Deeply Rooted Marriage
Our mission is to equip and encourage marriages by educating couples to prepare for marriage, enrich their marriage, and reclaim a marriage in crisis for the purposes of God by pointing them to Jesus Christ and His Word.
"But blessed is the man who trusts me, God, the woman who sticks with God. They're like trees replanted in Eden, putting down roots near the rivers- Never a worry through the hottest of summers, never dropping a leaf, Serene and calm through droughts, bearing fresh fruit every season."
Jeremiah 17:7-8 The Message
Kris and Anna Locke met in a high school algebra class, dated through college and were married just after graduation. They were best friends and high school sweethearts, but what should have been a fairy tale was far from it as they did not know how to have and maintain a healthy marriage. Over the first 10 years of marriage they slowly drifted apart until their marriage was hanging on by a thread. A financial meltdown got their attention and they surrendered their lives, marriage and family to Jesus.
For the next several years, Kris and Anna invested in learning to love one another in marriage as God intended and designed marriage to work. They began sharing their testimony with others and have had the opportunity to encourage and support other couples and families through teaching, coaching and leading a small group couples ministry. They especially enjoy teaching on how to have strong communication, a firm financial foundation, and a thriving family.
