Marriage restoration

Christian marriage restoration: God is still in the business of rebuilding

Maybe nothing dramatic happened. You just drifted, fought the same fight a hundred times, or stopped praying together. Or maybe something dramatic did happen. Either way, restoration is God's specialty.

What restoration really means

Restoration is not going back to the way things were. It is God building something new and stronger on the same covenant. Terrie Beeman and her husband are proof: after he told her he wanted out, God restored their marriage, and today they are 34 years strong and teaching other couples to fight for theirs.

Five marks of a marriage on the road to restoration

  1. God moves back to the center. Individually first, then together.
  2. Each spouse looks at their own heart. Pride, resentment and unforgiveness get named and surrendered.
  3. You fight the problem, not each other. See How to Fight for Your Marriage.
  4. Trust is rebuilt with actions. Not promises alone.
  5. You stop fighting alone. Coaching, prayer partners and community keep you going on hard days.

It varies. Terrie Beeman's own restoration came after a 365-day season of prayer and spiritual warfare. Some couples see change in weeks; others stand for years.
