If you found this page, welcome. We’re so glad you’re here. Whether your marriage is thriving or barely surviving, our prayer is that these short reels and resources would remind you that there is hope. We don’t speak from a place of having it all together. We speak from a place of experiencing the strength and faithfulness of the Lord. We have known failure. We have walked through deep pain in our marriage. But by God’s grace, we have also experienced the healing, restoration, and abundance that Jesus paid for on the cross. If He can restore us, He can meet you too. We’re honored you’re here. If there’s any way we can serve or encourage you, we’d love to hear from you. Katie: katie@joshandkatiewalters.com Josh: josh@joshandkatiewalters.com You don’t have to walk this journey alone. Welcome. We’re believing with you that your best days are still ahead.

There is usually one whose idea of “fun” is getting stuff done. 🫠 Play can seem silly, or even unproductive, but research tells a different story. Novel, playful experiences activate the brain’s reward system, create stronger emotional memories, and help couples feel more connected by breaking out of everyday routines. Literally getting a doctorate to justify being childlike. 😉 So let’s make this a no boring date nights (or days) summer! Drop your most creative idea in the comments so we can help those work as play people out!
