Hi Alan,

It's Friday and I've got an AMAZING discussion to share with you today!

I was recently in Orlando where I had the opportunity to interview the Deals in the lead up to their New Zealand tour. These guys have such a heart for marriages and they share from a place of deep personal struggle and growth - In short they bring a lot of hope and they do so in a light, yet profound way.

Check out my interview with Ron and Nan Deal, who will be blessing marriages from Dunedin to Auckland during Marriage Week NZ soon.

So in just a bit more than a week, we'll be celebrating Marriage Week NZ 8-14 Sept.

How will you be involved? Check out the events happening around the country or think about how you might be able to champion marriages in your community.

From our home to yours,

Wynand Jacobs and the FamilyLife team
