Why Couples' Journey?

In the USA, the divorce rate was 2.4 per 1,000 total population in 2022 [1]. While this is an improvement compared to 4.0 in 2000, a rate of 2.4 is still considered high. According to the PEW Research Center, out of a sample of 4,752 individuals, the divorce rate for Protestants (identified as non-Catholic Christians) was approximately 51% [2][3]. the highest among other religious groups. Sadly, this group, which should be highly aware of God’s blueprint for marriage, has been associated with high divorce rates.

In light of many well-known ministries today, it seems the statistics do not reflect a compatible outcome. Looking back at the recorded ministry work of Jesus Christ, we can recognize His various methods of sharing truth. He often asked questions, which have evolved into today’s apologetics ministry. He made powerful statements that are echoed by church leaders today. He shared numerous stories, like parables, in response to inquiries, which can be seen as modern attempts to share testimonies.
