Our Speakers
FamilyLife’s Weekend to Remember speakers have come to understand thoroughly the importance of God’s blueprints for marriage and are living it out in their daily lives. They are a dynamic, fun-filled group of people who are committed to both encourage and equip you and your spouse to build a godly home. Their presentations are biblically and professionally sound. It is FamilyLife’s hope that you will enjoy and gain great insight from their unique perspectives on how putting God’s plan into action will change your marriage for the better ... forever.
Each conference is presented by a combination of three speakers from our speaker team: one married couple (husband and wife) and one husband from another married couple. With more than 60 speaker couples, the actual speakers vary for each event.
