MEET THE CREATORS

Monty and Jeannine discovered love while attending college in Colorado and have been married since 1995. Like many couples, their marriage began with sparks of love, commitment, and happiness. Five years into their marriage, they encountered a marriage crisis which nearly led to divorce. Over the course of their marriage, they have learned valuable lessons, experienced both joys and hardships, and discovered the transformative power of love and faith. The difficulties in their early years shook the very foundation of their relationship where divorce seemed like the only option. Together, they put in the "hard work" by rebuilding trust, seeking out marriage counselors, and relying on their faith in God. Their desire is to extend their journey to assist and inspire others in their own marriage journey.

THEIR FAMILY

Monty and Jeannine married on September 1, 1995 and their love story produced three beautiful children. Their journey included moments of deep joy and painful loss, as Jeannine miscarried two babies. The deep loss led them down the journey of grief and healing. Despite their challenges, they have been blessed with three wonderful adult children and one daughter in-law: Kaleb and his wife Alexis, Jared, and Jenisah. Recently, Monty and Jeannine entered a new chapter as "empty-nesters", embracing this season with gratitude and anticipation for what is ahead.
