two on two coaching

Couple-to-couple guidance to help you grow closer and communicate with clarity.

Marriage is stronger when couples learn and grow together. In our Two-on-Two Coaching, you and your spouse will sit down with Aaron and Tricia in a couple-to-couple setting designed to help you connect on a deeper level and gain tools to thrive.

These sessions are created to help you:

  • Strengthen your communication and understanding as a couple.

  • Learn practical strategies for navigating the unique challenges of marriage.

  • Gain encouragement and perspective from another couple who has walked the journey.

  • Build a stronger foundation for lasting connections.

Together, you’ll walk away with fresh insight, renewed hope, and actionable steps to grow closer as husband and wife.

At this time, we are not taking new coaching clients. If you’re in Iowa, please visit Newton Church of The Way for upcoming marriage events and opportunities to get connected.

Close the Loop in Conflict

Don’t let disagreements stay open-ended. When conflict arises, take the time to talk it through, seek understanding, and offer forgiveness. “Closing the loop” means resolving the issue fully—so neither of you carries it into tomorrow. This creates peace, rebuilds trust, and keeps your hearts connected.

Ignoring conflict doesn’t solve the problem—it only continues it. Instead, take intentional steps to close the loop and protect your connection:

  1. Pray – Invite God into the process before you speak.

  2. Communicate – Share honestly and listen without interrupting.

  3. Confront the Conflict – Address the issue directly, not by sweeping it aside.

  4. Forgive – Offer and receive forgiveness freely.

  5. Rebuild Trust – Commit to moving forward with new understanding.

  6. Show God’s Love – Respond with patience, kindness, and grace.

When you choose to close the loop, you turn conflict into an opportunity for deeper intimacy and growth.
