We’re not here to give you the cookie-cutter answers or general ideas that might have the potential to help your marriage. Instead, we want to walk alongside you on your marriage journey, providing concepts, tools, and practical insights that you can immediately apply to your marriage.

What would happen if you spent 20 minutes a day on your marriage?

Deeper is a 30-day email series where you’ll get daily tips, tools, and encouragement to take your marriage to the deep end. Every part of Deeper is research-based and home-tested.  It is delivered each day in an email that is engaging, relatable, and most importantly – gets to the point and keeps it real.
It is designed to be a catalyst for you to work toward change and growth in your marriage by providing you with your own Marriage Facilitator that you can reach by email at any time.
Think of it as having your own Personal Marriage Trainer on call 24/7. You can ask questions for clarification, get help applying what you learn to your unique relationship, or get some encouragement or motivation whenever you need it.
  • Evaluate where your marriage is and where you want it to go.
  • Be guided through essential marital strengthening skills like:
    • The secret to balancing hope and reality in your marriage.
    • Hacks for understanding yourself & your spouse on a deeper level.
    • Overlooked ways to protect & propel your marriage.
    • Neglected communication keys that strengthen your connection.
  • Be given the tools to navigate the real glitches that trip up your marriage:
    • Making disagreements & conflict a strength in your marriage.

John is the creator of the Deeper series, and he’ll be your guide through the whole 30 days. You’ll have direct access to him at every point! John and his wife, Monica, have been through the whole 30 days together and can totally vouch for every day. Not only is he a super knowledgeable guy, but he’s also a marriage guru, with two degrees under his belt. He knows how hard marriage can be in the shallow end. But he’s here to help take you and your spouse deeper.

Favorite Cereal?

Waffles. (Sorry, but the answer to any breakfast-related question is waffles. Always waffles.)

Married…

27 years to my wife, Monica. Best 27 years of my life! (She claims those 27 years contain the best 15 years of her life. Not sure how to take that. No, I’m sure. 😁 )

Kids…

Five! Shaffer, Søren, Davin, Given, and Jude. 

Favorite Book?

The Road by Cormac McCarthy. It’s a father/son post-apocalyptic survival story. Read at your own risk. It’s bleak and heavy, but incredibly beautiful. Kinda like life. 

Favorite movie? 

Don’t get me started! Terrence Malick’s experimental visual tone poem The Tree of Life. The Coen’s Oscar-winning adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s novel, No Country For Old Men. Both wrestle in their own way with life’s existential questions. (I’m fun at parties, honest!) For something a little lighter, Wes Anderson’s delightful, Fantastic Mr. Fox.

Beach or Mountains? 

I think you misspelled “Bookstore or Movies.” Both!

Would you rather be forced to dance every time you hear music or be forced to passionately sing along to every song you heard?

So, basically, which way would I rather psychologically scar innocent bystanders? I think people’s lives are already hard enough.

Don’t wait any longer.
