A heartfelt message from James & Aubrey:

We didn’t start this part of the mission because our marriage was perfect.
We started it because we almost lost everything—and somehow, we found our way back.

There was betrayal. Addiction. Distance. Nights we didn’t know if we’d make it.
Moments we didn’t even like each other, let alone feel love.
But something deeper kept calling us to stay.
Not to settle—but to rebuild.

We’ve both had our battles—my betrayal, her addiction.
We broke trust. We lost ourselves.
But we didn’t give up.
We recovered—individually and together.

Rebuilding wasn’t pretty.
It wasn’t quick.
It was hard conversations, exposed wounds, therapy, prayer, relapses, and days we both wanted to walk.

But we stayed.
We worked.
We went to war—not against each other, but for each other.

And somehow… we made it.
Not just back to stability.
Back to connection. Back to friendship. Back to a deeper kind of love—the kind that’s only possible after you’ve fought through hell together.

That’s why we created Battle-Tested Marriage.

Because we know there are couples out there who still want to fight—
but don’t know how to take the first step back.

If that’s you...
You’re not alone. And you’re not too far gone.

We’re not here to fix you.
We’re here to walk with you.
To tell the truth. To hold the tension. To help you rebuild—together.

This isn’t therapy.
It’s not performance.
It’s two people who’ve lived it, offering a way forward for those still in the fire.
