The CCM Members Coaching Program
Weekly live coaching, men's and women's calls, every course we have ever built, and a room full of couples who want to be sharpened rather than flattered.
Why It Works
You can learn every communication technique in print and still lose, because the problem is not usually your vocabulary. It is the blueprint underneath it. If your marriage exists to make you happy, then every moment of correction feels like a threat, and you will spend years defending yourself against the exact thing God is using to grow you.
Inside CCM we do the deeper work. We disarm the old stories and wounds that get triggered, we replace unspoken expectations with clear agreements, and we hold the standard where it belongs. Not a slightly better version of you tomorrow. Christ.
95 percent of what we train on inside CCM never makes it to the podcast. This is where the real work happens.
What's Included
A live couples call with Austin and Rachel every week, plus separate men's and women's group calls. Teaching, hot seats, and two-on-two breakouts with other couples.
The Journey, Foundations, The Healing Journey, Re-Relate, Spiritual Intimacy, Self-Love, IMAGO, Havening, The Sex Series, and every live training replay.
Separate spaces for couples, men, and women. Not a comment section. A group of people who will actually walk with you between calls.
Spring and fall two-day events at the Holt Farm, plus family gatherings and trips throughout the year.
A monthly call for your kids, ages 6 to 18, so what you are building at home has language your whole family shares.
Custom mobile app so calls, courses, and community come with you.
What a Week Looks Like
One theme runs through the whole week, taught from four different angles. Come to one call or come to all of them.
Men only. Opens with wins and appreciations, then teaching, then live coaching on whatever the men actually brought that week.
Women only. Same theme, different room. Prayer, appreciations, teaching, and healing work done out loud with women who will not gossip about it afterward.
Both of you. Teaching on one concept, live hot seats, and breakout time with another couple who is doing the same work.
One agreement, one exercise, one conversation. Small enough to actually do, deep enough to matter.
Plus a monthly Conscious Christian Youth call for your kids, ages 6 to 18, so your family shares the same language you are learning.
The Practices
Not concepts. Named practices our members run on their own marriages, every week, for years.
Responsibility, Intent, Seek God, Ego. The self-check you run before you bring a hard thing to your spouse. Members describe it as the tool that solved fights they thought were unsolvable.
Claim responsibility rather than accept it. Whoever takes the most responsibility has the most power. This does not mean you caused what was done to you, and we are careful about that distinction.
Trace the trigger to the emotion, the emotion to the coping strategy, the coping strategy to the wound. Then let God heal the actual thing.
A structured process for cleaning up hurt before it becomes a backpack full of stones you both carry for a decade.
I see me in you. Your judgments of your spouse are the doorway into understanding yourself.
Written and read daily. Because I am, I do. Not doing something in order to finally become someone.
Compromise turns one of you into a victim. We replace the quiet assumptions that manufacture resentment with clear win-win agreements you both actually said yes to.
Twice-yearly goal setting across health, wealth, relationships, and faith, with evidence, a finish line, and how it honors God and your marriage.
Fourteen days, one prompt a day, sent to your spouse. Simple, and it undoes years of things that were never said out loud.
The Part We Cannot Put in a Bullet
Almost every couple who joins tells us the same thing: they had been looking for years for other couples who wanted to go this deep, and could not find them. Not many people want to spend a weeknight working on their marriage, honoring God in every corner of their life, and refusing to settle for average. Every couple on these calls does. For most of them, this is the first time they have not felt like the only ones.
Members describe CCM friendships as deeper than most of the ones they have in person. People who will text you back at 11pm, pray for your kid by name, and lovingly call you up and out when you are being a punk about something.
Twice a year we all get in the same room. A couples gathering at the Holt Farm, and a family gathering where members book cabins near each other and bring the kids. Several families have moved closer to the community on purpose.
We do not grow this through ads. We grow through members who bring their friends.
Being Straight With You
We would rather you know this now than three weeks in.
One of our members said it better than we could: if you are just looking for another podcast to watch or a book to consume, this will not help you. If you engage, it will be life-changing. The content is not the product. The practice is.
If you come hoping we will explain to your spouse where they are wrong, you will be disappointed early. We start with you. Most people find that harder than they expected and better than they hoped.
You do not stop having things to work on because you did a program for a year. Our longest-tenured members are eight years in and still bringing things to the room. That is the point, not a failure of it.
Members say this almost word for word, unprompted, in nearly every testimonial we have ever recorded. Nobody has ever gotten a great marriage out of a membership. They got it out of what they did with one.
Our Promise
We carry the risk. You show up. No questions, no hoops.
