Since 1990, FamilyLife® has been committed to encourage, equip and motivate couples to strengthen their marriage and family relationships. We do that nationwide through our Weekend to Remember® marriage getaways, A Day Together relationship seminars, FamilyLife Today® radio broadcasts, video training resources, and our many other resources and content.
