“I just feel so free in our marriage now; I feel supported in that if I have something going on that I’m struggling with, I have a real partner that’s going to help me through that, and that we’re going to come out on the other side better than we ever could have imagined.”

Life Changing!

Oh my goodness - I could write a book with how much life has changed and the impact it has made. Don't wait until your roof is leaking to fix it. The time is now. Fix it before it's leaking. Get your marriage foundation set on God and CCM and watch your life transform.  There is another level of marriage and intimacy that they can help you unlock, which will change your life.

Max & Steph

Steward your marriage!

We are called to be good stewards with our relationships and finances- healthy and wise investments are key to receiving God’s favor in those areas, so invest in wisdom through Austin and Rachel. The hand of God is upon their ministry and work. God has blessed them to truly bless others!

Dustin & Chasity

Celebrate the Wins!

Do not be afraid! You and your partner have the capacity to love one another on a deeper level, and to grow closer together, especially if you’ve found what seems to be the bottom. You will be welcomed into a community of other husbands and wives experiencing the same struggles, and also celebrating the “wins” that you want and deserve. 

Bob & Kelly

Loving CCM!

I’m SO glad we joined CCM! The challenges and conversations are awesome, and my spouse and I are closer now than ever before – if often feels like we’re honeymooning all over again(both emotionally and physically) Because of CCM we have been able to start unpacking some heavy baggage and work towards getting rid of it all together. I never thought that was possible until this program. This has been one of those ‘I never knew what I was missing’ things. Thank you for all you do!

P & C

Stronger Than Ever.

CCM has opened new ways of thinking and viewing which we had never thought of before. It has allowed us to learn and grow stronger in our marriage and as individuals. One of the biggest things I have taken from it so far is learning ways to own my emotions. I have been able to pause, process, feel, and allow my response to be graceful and understanding. Before it was easy to be caught up in emotions and blame talk. Now I have learned what it means for both of us to each take 100% responsibility. WONDERFUL!

Vince & Sheena

Step into Freedom!

If you’re like me, the only reason you haven’t joined CCM is because you already know the junk in your life that you refuse to deal with. I knew that getting accountability with Austin would lead to greater accountability and transparency in my marriage and once I had that, joining CCM was just the icing on the cake. Think of it like an extended warranty for you marriage! So what are you wanting for? Join CCM today because the only thing you have to lose is your junk! Step into Freedom today!

Jared + Mallory


“What used to be “arguments” that would blow up and become long, drawn out, mad-at-each-other events, have really turned into these conversations we have where we get to understand the other person’s perspective, and instead of getting angry at them, really honoring them for bringing that forward and opening themselves up.”

It gets better as it gets better!

Whether your young and newly married or "more mature" and have years of marriage under your belt, CCM will help you and your spouse continue to grow and evolve in your marriage. Until our marriage fully reflects Christ and HIS perfect plan for marriage, we are committed to learning and growing ~ and so should you!

John & Jo

Lives changed FOREVER

It changed our lives forever! I wish we had found it sooner. If you want to unlock your marriage’s full potential, CCM can really help.

Mike & Jess

Break the cycle!

If you’re thinking about joining the CCM program, definitely give it a try. It’s not just about improving your relationship with your spouse, but also about understanding yourself better. Many of us carry childhood trauma or old patterns that affect how we show up in relationships, and the program gives you space to explore that. By working through those deeper layers, you learn how to break unhealthy cycles and communicate more openly with your partner. 

Nathan & Keshia

Life is so much richer.

It's the next best decision you can make outside of a personal relationship with Jesus! Our marriage, parenting and overall life is so much richer and better. We tell everyone about CCM everywhere we go!

Jonathan & Ashley Hardy

Finally…REAL Communication!

We’ve had some very needed and deep conversations lately. Topics that aren’t fun to talk about, but we both needed to. It has really made me feel closer to him than EVER. I feel like a light bulb has gone off and we’ve opened up a whole new level in our marriage.

Kirsten & Ben

HUGE breakthroughs in our marriage!

Our biggest breakthrough was quick equals young. It was like a light-bulb came on when we trained on that. As for our marriage, it’s helped us to realize that we aren’t alone in this and we aren’t the only ones going through what we’ve gone through. It’s taught us how to express what we are feeling and why in an appropriate manner that respects your spouse. The support from the Ladies group has been AMAZING too! THANK YOU Austin and Rachel!

“Before we got started with Conscious Christian Marriage, we were just kind of floating around, you know, we were good, but things weren’t great, and so when we found Conscious Christian Marriage it was very enlightening and a whole new perspective, and opened up so many doors for our marriage..”

Married 40+ Years

It’s important to be in a community of people who value marriage and are willing to put in the work for the health of their relationship. There’s value in being part of a group on the same journey sharing our experiences together. CCM provides great teaching and tools along with interaction with like-minded couples within a safe environment. We are reaping the benefits of our investment in CCM.

Joe & Wendy

Christ-Centered Community

If you’re considering joining CCM, know that Austin and Rachel have created a safe, Christ-centered community where you can connect with like-minded believers and grow both as a couple and as an individual. Through their leadership, you’ll be challenged, encouraged, and equipped to become the couple God envisions you to be. This journey will take you further than you ever thought possible, strengthening your marriage, deepening your faith, and surrounding you with a supportive community that truly cares.

Scott & Emily

Now We Understand Each Other.

Both my husband and I have gained so much from being a part of CCM. We’ve been married for 5 years and have a very strong marriage, but still have so much to learn! The live Q&A calls have been so much fun, and huge eye openers to us. It’s so freeing to learn to accept yourself as a masterpiece, not something flawed to work through, and also to learn how your spouse thinks and feels. It gives you the ability to truly love them as you were meant to.


Having the CCM community to go to for wisdom, support and prayer requests is like going to a safe, quiet place in the middle of the craziness and apathy or every day life. To put it concisely, a blessing.

Stephen & Caitlin

SO many results SO quickly!

From the initial phone call conversation, I knew I needed Rachel in my life. She is such a great listener and takes time to process the deeper meaning of what you are saying and is able to help me in ways I didn't think I needed, but I did. Her genuine and calming nature is so healing to me. I know whatever issue I bring to her regarding my marriage, she doesn't judge at all and gives me a perspective I would have NEVER thought of. I have been to over 20 years of counseling and I haven't felt like many of the counselors I have been to have actually "seen" and "heard" me like Rachel has. And I have only been a member for a MONTH! I can't wait to see the growth that will happen over the next handful of years as we stay connected and learn from Austin & Rachel. They have SO much knowledge, well beyond their years. They have deepened my husband and I marriage tremendously from giving us so many questions to think about and connect on. They are truly a one of a kind couple that I am beyond blessed to know. 

Stephanie & Max

Our Marriage Game Changer!

CCM has been a game changer for us. Before we started this program we had no idea the potential our marriage could have. We have always had a good marriage and a strong one but but CCM has really given us the right tools to make our marriage blossom. Both my husband and I have learned a lot of our self and one another, even though we have been together for 13 years. It is an amazing thing to watch your spouse really dive into your marriage and implement what we are learning in CCM. We have talked about topics we have NEVER talked about before. We have been more understanding of each others emotions and the “why” behind how we handle conflict or topics. We are able to talk about our feelings, that we never did before and so much more! We just really are working TOGETHER through everything and pouring out the love we have for one another. This has been such a blessing and SO excited to grow even more with the tools of CCM! Our marriage has changed for the good. Thank you Austin and Rachel!

Tony + Kelly


“Austin and Rachel have a way of cutting a little deep, and it’s an amazing thing when you open up to each other. Conscious Christian Marriage really gave me the tools, armed me with what we needed to connect, and inspires me to lead our family closer to God. And so that’s brought us closer to each other, and it’s brought us closer to God for sure, and it’s impacted our marriage in such a positive way.”

Huge Progress Month 1!

Seriously, we both were so ready to throw the towel in and were at a loss for what to do before we started CCM. Now we're only a month into it and we're having conversations, being understanding, taking better care of ourselves, and wanting to help each other.... we're making huge progress and on the same team about where we're headed. It just feels so good.

Ross & Jamie

Life-Long Impact

You will not regret a single moment of being involved in CCM! Getting involved and learning these techniques and new ways of thinking will impact your marriage and personal growth for the rest of your lives. Its also extremely encouraging to be a part of this community- to be surrounded by other couples who also want to better their marriage is super powerful!

Kodie & Kenzie

“Middle-Aged” and Our Marriage is Thriving!

I think a lot of middle-aged people assume everything is great in their marriage if they don’t have any, ”big issues”. Alexis and I did not have anything glaring in our relationship however we both knew that we did not have good examples growing up on either side and that we could do better. It was so great for me as a man to find CCM to help me truly communicate and be able to open up and better understand the responses I get from my spouse and all kinds of different situations. When you are truly ready to communicate on a whole new level with your spouse I cannot recommend CCM enough!

Stephen & Alexis

Our Family is stronger than it's ever been!

Rachel K. Holt and Austin J Holt, our lives are forever changed because of you. You’ve taught us it’s okay, and necessary, to feel. That’s it’s okay to be vulnerable, with each other and with others. That’s it’s okay to “be with.” Gary and I have learned so much from you both in the year and half we have known you. We walk away from every interaction with you better people. Because of you guys, our family is stronger than it has ever been. You ARE incredible human beings!

Gary & Crystal

Connect in the every day.

We got to do our date night and it was so much fun! Idk why but this date night just felt different. Like it was really purposeful. We had a blast.


The best part of this months challenges- the date night and non sexual touch. (However, it has often led to sexual touch too). But it’s been a nice way to connect in the everyday conversations with simple touches saying “I love you and I care.” It’s really meant a lot to me.

Courtney & Alex

Questions?

  • WHAT KIND OF COUPLES DO YOU WORK WITH? WHO IS THIS FOR?

    Our typical customer is a highly driven Christian couple, who sees the value in investing in their marriage as a way to honor God, honor their kids, their community and themselves. We have worked with countless couples of all (even 70+ ages).

  • I AM BUSY, WILL I HAVE TIME TO "KEEP UP"?

    Yes, you can utilize any of the training and resources of CCM at your own pace and schedule. If you're committed to seeing your marriage grow and thrive, CCM will find a natural place at the top of your priority list! 😉

  • WHAT DO YOU TEACH ON?

    We focus a huge amount of time and energy talking about emotional intelligence, communication, transparency, appreciation and personal healing.

  • IS THIS A "CHRISTIAN" PROGRAM?

    Rachel and I(Austin) are very devoted Christians, and the basis for our core values stem from the Christian faith. We believe those values, along with how God designed the human psyche, mind, heart and body reveal the core paths to finding deep personal healing and a co-commited, co-creative, and powerful marriage. 

  • WHAT IF MY SPOUSE ISN'T INTERESTED IN WORKING ON OUR MARRIAGE?

    That's okay. We've had a ton of individuals join and bring their spouses in down the road! It's a great way to show them you are willing to go first when it comes to investing in your marriage, and becoming responsible for what you bring to it. 

  • OUR MARRIAGE IS ALREADY PRETTY GOOD - WILL WE GAIN ANYTHING?

    Even better. We don't believe you have to be sick to focus on the health of your marriage. It gets better as it gets better, always. As we like to say, there is no glass cieling to how good your marriage can be and there and levels above levels that you have yet to experience together - we guarantee it!
