    “I believe this a great course. If you want tools which are definitely useful toward examining and exploring yourself, understanding others and bettering any of your relationships, do this. Sign-up and assert yourself. You won’t be disappointed. I sure wasn’t. It’s simple and powerful stuff! I think it will make me easier to get along with and I believe this will make my relationships last longer and be more peaceful.” – Eddie, Tallahassee, FL

    “Adventures in Marriage is a great topical course that anyone who is serious about having a successful marriage should take.

I recommend Adventures in Marriage because it works!” – Jevon, Crawfordville, FL

    “I liked the fact that it is a truthful program that doesn’t water down the issues.”

    “I recommend this course to each and every person out there. I’ve been split up from my wife for 16 years and seen a lot of the problems we had in this AIM Course. I am hoping that with what I’ve learned that I can reconcile with my wife and rebuild (slowly but surely) our marriage that should have done ended in divorce. Thank you AIM for what you opened my eyes to and taught me to fix it. To anyone that reads this – You must take this course!” – Matthew, Crawfordville, FL

    “If you are serious about your marriage take this course and learn to apply, even if you are not married learn to know what to avoid. What you put in is what you are going to get out of it. So my advice is to be teachable, unlearn all your old ways, and pattern your life differently for the better of you and your wife and kids.” – Eric, Crawfordville, FL

    “Take it sooner than later! Two days before I started Adventures in Marriage my wife told me she was going to start seeing another man after we had been together for 22 years, married for 20.  While the future remains to be seen, I wish I had pressed harder for us to go to counseling years ago. We are finally communicating now but I know there wouldn’t have been another man if we had talked and communicated openly.” – Christopher, Vero Beach, FL

    “I learned how I am much like and act like the things listed in the book.” – John, Austin, TX

    “Adventures in Marriage brought an awareness into my life about relationships that I had no idea existed. Once I found out what I didn’t know I was able to practice it. Now my relationships and life is much more enjoyable.” – Timothy, Panama City, FL

    “It will help me when I get out to re-build our marriage back up as two warriors to fight for our marriage.”



    We would like to take a brief moment to share some of the comments we received from our AIM classes at three separate correctional institutions. They were such an encouragement to Live the Life and I believe they will be to you, as well. Please take time to read each of them. You’ll be glad you did! There is a question on the back of the participant’s workbooks that reads: “What would you like to say directly to people considering taking AIM that would help them decide whether this is for them and worth their time and money?” Here are just a few of their responses:


    “That it is worth it and that I have been waiting for this class since 2010. I’ll look you up when I get out. I would like to take it again”
  • “Pay attention! This has a lot of good points no matter if you’re married or not”
  • “Please take this…it connects so many things together for me. Many things I can do, I just needed to know what to do and how to do it!”
  • “If you are serious about the relationships in your life, I believe this class is very well put together, the tools are good and helpful. I can clearly see how they can work in all relationships”
  • “Adventures in Marriage is an awesome class! The information is great...Take it! Take it! Take it!”
  • “I would tell them to do everything in their power to do or exercise what they received”
  • “Try it and put forth the effort and you will be surprised at the progress that will be made on your part as well as your spouse”
  • “If you are thinking of marrying, want to make your marriage stronger, or want to improve any type of relationship, this seminar is well worth the time, money and effort”
  • “The realization of fighting tactics often utilized, and the necessity to acknowledge one’s love language will prove to be especially helpful in the future”
  • “If I had (pressed) insisted on taking this course, ideally, or a similar one close to home, I suspect I wouldn’t have gotten a call like I did that my wife of 20 years has decided to see someone else”
  • “This program maintains some very helpful information for those struggling to make any corrections to their/your relationship”
  • “At first I didn’t think it was going to be worth it, but it turned out to be one of the best things I did. Thank You”
  • “I feel it is a potentially life changing course if you and your spouse commit and work it. Even a single person will benefit greatly”

Adventures in Marriage II (AIM II) Program Evaluation Comments (Hernando CI)

“I learned that I have to be a better listener. I also realized any unresolved matters I have from past relationships intimate or not can carry over to my marriage.”
“The most helpful part of AIM II was how to discover the real reasons I react and feel the way I do.  One element I learned that I will apply is the fence posts for events in my life as a way to share some understanding of why I feel and react.”
“I learned how to be a better wife when I get married.”
“The most helpful or important information I learned in AIM II is how to control my behaviors and how to solve issues by getting to the core of our behaviors and problems.”

“I learned that I should listen more and talk less and to understand my husband’s feelings about everything.  I would like to talk more about the good times I had with my husband.”

“The most important information I gained from AIM II was about my legacy I will leave behind.”

“The most helpful knowledge I gained from AIM II was that we both have to take the time to hear each other.”
“The most helpful thing I gained from AIM II was that we can’t go back, we need to work on the present.  I have recognized problems from the past and how to resolve and deal with situations.”
“Learning that we usually think that the person is the problem instead of working together to resolve what the problem actually was and being able to resolve it as a couple was the most valuable knowledge I gained in AIM II.  To stop punishing for things that happened to me in my past and to treat his core fears as if they are important to me, even if I think he is overreacting.”
“I learned we are all messed up and we have triggers from our past that unless we deal with them, we will remain in the past.  And that we need to talk and to validate the other person’s feelings and emotions.”
“The most important lesson I gained from AIM II was that it is so important to be open and honest with each other. I have a more positive outlook that there is hope in re-building my marriage.”



Just one more reminder of why we do the work that we do and the dramatic impact we are having on people’s lives!
