment and trust in the Lord. With so many marriages failing around us, this book is exactly what we need. The Browns have perfectly laid out an easy way to connect with our spouse and take the intentional time to build a lasting marriage. I am so excited to have something written from both perspectives, of husband and wife. To be able to take in both viewpoints and then be able to focus on my marriage and apply the teachings is a gift. Well done!” Rachel Van Kluyve, author and podcast host of She Made Herself a Home

Review

A great marriage is a warm friendship, clad in a coat of love, trimmed with a scarf of romance. But how do we get there? Through The Marriage Experience. It’s simple, practical, biblical, and doable. It’s as down-to-earth as a weekly date, and as simple as reading, asking, listening, and loving. Nothing complicated about it. You can’t walk through these pages without emerging into a more enviable marriage. Whether you’re newly-weds or young-at-hearts, say, ‘I do’ to The Marriage Experience.” --Robert J. Morgan, author, speaker, Bible teacher, pastor

"After years of working with churches of virtually every denomination, after having the opportunity to serve thousands of couples through our combined roles as attorney, author, marriage pastor, counselor, and as co-founders of Grace Marriage, we know two things that are paramount in a relationship: regular and ongoing communication, and consistent, deep, emotional and spiritual intimacy. Ryan and Jenny Brown understand this connection, and in The Marriage Experience have provided
a great pathway for couples to communicate and draw closer to one another. We are so thankful to call them friends and have had the privilege of watching them model these two vital elements in their own marriage. God has shown them how to stay connected and grow together. Their marriage ministry flows from this experience, and now, we are blessed by the way they share those insights and personal stories in this book." --Brad and Marilyn Rhoads, Co-founders of Grace Marriage and featured experts on Focus on the Family

"The Marriage Experience by Ryan and Jenny Brown is a powerful yet user-friendly tool that can heal and strengthen any marriage. In it, Ryan and Jenny do a phenomenal job of guiding conversations for couples that address biblical topics with wisdom and practical advice ― allowing couples to dig deep and grow in their marriage together in a safe and helpful way. If someone is wanting to transform their marriage from one of the world into a relationship that mimics Christ and his bride - the church - then look no further than “The Marriage Experience.” --Quinn Kelly, licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Creator of sanctificationandspitup.com blog and podcast

About the Author

Ryan and Jenny Brown are the founders of TheMarriageExperience.com, an online community designed to encourage couples in any stage of marriage to support each other in their marriage journey and provide resources to help them along the way.

Ryan and Jenny have a love for marriage and a longing to give married couples a space to connect on a deeper level in their relationship. They created The Marriage Experience as a Biblical approach to creating a strong, Gospel-centered marriage, the result of ongoing prayer, Biblical study, and research, along with their years mentoring newly engaged and married couples.

The Marriage Experience project’s ultimate mission is to help couples illuminate Jesus Christ to the world, in keeping with Ephesians 5:32.

Ryan is Executive Pastor of Gatherings at Graceland Church in New Albany, Indiana, where he has served since 2013. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in business management from Indiana University Kelley School of Business, Bloomington, Indiana, and his Master of Arts in Church Ministry from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky. Ryan’s experience spans the spectrum of ministry through his pastoral service with youth, small group, discipleship, preaching, evangelism, outreach, worship, and administration, yet he would say his heart and calling are to lead and shepherd the local church. Ryan cheers for the Indiana Hoosiers, the Indianapolis Colts, and the St. Louis Cardinals. He collects sneakers, loves to read, and enjoys coaching his son’s soccer team.

Jenny is director of The Marriage Experience ministry, the result of her passion for encouraging and supporting women and strengthening marriages. She is also the creator of Simple Life, Pastor’s Wife, an inspiring online platform and faith community of women encouraging each other to live a Christ-centered life beautifully, simply, and inexpensively. Jenny is a frequent podcast host and interviewer. She received her Bachelor of Arts degree in Telecommunications from Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, and her Master of Arts in Education from Lipscomb University, Nashville, Tennessee. She taught for nine years before becoming a “stay-at-home-mompreneur.” Jenny serves alongside Ryan at Graceland Church as she manages her online platforms and their marriage ministry. She is very comfortable with a power tool in her hand and always has a building project in mind.

Ryan and Jenny were married in 2004 and have two children.
