Date Night Challenge

January Challenges

Over the months of Nov, Dec and Jan, we are issuing a challenge! Each date is created to bring more intentionality and FUN to your marriage and become eligible to win some fantastic prizes!

WHAT’S NEXT? We have loved engaging with you the last few months! The fun doesn’t end here!

Our class, The Marriage Course is a great next step! Studies show that couples who date are happier than those who don’t. Think of this class like 7 weekly dates.  This class is designed to support couples looking for practical ways to strengthen their relationship. This is a great starting point for couples who have never been in a marriage class or the perfect step for the couple who has done many!

Starting Mid-March! Two different day/time options to best fit with your schedule! Click the link to learn more!

Complete these 3 simple steps.

1. Pick one (or both) challenge and get it on the calendar. 

2. Snap your shot: Capture your favorite moment from your date night.

Challenge 1

Our Mixed Tape

This challenge is the perfect marriage “tune-up”. For this challenge, you are making a music playlist. To start, each of you picks three songs to share with the other.  Include a song you think your spouse would like, a song you like, and a song that reminds you of your spouse. Then discuss these questions. After you are done, upload a picture of you with your playlist written down. Feeling artsy? Design your own “album cover” and upload instead.

When completing this challenge together take some time to reflect on these questions:

BONUS: For an extra entry to win a January prize, and chance at more prizes at the February Date Night Gala (more info to come!!!), upload a video of one or both of you singing or lip syncing to one of your songs!

Mix Tape

Talk about why you picked the three songs you did.

Our 2023 Song

What is a song to add to our playlist that describes our 2023 year?

Name our Album

If 2024 was the name of an album, what would you want it to be?

Start, Stop, Continue

Compared to 2023, what is something we want to start doing, stop doing, or keep doing as a couple in 2024?

Challenge 2

Rest and Recharge

Head to your favorite coffee shop or explore one you’ve never been to. This date is about taking time to slow down. Resting individually and as a married couple helps us increase connection, prevent burnout, and gives us time to dream together. So, grab your favorite drink, find a cozy spot, and have a great conversation. Don’t forget to share your most restful photo!

Vacation

What has been your favorite vacation (or time away from normal obligations) as a couple and/or family? Why was this your favorite?

Rest

Did your family of origin take or encourage regular time to rest/slow down and if so, what did that look like?

Physical, Mental, Spiritual Rest

We all need physical, mental, and spiritual rest. Discuss what each of these could mean and how they could show up in your marriage.

Favorite Rest

What is your favorite way to rest? (ex. sleep, walk, with/without people, read, play, etc…?) Do you and your spouse like to rest similarly or differently?

Here’s to strengthening your marriage!
