When Love Meets Grace: Brittney & Adam’s Journey from Brokenness to Wholeness
Love doesn’t always start with fireworks and perfect timing. Sometimes, it begins with two people who are a little lost, a little broken, and a lot unsure of what their future holds. That was Brittney and Adam. When they first met, neither of them had a relationship with God. In fact, any kind of faith wasn’t even a conversation between them. They had both grown up knowing about God, but somewhere along the way, life had hardened their hearts. They had heard about Church, but felt like it was something from the past—irrelevant, distant, and not something they wanted or needed. Instead, they were chasing careers, fun, and a version of success that the world told them would make them happy. But the truth was, deep down, they were both searching for something “more”.
Their relationship started off strong, but like any couple, they quickly discovered that love alone wasn’t enough to sustain them. They had their share of struggles—misunderstandings, unmet expectations, and the painful realization that they didn’t always know “how” to love each other well. There were nights of slammed doors and silent treatments, moments when they both wondered if they had made a mistake. Still, they fought for each other. Something kept drawing them back together. Then, everything shifted.
It wasn’t a dramatic, lightning-strike moment, but rather a slow, steady awakening. A friend invited them to church one Sunday. They agreed to go, mostly out of politeness. But as they sat there, listening to the message, something stirred in them. It wasn’t just words—it was truth, and for the first time, they felt it in their bones. That Sunday turned into another, then another. They started asking questions, reading Scripture, and—most importantly—praying *together*. Their relationship wasn’t just growing—it was being *rebuilt* on something stronger than themselves.
They got married, choosing to put Christ at the center of their relationship from day one. It wasn’t perfect, and they still had their struggles, but they now had a foundation that wouldn’t crumble when life got hard.
The Unexpected Heartache.
One of their biggest tests came when they tried to grow their family. When they had their first child, it felt like everything had fallen into place. But as the years went by and they longed for another, the heartbreaking reality set in: they couldn’t. Doctors didn’t have clear answers. There were months of hope followed by crushing disappointment. The weight of infertility was heavier than they ever imagined, pressing in on their marriage like an invisible force.
There were nights Brittney cried herself to sleep, feeling like her body had failed her. There were days when Adam, desperate to fix things, didn’t know what to say or do. The grief was isolating, suffocating.
But instead of letting the pain drive them apart, they made a choice: to bring their sorrow to God, “together”. They clung to Scripture, reminding themselves that God’s plans were higher than their own. They wrestled with questions, yet refused to let go of their faith. And through it all, they learned to love each other in deeper, more intentional ways. Their home became a place of gratitude rather than bitterness. They poured everything they had into raising their child, choosing to embrace the gift they *had* rather than dwelling on what they didn’t.
The Turning Point: LF3 Love Factor.
Still, marriage wasn’t always easy. The weight of life—finances, exhaustion, personal struggles—threatened to pull them apart at times. They needed help, and they weren’t too proud to admit it. That’s when they found LF3 Love Factor.
At first, they weren’t sure what to expect. Would it be another generic marriage counseling or coaching? Would it really make a difference? But LF3 was different.
It wasn’t just about surface-level relationship advice; it was about *transformation*—in their marriage, in their faith, and in their *hearts*. They learned how to communicate in ways that built trust rather than walls. They learned to pray *for* each other instead of *about* each other. Most of all, they realized that intimacy—real intimacy—wasn’t just physical, but spiritual and emotional as well. LF3 didn’t just change their marriage—it changed their *connection* to God.
With every new challenge, they faced it as a team, no longer trying to navigate life alone. They learned that love wasn’t about never struggling—it was about choosing each other, every single day, no matter what.
16 Years Later: A Love Thats Enduring.
Now, sixteen years into marriage, Brittney and Adam aren’t perfect, but they *are* stronger than ever. They still dream of what their family *could* have looked like, but they refuse to let grief steal their joy. They pour their love into their child, knowing that God’s plans—even when they don’t match their own—are always good. They still face struggles, but they don’t face them alone. They have built a marriage rooted in prayer, in faith, and in a God who never stops writing their story.
To anyone out there who feels like their relationship is too broken, their struggles too big, or their hope too distant—Brittney and Adam would tell you this:
“Put God in the middle of it.”
Not just in the easy moments, but in the hard ones. Not just on Sundays, but in the late-night arguments and the tear-filled prayers. Because when you choose to anchor your marriage in Christ, when you fight for each other instead of against each other, when you let God’s love define your own—that’s when love not only survives, but thrives.
Their story isn’t perfect. But it’s real. And it’s proof once again that with God, love can endure anything.
So here’s to real love—messy, beautiful, and always worth fighting for.
