Brian and Trudy have a passion for helping couples recognize and experience the fullest satisfaction in their marriage. They were married in 1997 and have given their time teaching marriage and conflict resolution courses, mentoring couples and helping couples navigate difficult times in their marriage. Through their own experience of facing many challenges in their marriage and in listening to the struggles of other couples, they developed The Seven Bridges to help couples develop a greater understanding of God’s design for marriage, including the purpose behind marriage and the keys to a healthy marriage relationship.

Brian and Trudy’s goal is to help couples strengthen their relationship with God and understand the authority they have in Christ to live out God's design for marriage.  Both are members of the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC), certified in "Marriage Works" curriculum offered by the AACC and Light University, and trained in PREPARE/ENRICH marital counseling and education programs sponsored by Life Innovations, Inc.  Trudy is an ordained minister with a B.M. in Christian Counseling.
