"My husband and I cannot recommend Sonya and Derrick enough. We tell all our friends who are getting married that seeing them was one of the best decisions we ever made. Unsuccessful marriages and divorce ruin more lives than car accidents do — yet there’s no “competency test” before getting a marriage license. In many ways, Sonya and Derrick are that missing step.

Through their counseling, they taught us practical tools, helped us understand our roles as husband and wife, and guided us in building a foundation rooted in love, respect, and faith. They have prayed with us, shared their wisdom, and walked beside us with genuine care.

We truly owe our joy and happiness to them. I wholeheartedly believe God placed Sonya and Derrick in our lives to bless not only our marriage, but generations to come. Their work is a gift, and we will forever be grateful for the light they’ve brought into our lives.

If you’re engaged, newly married, or seeking to strengthen your relationship, we cannot recommend them highly enough."
