Marriage is a beautiful gift from God — but sometimes our understanding is shaped more by the world than by His Word.
At The Before and After, we gently pull back the misconceptions, sharing biblical truths and practical tools to help couples build healthy, lasting relationships. No matter where you are on your journey, there’s a place for you here. Join us at one of our gatherings, events, or discissions designed to uplift, inspire, and strengthen marriages. We look forward to welcoming you and your loved one. Stay connected for upcoming events — we can't wait to see you there! |
“Thirty years later, and we’re still saying yes — to God, to each other, and to the journey.”We’re simply Derrick and Tamika Brown — a couple who has lived the beauty and the challenges of marriage since 1994.
Like every couple, we’ve experienced the highs and lows: better and worse, sickness and health, richer and poorer. Through it all, one truth has remained — God’s hand has been faithful. Marriage isn't about finding the perfect person. It's about allowing God to perfect two willing hearts on a shared journey. After more than 30 years together, we are passionate about helping other couples grow, thrive, and walk out the love story God has written for them — both before and after they say "I do." “Perfect love isn't found; it's built — with God at the center.” |

"‘A cord of three strands is not easily broken." Ecclesiastes 4:12. Prayer keeps us connected to each other and to God. We take God seriously, but not ourselves! Laughter has been the glue, the music, and sometimes the medicine in our marriage |
