Back from the Marriage Retreat
Charlene and I got back from the 7th Annual ALCF Marriage Retreat this afternoon. It was awesome! Milan and Kay Yerkovich were the speakers, and they were great. They shared on the topic of “How We Love Intimately”. My goal is to write more extensively about the weekend over the course of the next week. But the gist of what they shared was that we are all affected by the events of our childhood, and certain “wounds” or “injuries” we suffer as children have a radical impact on the way we connect and bond with others, particularly our spouse.
Understanding those wounds and their effects can empower us to work on them, and transport us to a place where we are better able to connect with our spouse physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
Charlene and I had a great time, and we were pleasantly surprised to find a number of familiar faces at the retreat with us. If you go to ALCF, I highly recommend that you attend in 2011.
